This second edition of the number one guide to oscillator design presents a comprehensive, unified approach to oscillator design that can be used with a wide range of active devices and resonator types. Resonator types covered include: L-C, crystal, SAW, dielectric resonator, coaxial line, stripline and microstrip. This text covers modern CAD synthesis and analysis techniques and is valuable to experienced engineers as well as to those new to oscillator design. The books topics include: Analysis fundamentals, oscillator fundamentals, limiting and starting, biasing, noise, computer simulation and examples and case studies.
An updated guide to the design of oscillator circuits Here is an essential engineering tool for keeping up with the rapid growth in communications technology. You'll find a clear, step-by-step approach to the design of oscillators for a variety of applications, including wireless voice and data communication, instrument, consumer, satellite, and other RF and microwave systems. THe new edition of this surefire guide features: Complete details on the design of L-C, transmission line, crystal quartz, and SAW oscillators; Cutting-edge computer simulation materials; CAD techniques integrated into processes from start to finish; An approach that can be applied to any active device and any resonator technology. Filled with real-life examples and case studies, the Second Edition of this vital resource offers you the basic skills needed to develop your own state-of-the-art designs--instead of merely modifying previous circuits.
