This is a new book to replace Low-Noise Electronic Design (© 1973). All the relevant topics from the original book are included and updated to today's technology. Since the emphasis has been expanded to address the total system design from sensor to simulation to design, the title has been changed to reflect the new scope.
A significant improvement is the change of technological emphasis. The first book emphasized discrete component technology with extensions to ICs. The new book focuses on 1С design concepts with added support for discrete design where necessary. Additionally, considerable theoretical expansion has been included for many of the practical concepts discussed. This makes the new book serve very well as a textbook.
Six completely new chapters have been added to support the current direction of technology. These new chapters cover the use of SPICE and PSpice for low-noise analysis and design, noise in feedback amplifiers which are extensively used in 1С designs, noise mechanisms in analog/digital and digital/analog converters, noise models for many popular sensors, power supplies and voltage references, and useful low-noise amplifier designs.
This book is intended for use by practicing engineers and by students of electronics. It can be used for self-study or in an organized classroom situation as a quarter or semester course or short course. A knowledge of electric circuit analysis, the principles of electronic circuits, and mathematics through basic calculus is assumed.
The approach used in this text is practice or design oriented. The material is not a study of noise theory, but rather of noise sources, models, and methods to deal with the every-present noise in electronic systems.
This new book serves the following users:
1. The academic community, where the new book can be used (and has been at Georgia Tech) as a textbook for a one-quarter or one-semester electrical engineering course in low-noise electronic design. Derivations are added for clarity and completeness. Many original problems developed in over 15 years of teaching this course are included at the end of each chapter. Key points are summarized in every chapter.
2. Electronic design engineers who design with integrated circuits or discrete components. The new book describes the fundamental noise mechanisms and introduces useful noise models. It shows the details of how feedback can be employed to meet system and circuit specifications. Derivations and modeling approaches are given which are useful for determining the noise in active and passive components as well as in power supplies. This approach is directed toward supporting the total system design concept. Typical, low-noise design examples are provided, analyzed, and discussed. Laboratory techniques for noise measurement and instrumentation complete the coverage.
3. Project engineers who design and build low-noise integrated circuits. The new book contains complete descriptions of the noise models of all important active devices: MOSFETs, JFETs, GaAs FETs, and BJTs. Modeling is done in terms of the SPICE, Gummel-Poon, Curtice, and hybrid-ir models. Chapters on low-noise design methodology and single-stage and multistage amplifier design approaches will aid and direct the project design engineers. Furthermore, the chapter on noise measurement will permit them to test and characterize their new devices and new circuit designs.
4. Digital designers who convert very low level analog signals into suitable digital logic levels. The chapters on noise mechanisms, amplifier noise modeling, and sensor noise models enable them to define fundamental noise limits and to specify design requirements. The chapters on low-noise design methodology plus the included sample circuits will enable them to produce functional preamplifier and amplifier interface stages which bridge the analog and digital technologies. Finally, the material on the noise mechanisms in A/D and D/A converters will enable them to evaluate and solve the critical analog-digital interface and partitioning problems.
There is no other book in the present market that directly competes with Low-Noise Electronic System Design. Usually, noise in ICs is addressed in textbooks as a section or maybe as a complete chapter. Industrial 1С manuals treat noise mostly from a specification and test point of view. The PSpice manual produced by MicroSim Corporation for use with their simulation programs only covers noise modeling. One can find trade journal articles and application notes on low noise design methodology. Digital noise is now being addressed more in the literature. Noise measurement is covered in some textbooks and application notes. But all these subjects are covered in Low-Noise Electronic System Design. In addition, this book pulls together the whole subjects of noise combined with design. It provides descriptions of noise sources and noise models, addresses the practical problems of circuit design for low-noise employing negative feedback, filtering, component noise, measurement techniques and instrumentation, and finally gives many examples of practical amplifier designs.
In summary, Low-Noise Electronic System Dsskp. is a textbook for the study of low-noise design, an 1С design textbook, and a design manual covering the complete subject of noise from theory, to modeling, to design, to final application.
This book is an outgrowth of our many years of research, development, design, and teaching experience. Special recognition is given to Honeywell, Inc., and the Georgia Institute of Technology for their cooperation and support.
