Summary: What a wonderful book on operational amplifiers!
Review: Dr. Johan H. Huijsing is the most famous expert on operational amplifiers. I had been waiting for quite long time since I knew he was going to publish this great book on OPAM last year.I believe I am one of first several lucky guys who could read this masterpiece first. When I went to IEEE ISSCC 2001 conference at San Francisco in February 2001, I found Kluwer had .... I grabbed a book without any hesitation, and after I gave my credit card information to a Kluwer representative, all books were gone. It's so hot! Dr. Huijsing has written several books on OPAM, and I think this book is the most comprehensive one. It addresses definitions of OPAMs, macromodels, applications, input and output stages, fully differential OPAMs and operational floating amplifiers, and shows some design examples. It presents nine design topologies to readers so you can pick up OPAM design very quickly and efficiently through different configurations. Dr. Huijsing also spends lots of efforts addressing low-power lower-voltage design techniques. Though CMOS technology is mainstream today, biploar and BiCMOS technologies are well elaborated in the book, and Dr. Huijsing makes very good comparisons among them, which could be particularly helpful to RF engineers. Of course, one book cannot cover everything. I suggest you read some other good books from Dr. Huijsing, Dr. Razavi and Dr. David Johns etc. as well while you enjoying this wonderful book. ....

Summary: Need improvement.
Review: This is a good book to have if you are an opamp designer.
But, I expect the author can do a lot better job than this with this high price.
It skips lots of discussions, I feel like that he just wanted to finish write a book without too much attention.
I hope he can prepare a second edition with more detailed stuff.
For example, I wanted a details of nested miller compensation, but I could not understand it yet from this book.
