Very sad news: Jim Williams of Linear Technology Corp—one of the world's
best analog-circuit designers, experimenter, hands-on guy, project genius,
damn nice guy, story teller, mentor, eternal student, engineer, collector of
historical scientific instruments, master of true and measurable precision
and accuracy, and much more—passed away unexpectedly. Many of you know of
him though his detailed, voluminous application notes, or his many articles
in EDN.
I knew Jim for decades, his sheer love of engineering and experimentation
was always a pleasure to absorb; he was a no-nonsense person who liked
tangible things and did not fall under the sway of "hot" trends as the
solution to all your problems, whether it was software, Twitter, or Facebook
. I recently saw him in his lab at LTC, and our encounter inspired this
column, here. Due to his talents and accomplishments, Jim could easily have
gotten away with being a know-it-all expert and pundit, but he was actually
fairly humble and had genuine humility, as he wrestled the demons of circuit
and component reality, usually winning (and sometimes losing).
Jim began his career in the MIT Nutrition Lab, building circuits and systems
for their experiments and research. As far I know, he was not a formally
degreed EE; he was largely self-taught. He traveled back to MIT each year to
give a guest lecture to EEs and also do some recruiting and outreach on the
joys of analog.
Jim was a man who truly understood the analog signal chain, what it could do
, what it couldn’t do, its vagaries and foibles, and how to make it do what
you wanted despite pushback of the laws of physics. His mind was "one" with
op amps, converters, references, and power supplies. He will be sorely
missed by his family, friends, and the engineering community. I invite and
encourage any of you who knew him, or knew of him, to add a comment below.

this is really sad, I love his book entitled The Art and Science of Analog
Circuit Design, it's hilarious.

我怎么感觉他这本书纯粹是坑爹.
除了一群老头会议光辉过去,没有任何实际内容.
