For the THEORY of all this stuff, the holy bible is "Analog Integrated Circuit Design" by Grey and Meyer. Doug
Curtis and I wear out 1 copy a year!! I think the 3rd edition is out.
If you want to know HOW and WHY the CEM and SSM chips work, this is the place. And the math isn't that bad.

A design book I like and use a lot is "Designing with Off-the-Shelf
Integrated Circuits" by Z.H.Meiksin and Philip C. Thackray. It has very
good coverage of most factors relating to analog synthesizer design. It has
good coverage on different types of passive components, low-noise analog
design and grounding and shielding. Written in a very friendly fashion for
a technical book - each chapter has a section called "Pitfalls to Avoid".
Recommended even for beginners, there's enough math, but not too much math.
Anyone else have technical books they have a fondness for?
And just so we don't have the same response posted ten times, let me invoke
the name of the mighty Bob Pease right away!
