Abstract :
When I arrived at the University of California (UC), Berkeley, in the fall of 1969 looking for a master´s project, I had no idea what I was getting into. My adviser, Prof. Bob Meyer, suggested that I try to understand the sources of electrical noise in an integrated operational amplifier. This sounded like a challenging balance of potentially valuable work and dauntingly unfamiliar analytical techniques.
