EE3-01 Analogue Integrated Circuits and Systems

Lecturer(s): Prof Chris Toumazou; Dr Pantelis Georgiou

Aims:
The aim of this course is to provide a general overview of
analogue integrated circuits and systems in CMOS and Bipolar technologies with particular
emphasis on high frequency circuit design for wireless products.

Learning Outcomes:
The course will enable
students to design some of the fundamental and very important analogue interface circuits on
predominately mixed signal digital/ analogue systems. The course will also give the students a
1st hand appreciation of radio frequency circuit design, particularly for mobile
radio.

Syllabus:
Design techniques Modelling and simulation (SPICE) of MOSFETS. Modelling and
simulation (SPICE) of BJTs.
Noise sources in op-amps and integrated circuits and low noise design.
Refresher of CMOS building blocks, current-mirrors, amplifiers, differential pairs. Design
case study of typical CMOS IC op-amp.
Introduction to integrated switched capacitor filters and continuous-time filters.
