This text presents the basic principles of op-amps and integrated circuits, with a very practical approach. It provides the latest available information, while retaining its blend of theory and... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a rebuttal to Mr. Sanders review, which I found to be unfair and untrue. I have the second edition of this book which was used as the text for an undergrad course taken in 1988. I have found this text an invaluable resource. The equations are well derived and the examples provide a good foundation to op-amp circuit design. This text is a good reference for beginner and experienced engineers alike. I find it highly unlikely that the fourth edition would be a step backward from the second edition.
Great Book!

This book is well written even for a 12 year old. The math isn't too complex. I don't know if the previous reviewer has any formal electrical/electronics education; maybe that should be the place to start. I think this book does a better job than "The Art Of Electronics", in explaing how Op-Amps really work. But don't let this book be the end all to be all. Until an author writes a book that combines everything about Electronics, use as many books as possible. I have not found one book that can compare to 10 books on the same subject. Maybe the "Grey" book.
