Description
This module will further advance students understanding of the principles of operation of electronic circuits and their design procedures, with particular reference to analogue CMOS circuits and high-speed techniques.
By the end of the module students should have a good understand of:
- Circuit theory
- Analogue and digital electronics and associated components
- Analogue and digital signals and systems
- 鈥淐lassical鈥� control theory (in PLL section)
- Noise in communications systems.
Students will look at the following:
Analogue CMOS integrated circuits
- MOS device physics (revision)
- Comparison of CMOS and bipolar analogue circuits
- Single-stage MOS amplifiers
- Differential MOS amplifiers
- MOS current mirrors
- Frequency response of MOS amplifiers
High speed techniques
- Phase-locked loops (PLLs)
- Frequency synthesis
- Integer and fractional loops
- PLL design and analysis fundamentals and stability
- Single and two-point modulation
- Noise performance
- Acquisition
- Applications
Intermodulation in RF circuits
