Product Description
Offers a modern look at analog integrated circuit design. Covering everything from processing steps to models to high level circuit design issues, the authors make it a point to emphasize the "real-life" implications of this material for the circuit designer as a professional. This text presents a concise treatment of the wide array of knowledge required for integrated circuit design. Emphasis on the most important and fundamental principles in creating state-of-the-art analog circuits. Coverage includes contemporary topics such as dynamically matched current mirrors, digital error correction and interpolation, and folding D/D converters.
Reader Reviews
In my opinon, this is one of the better books on analog circuit design available for practicing engineers. I disagree with the reviews that state that there is not enough emphasis on rigorous calculations. Analog design is an iterative art, not a theoretical science. In short, straight forward algorithms to develop complex analog circuits don't exist - at least not in a form that would allow timely completion of robust designs. Analog design is a highly intuitive process that works best when simple hand calculations, which indicate the magnitude and direction of first (and sometimes second) order transistor effects, are combined with complex computer simulations which prove out detailed functionality over the required operating conditions.
