Everyone should have one
I'm a big fan of the metric system, and it breaks my heart every day that our country goes without it. However, just because our country uses a less popular system, doesn't mean all of its citizens have to. That's why this converter comes in handy. Thanks to it, I can live my life in liters and meters, while everyone else is bumbling along in gallons and feet. I use it to convert speed limit ...

A new Classic!
Over the past 30 years, I have acquired quite a few classic books in the field of electronics, such as Gray and Meyer, Sedra and Smith, Streetman, etc. In the area of switchers, this is a classic that every Engineer working with switchers should have on his bookshelf! This guy is the Bob Pease of switchers. After you have read one of the ordinary books on Switchers, get this one for all ...

Had What I needed.
Although a little light on full converter schematics, this textbook contained excellent descriptions of converter building blocks and semiconductor device physics. It is excellent that it came with a simulator program too.

GM Automatic Overdrive Transmission Builder's and Swapper's Guide (Sa Design)
Cliff Ruggles

S-A Design, 2008

There's an important component standing between your engine and your drive wheels: the transmission. Inside that metal case is a bewildering array of gears, bearings, seals, and more. The automatic transmission is a miracle of modern engineering, but it can also be a source of trouble. If your transmission breaks down you're not going anywhere, and if it's just not working properly, your car will never realize its performance potential. In ...

Fundamentals of Power Electronics (Second Edition)

Springer, 2001

Excellent, full of examples, easy to follow
This book is one of the best, most thorough and well explained textbooks I have encountered in the past 5 years of school. The authors, one of whom is teaching my course, present their explanations in a way that is both thorough and accessible. This is not a cookbook by any means - it is a very solid, detailed foundation for power electronics, and doesn't gloss over the important concepts like ...

A partisan review of the book from "Analog Dialogue"
At last! A modern book on data conversion worthy to succeed our 1986 landmark Analog-Digital Conversion Handbook (3rd edition). The Data Conversion Handbook is based on the book, Analog-Digital Conversion, a comprehensive set of notes for a recent Analog Devices seminar series on data converters. In a digital world, A/D and D/A conversion is essential to translate between analog real-world ...

McGraw-Hill Professional, 2008

Best of the Best
Christophe Basso worked very hard giving years of his life to produce the best Switch-Mode Power Supply book available, by far. I have a large collection of books on SMPS and although many are very good books, they are not nearly as complete or practical as Basso's book. He derives all his equations and then shows many real world example designs from start to finish. In my opinion and the ...

SPIE Publications, 2007

Excellent in every way; a must-have!
This is a tremendously important text if you want a quantitative method for characterizing image sensors. I cannot think of a better book in or out of print focused on measurement of the details of the operation of image sensors. Coupled with Jim's book on Scientific CCDs, the two volumes are a must-have on any engineer's bookshelf that is interested in the technology, design, use and ...

Richard Schreier, Gabor C. Temes

Wiley-IEEE Press, 2004

A Univied, Consistent Approach
Much of the recent literature on digital signal processing has concentrated on the digital aspects of the task. The result is a surplus of books on the digital signal processing chips and programming techniques. In the real world you have a signal and you need it digitized, or you have some digital data and you need a real life signal that you can send out somewhere. The real world refuses to ...

Outstanding Book.
I found this book to be superbly written. The author covers all aspects of thyrister controlled converters and inverters. He has tremendous knowledge of the subjet. After reading this book, I've come to completely understand particular characteristics of electric motors. Some examples are: the four quadrant operation of motors; dynamic and regenerative braking, and the difference between the two; ...

It is a good reference book if you are involved of Power supplies. I recomended it just for a book of reference.

Pulse Width Modulation for Power Converters: Principles and Practice (IEEE Press Series on Power Engineering)

D. Grahame Holmes, Thomas A. Lipo

Wiley-IEEE Press, 2003

PWM for Power Converters
This is not the type of book with practical applications. The book is rather heavy in the Math department. By page 57, one could find themselves knee deep in mathematical equations. However, this is an excellent text book about Harmonic Distortion and PWM Modulation Techniques. No designer of Rectifiers, Inverters, or Motor Controllers should be without it. This is an excellent reference ...

Data Converters
Franco Maloberti

Springer, 2007

This book is the first graduate-level textbook presenting a comprehensive treatment of Data Converters. The advancement of digital electronics urged the availability of a still missing support for teaching and self-learning analog-digital interfaces at many levels: the specification, the conversion methods and architectures, the circuit design and the testing. This book, after the necessary study of the background theoretical elements, ...

What an adventure!
I did the right thing - I ordered this AND the venerable Abrahamson book. Up until that time I had only discerned the subject in hints and veiled inter departmental discussions - and it was the start of a wonderful two months period in which so much was revealed - I have rarely enjoyed a book so much! Now look, I don't work for Mr Amazon.com, but I would urge you to get both. This book (the one ...

CMOS Integrated Analog-to-Digital and Digital-to-Analog Converters

Rudy J. van de Plassche

Springer, 2003

incomprehensible
The book covers different Data Converter architectures. The coverage by itself is not sufficient to undertake a data converter design rather it should be treated as a starting point. However, this is not why I am giving this book a "one star". The book is almost incomprehensible. Sentence structures are awkward and confusing. Sometimes, I wonder even a good editor could salvage this book. Bottom ...

Troubleshooting Switching Power Converters: A Hands-on Guide

The perfect template for Troubleshooting
I have both of Sanjaya's other books, and was a reviewer on the second one. Both are excellent, so I had to read this one. I was amazed! He has exceeded my expectations. You built it; it sort of works; the efficiency is a little off, the ripple is a little high, now what? This book covers everything from which transformer winding to put on first, whether the feedback resistor should be next ...

Delta-Sigma Data Converters: Theory, Design, and Simulation

4 reviews

Wiley-IEEE Press, 1996

A comprehensive discussion of issues in sigma delta mod.
This is the only book I know of that gives such a thorough discussion on the state of the art in sigma delta modulation, including design tips and insight into the authors' own experiences. A necessity for anyone considering the design of a high-order modulator. It is not an introductory text, and does assume basic knowledge in signal processing and A/D conversion in general.
