OK - so I got to teach ADC/DAC IC design at UCSD in the winter quarter - time to start preparing the course -

Whats the latest and greatest teaching textbooks out there for converter design?

I have the Razavi book on converters, and the Temes book on Delta-Sigma, - but what else have you folks seen and like?

thanks,
Jerry

I would not recommend the book of van de Plassche for a lecture. Many topics are just a collection of papers and the writing is bad (typos) and difficult to follow.
I think it is better the read the original papers if you need practical examples.

Hi Jerry,

I have not found much good material for teaching students in most books. The best I have seen so far are the sections on data conversion in the text by Johns & Martin. Razavi's text is also OK and so is the green book but Johns & Martin does the best job in my opinion although it is a bit short on detail. All this of course for beginners. If you want to teach a more advanced class, you need to make your own notes or borrow from Boris Murmann.

Do let us know if you find some more good material, will you?

Just went through your material. Loved the control systems analysis of
everything. Generally everybody avoids it during teaching.
I think Franco Maloberti's book suits you very well. A nice literature from
an excellent researcher

there are lots of bits and pieces out there - mostly jouirnal articles, and little pieces of textbooks.

In all my free time,  (LOL!) maybe I need to write a book.
