Bob Pease & other gods

[Paul Perry]

on the subject of analog electronic design gods, how about Jim Williams from
chipmakers Linear Technology.....he has edited 2 collections where his
fellow olympians rave about personal experiences in analog design....these
are in the "EDN Series for Design Engineers", the books are 
"The Art and Science of Analog Circuit Design" and
"Analog Circuit Design: Art, Science, and Personalities"

for a very nice bit of ckt by JW see Linear Technology 1990 Linear
applications Handbook application note 14 pages 14 to 16 for an oct/volt
10Hz-20KHz stabilised VCO - if you try to build it the best place for Linear
parts (no matter where in the world you are) is Digikey mailorder, and in my
copy of the app notes there is a misprint making the temperature control
feedback loop positive.....fixed in later copies.....
