CMOS Analog and Mixed-Signal Circuit DesignAn Overview |
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The analog circuit employs the analog signal, while the digital circuit employs the signal that is defined only at discrete values of amplitude. A mixed-signal integrated circuit is a combination of analog and digital integrated circuits. This book proposes the concept of a signal path idea for circuit design insight. This book covers the practices and research topics of the analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits.
Design is a process to achieve at least three outputs or objectives, namely, electrical specification, circuit schematic, and device parameters, such as Width/Length (W/L) ratio. An analysis of a circuit is required to be done before the circuit ...
