Course Information
Description: Analysis and optimized design of integrated analog
systems and building blocks. Specific topics include operational and
wide-band amplifiers, gain-bandwidth and power considerations, analysis of
noise in integrated circuits, low noise design, feedback, precision passive
elements, analog switches, comparators, CMOS voltage references,
non-idealities such as matching and supply/IO/substrate coupling. The
course will include a significant design project applying the techniques
taught in class to implement the analog front-end of a high-speed serial
link.
