Prerequisites
Signals and Systems, Analog construction, Analog CMOS Integrated CircuitsIntended learning outcomes
The purpose of the course is that the attendee should get:
- fundamental knowledge wrt. analysis and design of analog and discrete-time systems integrated ni CMOS technology for system-on-chips (SOCs)
- an understanding for the purpose and need of advanced computer-aided deisgn tools (CAD), i.e., different analysis and synthesis methodologies using computers.
- an ability to use simulation tools for circuit design
After the course is completeted, the students should be able to:
- describe the relationships between different parameters and performance measures for different types of integrated circuits and components.
- understand the influence due to limitations in performance of subcomponents on integrated filters, A/D and D/A converters
- specify OPs and OTAs to be used in larger systems
- perform charge analyses on SC circuits and understand the influence of non-ideal components on the transfer characteristics
- design integrated continuous-time filters given building blocks such as OPs, OTAs, switches, and more
- design integrated switched-capacitor filters
- describe the architecture and functionality of the most common types of A/D and D/A converters suitable for CMOS
- perform noise and distortion analysis on CMOS circuits and understand the impact on for example data converters
Course content
- Integrated circuit components, such as PMOS and NMOS transistors, capacitors, switches, current sources
- Analysis with respect to feedback and stability.
- Integrated active filters.
- Integrated switched-capacitor filters: charge-redistribution, error sources, switches, transfer functions.
- Performance measures: Noise. Spectral density. Distortion.
- Integrated data converters: Integrated analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters.
Teaching and working methods
The course is organized in lectures, lessons, and computer-aided group exercises.
Examination
| PRA1 | Computer simulations | 2 credits | U, G |
| TENA | Written examination | 4 credits | U, 3, 4, 5 |
Computer simulations, PRA1
The student will together with other students in smaller groups hand in a compilation of their own work concerning circuit simulation exercsies. Note that the group exercises constists of a combined suite of laboratories. The report is the concluding, examination document. The schedule laboratories are resource hours and the students have to plan their own time.
Written exam (TENA) During the lectures five quizzes will be handed out. The answers will be returned during the same lecture. Out of five quizzes one can maximally obtain three points. These points can be accounted for in the written exam. The written exams contains of five exercises totalling 25 points. With correct quizzes, the student can obtain a total of 28 points. The grading is: 10p: 3, 15p: 4, 20p: 5.
Written exam (TENA) During the lectures five quizzes will be handed out. The answers will be returned during the same lecture. Out of five quizzes one can maximally obtain three points. These points can be accounted for in the written exam. The written exams contains of five exercises totalling 25 points. With correct quizzes, the student can obtain a total of 28 points. The grading is: 10p: 3, 15p: 4, 20p: 5.
