The continuous progress in the field of integrated nanoelectronic circuits and systems makes it possible to integrate more complex functions with ever-increasing operating speeds in a system-on-chip approach. The module "Advanced Analog Integrated Circuits and Systems" addresses these technological development and focuses on the analog basic circuits and concepts necessary for application areas such as wireless infrastructure applications (eg LTE), transceiver systems for electro-optical applications (eg Silicon Photonics) power dissipation low sensor systems for biomedical applications (eg nerve stimulation) or topics of automotive electronics or Internet-of-Things (IoT) are fundamental.
Teaching Content:
This course will cover the following topics:
1. High speed transceiver architecture, mode of operation and building blocks
2. Switched capacitor circuits, SC integrator, SC amplifier, SC filter, sampling operation, discrete time operation
3. Fully differential OTA and Opamps, comparators, transfer functions, power supply and common mode rejection, metastability
4. feedback, non-linearities, closed-loop topologies and considerations, common-mode feedback architectures
