The second of two volumes, this is a comprehensive treatment of nonlinear circuits, introducing the advanced topics that professionals need to understand for their RF (radio frequency) circuit design work.

Students and practicing engineers equipped with rudimentary exposure to circuit theory and/or microelectronics can read this book and grasp the entire spectrum of high-frequency circuit principles involving passive and active discrete devices, transmission lines, filters, amplifiers, mixers, oscillators and their design procedures. Lengthy mathematical derivations are either relegated to the appendices or placed in examples, thereby separating dry theoretical details from the main text.

This book provides complete design procedures for multiple,pole Butterworth, Chebyshev, and Bessel filters. It also covers capacitors, inductors, and other components with their behavior at RF frequencies.
