Hi All,

In searching for more info on the LM3900, I came across a book that looks
interesting: "49 Easy Electronic Projects for Transconductance & Norton Op
Amps" by Delton Horn.

The table o' contents looks promising (Norton and OTA info, applications
like VCOs and VCAs). It looks to be out of print, but Amazon shows half a
dozen used copies with prices ranging from $5 to $20US. I've just ordered
one, so I'll know in about a week if there's anything interesting in it. Has
anyone else seen this book?

Harry, if the LM3900 is a piece of poop ("LM3900 is NOT an opamp" and "has
no precision"), are the other common OTAs a better choice?
