I would add the Hall/Hall/McCall book "High-Speed Digital System Design"
as a must-have, also.

No questions. The top of my list is:
Johnson and Graham:
High-Speed Digital Design: A Handbook of Black Magic
http://signalintegrity.com/books.htm#hsdd
Most of my friends just call it "Black Magic".
It's 10 years old. The examples use DIPs rather than BGAs. But it
covers=20
the basics and does it in a way that's easy to understand.
I like the style. It's got the same feel as the Art of Electronics.
Every=20
time I go to look something up I get sucked in to browsing a section or
3. =20
It feels like an old friend.
Hot off the press. =20
Lee Ritchey:
Right the First Time, A Practical Handbook on
High Speed PCB and System Design
http://www.speedingedge.com/rtft_book.htm
I haven't spent much time with it yet, so I'm not as attached to it as
as I=20
am to "Black Magic". I like it. When I showed to a friend, he said
"This is=20
good", and after flipping a few more pages he said "This is really
good!".
There is a follow on to Black Magic:
Johnson and Graham:
High-Speed Signal Propagation: Advanced Black Magic
http://signalintegrity.com/books.htm
It's new/different material, not an update of the old version. (Read
their=20
web page.)
I don't like it as much. I'm not sure why. Probably I haven't been as=20
interested in the material.
If you can, I suggest finding a friend or co-worker who has them and is=20
willing to let you browse for a day or three.
