Aus der Reihe "Stromversorgung ohne Stress" (Band 4) Renaissance der linearen Stromversorgungen Mittlerweile gibt es fast nur noch Schaltnetzteile. Da diese rauschen und stören, sind sie nicht für alle Einsatzzwecke die beste Wahl. Ursache sind durch den Schaltbetrieb erzeugte Hochfrequenzschwingungen, die in die Netzleitung und die Umgebung strahlen. Lineare Netzteile liefern Gleichspannungen von höchster Qualität. Über Brummen und Rauschen braucht man sich wenig Sorgen zu machen. Auch der Aufbau ist im Vergleich zu Schaltnetzteilen unkritisch. Wenn man überhaupt von Nachteilen bei linearen Netzteilen sprechen kann, wäre nur das höhere Gewicht zu nennen. Lineare Stromversorgungen sind auch einfach zu verstehen, können aus Standard-Bauteilen aufgebaut werden, sind leicht zu modifizieren und reparaturfähig und damit nachhaltig. In diesem Buch geht es um den Entwurf und den Bau von linearen Stromversorgungssystemen für kleine und große Leistungen. Aber auch Randthemen wie die lineare Steuerung von Verbrauchern und Kompromissen aus Kombinationen von Schaltnetzteil und linearem Netzteil oder Hilfsschaltungen wie lineare Lasten sind Bestandteil des Buches. Bei dieser Gelegenheit gibt es ausreichend Raum für die Besprechung der Grundlagen, der technischen Details, der Fallstricke und von Tipps und Tricks.

Auch heute noch klingen Röhrenverstärker zweifellos phantastisch, möglicherweise sogar noch faszinierender als in früheren Zeiten. Gegenwärtig verfügen wir über moderne Bauteile und Materialien, wie z. B. Ringkern-Ausgangsübertrager, ausgesprochen hochwertige Widerstände, Kondensatoren und allerlei, die Übertragungseigenschaften nicht beeinflussende Drahtsorten. Hinzu kommen hochqualitative Tonträger wie CD-Spieler und ebenso hochwertige Lautsprecher, die die überragenden klanglichen Eigenschaften von Röhrenverstärkern erst richtig zur Geltung kommen lassen. Das vorliegende Buch behandelt zwar auch die Theorie, mehr jedoch richtet sich die Aufmerksamkeit auf die Entwurfsphase dieser Verstärker, innerhalb derer die projektierten Eigenschaften und gestellten Anforderungen formuliert werden müssen. In welchem Zusammenhang stehen subjektive und objektive Kriterien? Welche Schaltungsvarianten entwickeln überzeugende klangliche Eigenschaften und warum? Welche Probleme sind zu lösen, wenn man einen Röhrenverstärker entwickeln und diesen käuflich vertreiben möchte? Was genau sagen uns messtechnische Analysen eines Gerätes und wie sind die gewonnenen Ergebnisse zu interpretieren, welche Aussagekraft besitzen sie? Aufgrund der überwältigenden Rechengeschwindigkeit moderner Computer sind wir in der Lage, ausgesprochen präzise Messungen mit vergleichsweise geringem Aufwand innerhalb kürzester Zeit durchzuführen. Aber: Wie lassen sich diese Möglichkeiten sinnvoll auf Röhrenverstärker anwenden? Bislang war die messtechnische Erfassung des Frequenzganges, der Ausgangsleistung und des Klirrverhaltens eines Verstärkers ausreichend, um sich ein hinreichend aussagekräftiges Bild von dessen Übertragungseigenschaften zu verschaffen. Es muss aber die Frage gestellt werden, ob die Erfassung solcher Messwerte tatsächlich genügt zu ermitteln, wie unser Ohr die reproduzierten Klangereignisse wahrnimmt, oder ob wir nicht besser mit realen musikalischen, dynamischen Signalen anstelle von statischen Messfrequenzen arbeiten sollten. Der Autor entwirft in diesem Buch Kriterien für zukünftige Messverfahren, die die Eigenschaften unseres Gehörs mit berücksichtigen und die damit zu neuen Einsichten und Erkenntnissen führen. Dieses Buch schildert die Zusammenhänge überwiegend praxisorientiert und vermittelt eine neue Perspektive, gewissermaßen einen von außen gerichteten Blick auf den Röhrenverstärker. Dabei wird bereits Bekanntes mit einbezogen und in anschaulicher Weise in neue Zusammenhänge integriert.

If you have the right tools, designing a microprocessor shouldn’t be complicated. The Verilog hardware description language (HDL) is one such tool. It can enable you to depict, simulate, and synthesize an electronic design, and thus increase your productivity by reducing the overall workload associated with a given project.Monte Dalrymple’s Microprocessor Design Using Verilog HDL is a practical guide to processor design in the real world. It presents the Verilog HDL in a straightforward fashion and serves as a detailed introduction to reducing the computer architecture and as an instruction set to practice. You’re led through the microprocessor design process from start to finish, and essential topics ranging from writing in Verilog to debugging and testing are laid bare.The book details the following, and more: Verilog HDL Review: data types, bit widths/labeling, operations, statements, and design hierarchy Verilog Coding Style: files vs. modules, indentation, and design organization Design Work: instruction set architecture, external bus interface, and machine cycle Microarchitecture: design spreadsheet and essential worksheets (e.g., Operation, Instruction Code, and Next State) Writing in Verilog: choosing encoding, assigning states in a state machine, and files (e.g., defines.v, hierarchy.v, machine.v) Debugging, Verification, and Testing: debugging requirements, verification requirements, testing requirements, and the test bench Post Simulation: enhancements and reduction to practice Monte Dalrymple received a BSEE (with highest honors) and an MSEE from the University of California at Berkeley, where he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. Monte started his career at Zilog, where he designed a number of successful products, including the Serial Communication Controller (SCC) family and the Universal Serial Controller (USC) family. He was also the architect and lead designer of the Z380 microprocessor. Monte started his own company, Systemyde International Corp., in 1995, and has been doing contract design work ever since. He designed all five generations of Rabbit microprocessors, a Z180 clone that is flying on the Juno mission to Jupiter, and a Z8000 clone that flies in a commercial avionics air data computer. Monte holds 16 patents as well as both amateur and commercial radio licenses. Monte wrote 10 articles for Circuit Cellar magazine between 1996 and 2010. He recently completed a side project to replace the CPU in an HP-41C calculator with a modern FPGA-based version.
