The aim of this module is to provide a general overview of analogue integrated circuits and systems in CMOS and Bipolar technologies with particular emphasis on high frequency circuit design for wireless products.

At the end of this module, you will be able to: 1. Evaluate different analogue circuits and architectures 2. Design different analogue circuits taking into account limitations and creating solutions to circumvent or resolve these. 3. Justify and integrate the concept of current feedback OPAMPs. 4. Evaluate and design integrated switched capacitor filters and continuous-time filters. 5. Simulate the operation of A/D and D/A Converters and contrast different approaches.

Intuitive methods for IC Design; Voltage and Current Source IC Designs; CMOS building blocks, current-mirrors, amplifiers, differential pairs; CMOS Op-AMP Design & Specification; Design case study of typical CMOS IC op-amp; High Performance OP-AMP Architectures; Current Feedback OP-AMP Architectures; Introduction to integrated switched capacitor filters and continuous-time filters; A/D and D/A Converters.
