National Semiconductor Audio/Radio Handbook

Martin Giles, Technical Editor

Reprint of the 1980 handbook produced by National Semiconductor for the application of operational amplifiers to audio circuits.The introduction presents a detailed explanation of the IC parameters applied to audio followed by chapters on design of preamps, tone controls, filters, power amplification, radio, and others. The "Floobydust" section is a mixed grab bag of miscellaneous topics not covered elsewhere.

2000, 1980, 209pp., 7 1/2" x 9 1/4", softbound.
