Bonnie Baker would be proud...

That idea has been round since about the 1920s, and keeps getting reinvented. A much better method is to use capacitive feedback and fix up the frequency response in the second stage.

Oops - sorry for linking to that nonsense, I didn't notice that the article was 10 years old (EDN sent me a link to it today for some reason).

EDN used to be a good read back in the 80's.

It has so little real content now. The new owners filled it up with interviews and photos of amateur workshops, reprints of old articles, pointless long articles about power management in chip design (as if any significant number of the regular readers are chip designers!) and now, many MANY pages of advertising for Flowcode.

Strip all that out, and you have a rosy little pamphlet that *still* has very little useful technical content. Except for Robert Lacoste's work, which is great. We need to find him a new platform, he's wasted at CC.

I used to like Circuit Cellar too, when Steve Ciarcia was running it.

I'm looking for work... see my website.

Thinking outside the box... producing elegant solutions.

Yes. I was a long time subscriber. Then Steve sold out and the price about doubled. I dropped it then.

I never bought into CC - it always seemed to be 101 variations of the same circuit. In fact I never thought much of any of the US magazines.

IMHO Wireless World topped them all (at least until the late 80's)

I liked " Ham Radio ", but it was bought out by CQ and that was the end of that.
