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.

This course covers the basics of analog integrated circuit design. 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, stability, and compensation. Noise analysis is applied to various circuit configurations. More complex topics will be discussed if time permits.

The Internet age of universal electronic connectivity is vital for every aspect of our lives and our economy. It enables businesses, transportation, electronic banking, health records, as well as entertainment. To maintain the integrity of the Internet, it is vital to protect and defend this infrastructure from malicious viruses, worms, eavesdropping, electronic fraud, denial-of-service attacks etc.
