CMOS Analog IC Design

Learning Objective:

A student who successfully fulfills the course requirements will have demonstrated:

• a basic knowledge of bias circuit using CMOS current mirror
• a basic knowledge of noise analysis
• an understanding of single stage amplifiers - gain/bandwidth/noise/stability
• an understanding of different Op-amp and OTA
• an understanding of feedback circuit
• and understanding of basic active filter

Description:

The course covers general topics in CMOS analog IC design; biasing, noise, single stage amplifiers, Op-Amp, OTA, frequency domain analysis, and active filter. While the focus of the course is on CMOS IC design, design in bipolar and BiCMOS technologies are introduced as well. A design project is a key component of the course. The students conduct a group or individual design project. Process Design Kit and EDA tools are provided for the design project.

Topics Covered:

Prerequisites:

General knowledge of terminology and concepts from undergraduate courses in circuit design and microelectronics; familiarity with SPICE

Projects:

The students are asked to demonstrate their project design (schematic level) at the end of the semester. 

Exams:

Two midterm exams: 

1. Covers bias circuit design, noise analysis, and single stage amplifiers
2. Covers differential Op-amp, OTA, frequency domain analysis, and active filter design
