Course Description:

This course covers various aspects of the design of integrated analog and analog-digital interface electronics  at the building block and system level. Specific topics include

§         Continuous-time and sampled-data filters

§         Oversampled A/D converters

§         Nyquist rate A/D- and D/A-converters

§         Digital data receivers and equalization

Problem-specific CAD tools such as MATLAB (filter design), PSPICE, HSPICE, and SPECTRE will be used throughout the course.


Prerequisites:

A basic course in signal processing (Laplace transform, Z transform,  sampled data systems, filter synthesis) is  required. Familiarity with analog circuit analog building blocks (amplifiers, references, mirrors, etc.)  and their imperfections such as offset, noise and distortion is laso highly reccomended . Familiarity with MATLAB and Simulink(or equivalent).
