Short Building Tutorial of Analog Circuits

In the late 90's, I had written a series of papers in which I built, step by step, basic analog circuits (from the simplest passive to complex op-amp circuits).

I prepared a series of 17 papers for Popular Electronics magazine in 1999 but it ceased to exist... and I didn't manage to translate them to English.

Then the idea was born to make a short tutorial where each paper took up one page. They are implemented as a pdf file containing a lot of jpg images; maybe, now some figures will be interesting for you.

I uploaded this mini tutorial to GoogleDrive as a pdf file in Bulgarian, and here I have placed only its contents in English. I will translate it in English but this needs time...
