Widlar, Bob Pease, and Jim Williams are all worth reading about if you're not familiar. Bigwig semiconductor designers from a bygone age.
There are some great application notes by Jim Williams from his time at Linear Tech if analog design application notes are your thing.
- madengr 7y agoThis book is good:https://www.amazon.com/Analog-Circuit-Design-Personalities-Engineers/dp/0750696400/ref=pd_aw_fbt_14_img_2/131-3927906-3954338?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=0750696400&pd_rd_r=abd8fe5e-7fdf-11e9-a3fd-f157ef2b5308&pd_rd_w=B4Qj4&pd_rd_wg=cvztd&pf_rd_p=3ecc74bd-d08f-44bd-96f3-d0c2b89f563a&pf_rd_r=8ZVEQ66K5E55511PWR19&psc=1&refRID=8ZVEQ66K5E55511PWR19 https://www.amazon.com/Analog-Circuit-Design-Personalities-E...
- pjc50 7y agoMy favourite Bob Pease article, about being extremely methodical in the measurement of small currents: https://www.electronicdesign.com/test-amp-measurement/whats-all-femtoampere-stuff-anyhow https://www.electronicdesign.com/test-amp-measurement/whats-... Someone has a "best of" Jim Williams: http://readingjimwilliams.blogspot.com/p/best-app-notes.html http://readingjimwilliams.blogspot.com/p/best-app-notes.html Some while ago I wrote a blog post about how fantastic app note 47 was; very much "nothing like this will be built again".
