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


In this course, you will learn about the fundamentals of MOSFET, the ways to bias the transistors in triode/linear, cut-off and saturation regions. Later in the course, you will learn about transconductance Gm, which is currently being used popularly in sensor read out circuits, broadband circuits and in high speed design. The Constant-Gm circuit is extremely popular in low power circuit designs.

This course is a prerequisite for the course "CMOS Analog Circuit Design - Amplifiers with Solved Examples" and "Circuit Design for High Speed Serial Links".

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.

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 MOSFETs and their characteristics
  • Undergraduate students who are beginning to learn Analog IC Design
  • Post Graduate Students who need a refresher course
