Radio Frequency Integrated Circuit Design I enjoyed reading this book for a number of reasons. One reason is that itaddresses high-speed analog design in the context of microwave issues. This isan advanced-level book, which should follow courses in basic circuits andtransmission lines. Most analog integrated circuit designers in the past workedon applications at low enough frequency that microwave issues did not arise.As a consequence, they were adept at lumped parameter circuits and often notcomfortable with circuits where waves travel in space. However, in order todesign radio frequency (RF) communications integrated circuits (IC) in thegigahertz range, one must deal with transmission lines at chip interfaces andwhere interconnections on chip are far apart. Also, impedance matching isaddressed, which is a topic that arises most often in microwave circuits. In mycareer, there has been a gap in comprehension between analog low-frequencydesigners and microwave designers. Often, similar issues were dealt with in twodifferent languages. Although this book is more firmly based in lumped-elementanalog circuit design, it is nice to see that microwave knowledge is brought inwhere necessary.Too many analog circuit books in the past have concentrated first on thecircuit side rather than on basic theory behind their application in communications.The circuits usually used have evolved through experience, without asatisfying intellectual theme in describing them. Why a given circuit works bestcan be subtle, and often these circuits are chosen only through experience. Forthis reason, I am happy that the book begins first with topics that require anintellectual approach—noise, linearity and filtering, and technology issues. Iam particularly happy with how linearity is introduced (power series). In therest of the book it is then shown, with specific circuits and numerical examples,how linearity and noise issues arise.

【摘要】本文结合作者多年的印制板设计经验，着重印制板的电气性能，从印制板稳定性、可靠性方面，来讨论多层印制板设计的基本要求。【关键词】印制电路板；表面贴装器件；高密度互连；通孔【Key words】Printed Circuit Board；Surface Mounting Device；High Density Interface；Via一．概述印制板（PCB－Printed Circuit Board）也叫印制电路板、印刷电路板。多层印制板，就是指两层以上的印制板，它是由几层绝缘基板上的连接导线和装配焊接电子元件用的焊盘组成，既具有导通各层线路，又具有相互间绝缘的作用。随着SMT（表面安装技术）的不断发展，以及新一代SMD（表面安装器件）的不断推出，如QFP、QFN、CSP、BGA（特别是MBGA），使电子产品更加智能化、小型化，因而推动了PCB工业技术的重大改革和进步。自1991年IBM公司首先成功开发出高密度多层板（SLC）以来，各国各大集团也相继开发出各种各样的高密度互连（HDI）微孔板。这些加工技术的迅猛发展，促使了PCB的设计已逐渐向多层、高密度布线的方向发展。多层印制板以其设计灵活、稳定可靠的电气性能和优越的经济性能，现已广泛应用于电子产品的生产制造中。下面，作者以多年设计印制板的经验，着重印制板的电气性能，结合工艺要求，从印制板稳定性、可靠性方面，来谈谈多层制板设计的基本要领。

讨论、研究高性能覆铜板对它所用的环氧树脂的性能要求，应是立足整个产业链的角度去观察、分析。特别应从HDI多层板发展对高性能CCL有哪些主要性能需求上着手研究。HDI多层板有哪些发展特点，它的发展趋势如何——这都是我们所要研究的高性能CCL发展趋势和重点的基本依据。而HDI多层板的技术发展，又是由它的应用市场——终端电子产品的发展所驱动（见图1）。 图1 在HDI多层板产业链中各类产品对下游产品的性能需求关系图 1．HDI多层板发展特点对高性能覆铜板技术进步的影响1.1 HDI多层板的问世，对传统PCB技术及其基板材料技术是一个严峻挑战20世纪90年代初，出现新一代高密度互连（High Density Interconnection，简称为 HDI）印制电路板——积层法多层板（Build—Up Multiplayer printed board，简称为 BUM）的最早开发成果。它的问世是全世界几十年的印制电路板技术发展历程中的重大事件。积层法多层板即HDI多层板，至今仍是发展HDI的PCB的最好、最普遍的产品形式。在HDI多层板之上，将最新PCB尖端技术体现得淋漓尽致。HDI多层板产品结构具有三大突出的特征：“微孔、细线、薄层化”。其中“微孔”是它的结构特点中核心与灵魂。因此，现又将这类HDI多层板称作为“微孔板”。HDI多层板已经历了十几年的发展历程，但它在技术上仍充满着朝气蓬勃的活力，在市场上仍有着前程广阔的空间。

Abstract: There are differences between the operation of low-frequency AC transformers and electronic transformersthat supply current to MR16 lamps, and there are also differences in the current draw for MR16 halogen lamps andMR16 LED lamps. These contrasts typically prevent an MR16 LED lamp from operating with most electronictransformers. This article explains how a high-brightness (HB) LED driver optimized for MR16 lamps will allow LEDlamps to be compatible with most electronic transformers.A similar version of this article appeared on Display Plus, July 7, 2012 and in German in Elektronikpraxis, October 1,2012.

A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that emits narrow-spectrum incoherent light when forward-biased.The color of the emitted light depends on the chemical composition of the semiconductor material used, and can benear-ultraviolet, visible or infrared. LEDs are more prevalent today than ever before, replacing traditional incandescent andfluorescent bulbs in many lighting applications. Incandescents use a heated filament, are subject to breakage and burnoutand operate at a luminous efficiency of 2% to 4%. Fluorescents are more efficient, at 7% to 12%, but require highdrive voltage and contain mercury, a toxic substance that may be eventually banned in certain countries. LEDs, however,produce light directly through electroluminescence, operate at low voltage and can deliver over 20% luminous efficiency.

Abstract: We don't expect manufacturers to produce clothes that in one size that fits everyone. In thesame way, one ESD component can't solve all issues—each application has different ESD requirements.Knowing that "one size fits all" cannot apply to power design, the power designer, or the engineering"super hero," must consider all the potential disruptions to a steady flow of power and thenvarious waysto mitigate them. This tutorial describes voltage- and current-limiting devices and risetime reducers tomanage the power. It also points to free and low-cost software tools to help design lowpass filters, checkcapacitor self-resonance, and simulate circuits.
