In the seven years since the first edition of this book was completed, Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) phenomena in integrated circuits (IC) continues to be important as technologies shrink and the speed and size of the chips increases. The phenom- ena related to ESD events in semiconductor devices ta ...

This paper reviews key factors to practical ESD protection design for RF and analog/mixed-signal (AMS) ICs, including general challenges emerging, ESD-RFIC interactions, RF ESD design optimization and prediction, RF ESD design characterization, ESD-RFIC co-design technique, etc. Practical design exa ...

Why did an electricity market emerge? How does it really work? What are the perfor- mance measures that we can use to tell that the electricity market under consideration is well functioning? These are the questions that will be explored in this book. The main purpose of this book is to introduce th ...

For many years prior to the 1970s, engineers designed and built switch mode power supplies (SMPSs) using methods based largely on intuitive and exper- imentally derived techniques. In general, these power supplies were able to achieve their primary goal of high-efficiency power conversion; unfortu- ...

LIKE SO MANY OTHERS , THIS BOOK WAS WRITTEN BECAUSE WE COULDN ’ T FIND ONE LIKE IT . We needed something to hand to all of those people who have come to us asking for “a good book to read on RFID.” When we looked for candidates we found some great books, but most were aimed at electrical engineer ...

The purpose of this book is to help anyone involved in small-scale geophys- ical surveys. It is not a textbook in the traditional sense, in that it is designed for use in the field and concerns itself with practical matters – with the- ory taking second place. Where theory determines field practice ...

The purpose of this book is to present detailed fundamental information on a global positioning system (GPS) receiver. Although GPS receivers are popu- larly used in every-day life, their operation principles cannot be easily found in one book. Most other types of receivers process the input signals ...

Thank you for purchasing the Earthshine Design Arduino Starter Kit. You are now well on your way in your journey into the wonderful world of the Arduino and microcontroller electronics. This book will guide you, step by step, through using the Starter Kit to learn about the Arduino hardware, softwar ...

The purpose of this preface is twofold. Firstly, to give an informal historical introduction to the subject area of this book, Systems and Control, and secondly, to explain the philosophy of the approach to this subject taken in this book and to outline the topics that will be covered.

This introductory chapter is devoted to reviewing the fundamental ideas of control from a multivariable point of view. In some cases, the mathematics and operations on systems (modelling, pole placement, etc.), as previously treated in introductory courses and textbooks, convey to the readers an un- ...
