Prerequisites

Knowledge of MOS transistor basics related to circuit design, linear circuit analysis, small signal equivalent circuits, small and large signal analysis, frequency domain analysis

This is a core course for MTech, and Dual Degree students in the microelectronics stream, and MS students pursuing IC design. Students from other streams and 3rd/4th year BTech students can credit this course with permission from the instructor.

Course contents

This course deals with the transistor level design of building blocks of analog integrated circuits: amplifier stages, biasing circuits, current sources, voltage references, operational amplifiers.

Workload(weightage)

Assignments(30%): Periodic assignments through the semester dealing with theory, design, and simulation of Analog IC building blocks. Most of the learning in this course comes from doing the assignments. Take these very seriously in order to clearly understand the principles of analog IC design.
Quiz I(15%)
Quiz II(15%)
Final exam(40%)
