The power of mixed-signal
circuit designs, and perhaps the
reason they are replacing analog-only designs in the
implementation of analog interfaces, comes from the
marriage of analog circuits with digital
signal processing.
This book builds on the fundamental material in the authors
previous book,
CMOS: Circuit
Design, Layout, and
Simulation, to provide a solid textbook and reference for
mixed-signal circuit design. The coverage is both practical
and in-depth, integrating experimental, theoretical, and
simulation examples to drive home the why and the how of
doing mixed-signal circuit design. Some of the highlights
of this book include:
- A practical/theoretical approach to mixed-signal
circuit design with an emphasis on oversampling
techniques
- An accessible and useful alternative to hard-to-digest
technical papers without losing technical depth
- Coverage of delta-sigma data converters, custom analog
and digital filter design, design with submicron CMOS
processes, and practical at-the-bench deadbug prototyping
techniques
- Hundreds of worked examples and questions covering all
areas of mixed-signal circuit design
A helpful companion Web site, http://cmosedu.com, provides
worked solutions to textbook problems, SPICE simulation
netlist examples, and discussions concerning mixed-signal
circuit design.
