Circuit Design, Layout and Simulation R. J. Baker, 3nd Edition,
Wiley-IEEE, 2010
Course
content (Syllabus)
CMOS short-channel
transistor models, advanced current mirrors and biasing, voltage references,
amplifiers, frequency compensation, negative feedback systems and stability,
transistor-level opamp design, and IC layout.
This is foundation course where students will learn design of CMOS analog
integrated circuits (ICs) which can be fabricated on a silicon chip. Course
material lays emphasis on the fundamental circuit building blocks that are used
in broadband communication ICs, instrumentation, biomedical and sensors ICs,
and recently analog realization of Artificial Intelligence computation.
Students will learn to use industry-standard electronic design automation (EDA)
tools for chip design and simulation. Also, this course is a gateway to
electives on Mixed-Signal, RF and High-speed IC design.
Prerequisites ELEG 309 or permission.
