Thanks Skfir for pointing out the following typos. I have entered the corrections from page 9 into the master copy at ibiblio.org

"If a varicap diode is part of a resonant circuit as in Figure above, the frequency my be varied with a control voltage, Vcontrol."

Is it to be may instead of my?
http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_3/chpt_3/12.html

"Another PIN diode application is a the antenna switch here for a direction finder receiver."

Here something seems to be wrong as well.
http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_3/chpt_3/13.html

"Diodes based on organic chemicals have been produce using low temperature processes."

Sorry, I am far from being an expert in E grammar, but should it be have been produced?

"The approximage voltage gain of the C-E amplifier in Figure belowb is -RL/REE."

Approximate? Below?

"This restores the AC gain since the resistor is a short for AC signals."

Isn't a capacitor a short for ac signals?

I did notice a correction the other day at: http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_2/chpt_6/6.html

In paragraph 2:



Spelling correction, should obviously be "circuits",

Dave
thanks Dave,

I have entered it at ibiblio.org

http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_3/chpt_4/15.html

" The the semiconductor die in the TO-220 and TO-247 plastic packages is mounted to a heat conductive metal slug which transfers heat from the back of the package to a metal heatsink, not shown"

Two "the"s in a row.
Thanks Skfir, I have corrected it at ibiblio.org

the same place:

"electrically isolate the these from a grounded heatsink by an interposed mica or polymer washer. "

something seems to be wrong here.
Thanks Skfir, I got it.

http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_3/chpt_4/16.html

"This distortion distortion is unacceptable in many applications like high-fidelity audio."

the word distortion is repeated twice.
Thanks Skfir, I have entered it.

http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_4/chpt_8/6.html

"We will use the form on the right" - the period is absent.
Thanks Skfir, this typo is about 7 years old. I have fixed it at ibiblio.org

http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_4/chpt_8/8.html

"The solid red group is (A'+B), the dashed red group is (C'+D). "

The solid region is actually blue...
Skfir, thanks for another 7-year old error. It is entered at ibiblio.org

http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_4/chpt_12/1.html

"A parallel-in/laralel-out shift register" - is it to be written parallel, not laralel?
Thanks Skfir, I got it.


http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_4/chpt_12/4.html

"Note that serial-in/ serial-out shift registers come in gigger than 8-bit lengths of 18 to to 64-bits." - What does gigger mean?
I have changed it to bigger at ibiblio

This concludes the corrections that I am able to make. By that I mean that I do not have access to the worksheets.

Thanks to all for bringing ll of these corrections to my attention, especially Skfir.

Dennis
