Looking for a circuit example reference (book or app note)

[Daving]

I'm trying to find a book or a set of app notes that have a number of example circuits with brief descriptions, similar to what's in National's app note 31 ( http://www.ti.com/ww/en/bobpease/assets/AN-31.pdf ) or at the end of the chapters in The Art of Electronics (Thanks Dave for that recommendation).  A friend of mine is specifically interested in RF circuits, but my interest extends to general analog and power (linear and SMPS).  If anyone knows of such material, I'm sure other's would be interested in it as well.

While this isn't a book, it is a huge collection of schematics and information, mostly RF / ham radio related, but also includes some building blocks, test circuits, audio circuits and misc.

How about Jim Williams' Appnote 47 from Linear. It's long but worth the read

Thanks for the links.  I've managed to find a rather sizable collection of app notes and links, so here it is.  LT is certainly well represented here.

App Note 31: Op Amp Circuit Collection
App Note 43: Bridge Circuits
App Note 47: High Speed Amplifier Techniques
App Note 52: Linear Technology Magazine Circuit Collection, Volume 1
App Note 66: Linear Technology Magazine Circuit Collection, Volume II Power Products
App Note 67: Linear Technology Magazine Circuit Collection, Volume III Data Conversion, Interface and Signal Processing
App Note 105: Current Sense Circuit Collection
AN1114: Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) Topologies (Part I)
AN1207: Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) Topologies (Part II)
A Single-Supply Op-Amp Circuit Collection

Newnes Electronic circuit pocket book series are very useful, they give practical circuit designs and brief theory, all the circuits work and can be used and or adapted.

go buiy the two jim williams books on analog circuits. over 2000 pages with nothing but practical examples.

and if you buy them through linear's website there is a 30% discount. i made a separate topic today on those books.
