Knowledge of DC Biasing and maintaining the devices in saturation

Description

"Analog circuit design is like chess - just because you know how the pieces move doesn’t mean you know how to play the game". - Patrick Lahey


This course is a continuation of another Analog IC Design "CMOS Analog IC Design - MOSFET, DC BIAS and Transconductance". This 6 hour course allows you to learn, design and analyze CMOS amplifiers, Current Mirrors and Active loads in detail. Each topic has multiple (atleast 4) worked out examples to allow hands on design.

Consequently, we're seeing analog job requisitions in several key areas including Sensor Design and Sensor interfaces, WiFi (wireless LANs and Internet access), ultra wide band technology (UWB) and power management. Demand for designers with expertise in high-speed data conversion seems to be high across a variety of industries.

We would like to thank Dr Mohammed Hashimi, IIITD for agreeing to use his lecture slides to educate the Analog Circuit Design Community across the world.

Who this course is for:

Curious students about the devices and potential nano-engineering students
Aspiring Analog IC designers who need to brush up their knowledge on CMOS Amplifiers
Undergraduate students who are beginning to learn Analog IC Design
Post Graduate Students who need a refresher course
