| This book discusses state-of-the-art power management techniques of modern electronic appliances relying on such Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) chips as CPUs and DSPs.
It also covers specific circuit design issues and their implications, including original derivation of important expressions. This book is geared toward systems and applications, although it also gets into the specific technical aspects of discrete and integrated solutions, like the analysis of circuits within the power chips which power PCs and other modern electronics.
The first half of this book is a good complement to classic semiconductor text books because it deals with the same complex issues in a more conversational way. It avoids completely the use of complex expressions and minimizing the use of formulas to useful ones, that allow us to plug values in and get an actual result.
The second half of the book is a broad review of the modern technology landscape seen through the eyes of the power management engineer, continually challenged by the rising complexity of modern electronic appliances. |

Write Great Code: Understanding the Machine
This, the first volume in Randall Hyde’s Write Great Code series, dives into machine organization without the extra overhead of learning assembly language programming. Written for C/C++, VB, Pascal, Java, and other high-level language programmers, Volume I, “Understanding the Machine,” fills in the low-level details... | | | | Creating Leaderful Organizations: How to Bring Out Leadership in EveryoneLeadership has traditionally resided in one person with many followers. This book presents a new model of mutual leadership, which transforms leadership from one individual's responsibility into a new way of working for everyone.
Creating Leaderful Organizations demonstrates the bottom-line benefits of this model, shows how it is already... |
