The course consists of a series of lectures on topics leading to advance analog IC design.

Several design exercises are included and the lecture notes are taken from the book

“Analog Design Essentials (Springer )”, which is handed out to the participants.

DAY 1

- Comparison of models of MOST and bipolar transistors

- Analysis of amplifying building blocks

- Differential voltage and current amplifiers

- Noise analysis of elementary stages

DAY 2

- Stability of multi-stage operational amplifiers

- Low-power design of operational amplifiers

- Most-used opamp configurations

- Fully-differential operational amplifiers : design examples

DAY 3

- Offset and CMRR; random and systematic

- Class AB driver amplifiers

- Low-power Sigma-Delta converters

- Design of low-power oscillators
