Electronic Filter Design Handbook, Fourth Edition (McGraw-Hill Handbooks)

Customer Reviews:

good news, bad news

By it - November 11, 2006

As the title states, this is a handbook and not a textbook. It summarizes a vast amount of information about filters without giving any derivations. It is best used by people who occasionally need a filter design.

By Austin McElroy "Austin in Austin" - February 12, 2008

I was looking for a good reference book on filter design and got several samples sent to my Kindle and liked this one the best. He is very clear in his terminology and ideas the book covers a good deal of information.

The poor rating is given do to the size of the pictures. There is a particular picture showing LC filters that would be wonderful, but the text/symbols are way to small and using the Kindle zoom feature resolves nothing. There were several other pictures throughout that were like this.

Summary: Great text and information but the diagrams and things worth trying and testing are impossible to see.
