Topics include standard circuit building blocks such as current mirrors, voltage references, single stage amplifier topologies, differential pairs. Device models, bias choices, temperature effects, the body effect, and mismatch. Op-amp and OTA design as well as frequency response, noise analysis, stability, and compensation. The course will include readings in Filter Design, Common Mode Feedback, and Distortion. A design project required, which can be related to the student's research or possibly another advanced E&C-ENG course such as RF systems, biology, or communications.
