Overview
This volume of Analog Circuit Design concentrates on three topics: Low-Noise, Low-Power, Low-Voltage; Mixed-Mode Designwith CAD Tools; Voltage, Current, and Time References. The bookcontains six papers on each topic, written by internationallyrecognised experts. The papers are tutorial in nature and make asubstantial contribution to improving the design of analog circuits.The book is divided into three parts.Part I, ''Low-Noise, Low-Power, Low-Voltage', concentrates on the problems of the matching properties of high frequency MOS circuitscaused by the continuous reduction in the size of integrated devices.These problems are considered in light of maintaining the benefits ofgreater bandwidth and lower power consumption.
Part II, ''Mixed Mode Design with CAD Tools', looks at the practicalities of providing CAD tools for circuits containing bothdigital and analog elements. The papers consider both the simulationand synthesis aspects of designing CAD tools suitable for suchdesigns.
Part III, ''Voltage, Current and Time References' contains much new and exciting material describing all aspects of these reference circuits.
Audience: An essential reference source for analog designengineers and researchers wishing to keep abreast with the latestdevelopments in the field. The tutorial nature of the contributionsalso makes it suitable for use in an advanced course.
Synopsis
Based on tutorials delivered at an April 2001 workshop in Holland, 18 papers discuss current trends and techniques in scalable analog circuit design, high-speed digital/analog converters, and RF power amplifiers. The first section addresses the scalability issues of high resolution mixed mode circuit design, high voltage IC design for XDSL, wire-line front-ends, and reusable IP analog circuit design. Other topics include a retargetable CMOS current steering converter, track-and-hold topologies that avoid retiming and latency issues, class-E power amplifier principles and design equations, linear transmitter architectures, and silicon bipolar implementations.

Contains 18 revised papers from an April 1995 workshop on analog circuit design, held in Villach, Austria, arranged in three sections on low-noise, low-power, low-voltage; mixed-mode design with CAD tools; and voltage, current, and time references. Specific topics include low-noise oscillators, autozeroing and correlated double sampling techniques, CAD simulation for mixed signal design, computer- aided testability analysis for analog circuits, monolithic voltage and current references, and crystal oscillators. Includes section introductions. No index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
