Summary

Introduction to the design of analog CMOS integrated circuits at the transistor level. Understanding and design of basic structures.

Content

  • Review of physics of MOS transistor
  • MOS transistor: operating modes, large and small signal models, parasitic effects
  • Basic building blocks for linear analog integrated circuits: single-stage amplifiers, current mirrors, differential pairs, and cascodes
  • Transistor-level design of operational transconductance amplifiers
  • Frequency response of amplifiers
  • Layout techniques for analog integrated circuits

Keywords

Transistor, CMOS, analog integrated circuit
