{"product_id":"b0br67qbtl","title":"From Resistor to AM \u0026 FM Radios: Analog Electronics with applications to Audio and Radio circuit design (7e)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book, now in its  seventh  edition, provides an introduction to  transistor  and  diode  based circuit design of  Audio Amplifiers ,  AM \u0026amp; FM radio receivers , and  AM radio transmitters . The transistor internals of the famous  555 timer  chip and the  LM386 audio amplifier  chip are covered in detail. Moreover, a design of a  MOSFET  based  AGC  ( Automatic Gain Control ) stage that can fit with the  LM386  and practically any other audio amplifier is presented in detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e* AM radio receiver designs  - on the basis of a diode detector (a specialized diode is not required, and any ordinary diode like the common  1N4148  can be used). Needless to say the diode detector doesn't stand on its own, but is attached to preceding and subsequent buffering and amplifying stages, resulting in a complete radio receiver - from antenna to speaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e* Two AM modulator designs  (to generate an AM signal) - one  diode  based and the other based on a  differential amplifier transistor  design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e* FM radio receiver designs -  An FM radio receiver which amplifies and down-converts the antenna signal with the help of purchased products, but then proceeds with an entirely custom transistor and diode based discrete circuit design to demodulate the frequency down-converted signal and amplify the extracted audio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e*  a  MOSFET  based  Automatic Gain Control  ( AGC ) circuit to automatically attenuate the amplitude of the audio signal prior to its reaching the audio amplifier for further amplification, if the audio signal too large. It can work with the  LM386  ot other audio amplifiers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":52821085126872,"sku":"YSL37273","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0835\/3356\/2072\/files\/71DO66THEQL._SY1500.jpg?v=1793100336","url":"https:\/\/www.bookmebay.com\/products\/b0br67qbtl","provider":"BookMebay","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
