Best Analog Electronics Reference Books for Circuit Design and Learning

The discussion focuses on recommended reference books for analog electronics circuit design and learning. Key suggested titles include "Microelectronic Circuits" by Sedra and Smith, "Electronic Circuits" by Nilsson and Riedel, "Design with Operational Amplifiers" by Franco, and "Microwave Engineering" by Pozar. Additional important references are "CMOS Analog Circuit Design" by Allen and Holberg, "Design of Analog CMOS Integrated Circuits" by Behzad Razavi, "Circuit Design, Layout, and Simulation" by R. Jacob Baker, "Analog Integrated Circuit Design" by Johns and Martin, "Analog Design Essentials" by Willy Sansen, and "Analog Design for CMOS VLSI Systems" by Franco Maloberti. For understanding operational amplifiers, "Analog Circuits: World Class Designs" by Robert Pease is recommended. The discussion also touches on the fundamental concepts of analog electronics, including signal variability and the role of transducers like microphones. Some participants mention digital design references such as "SystemVerilog for Design" and "SystemVerilog for Verification" for those interested in digital circuit design. The emphasis is on analog system design rather than microelectronics, with operational amplifiers highlighted as essential building blocks in analog circuits.
