This text discusses sigma-delta-type function circuits, peak-detecting function circuits, and peak-sampling function circuits in a detailed manner. It further covers all the function circuits designed by using the basic principles of the six building blocks: the integrator, the 555 timer integrated circuit, the switch, the low-pass filter, the peak detector, and the sample and hold circuit. It is a useful reference text for senior undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of electrical engineering and electronics and communication engineering. This book is accompanied by teaching resources, including a solution manual for the instructors.
• Discusses function circuits such as multipliers, dividers, and multipliers cum dividers using the 555 timer.
• Explains how function circuits are developed with a simple integrator and the 555 timer.
• Extends the applications of 555 timers to perform in-function circuits.
• Covers important topics such as monostable multivibrator, inverting amplifier, and peak responding divider.
• Presents function circuit conversion such as multiplier to square root and divider to a multiplier.
This comprehensive book covers the design of function circuits with the help of 555 timer integrated circuits in a single volume. It further discusses how derived function circuits are implemented with integrators, comparators, low-pass filters, peak detectors, and sample-and-hold circuits.
