Authoritative and comprehensive textbook on the fundamentals of analog integrated circuits, with learning aids included throughout Written in an accessible style to ensure complex content can be appreciated by both students and professionals, this Sixth Edition of Analysis and Design of Analog Integrated Circuits is a highly comprehensive textbook on analog design, offering in-depth coverage of the fundamentals of circuits in a single volume. To aid in reader comprehension and retention, supplementary material includes end of chapter problems, plus a Solution Manual for instructors. In addition to the well-established concepts, this Sixth Edition introduces a new super-source follower circuit and its large-signal behavior, frequency response, stability, and noise properties. New material also introduces replica biasing, describes and analyzes two op amps with replica biasing, and provides coverage of weighted zero-value time constants as a method to estimate the location of dominant zeros, pole-zero doublets (including their effect on settling time and three examples of circuits that create doublets), the effect of feedback on pole-zero doublets, and MOS transistor noise performance (including a thorough treatment on thermally induced gate noise). Providing complete coverage of the subject, Analysis and Design of Analog Integrated Circuits serves as a valuable reference for readers from many different types of backgrounds, including senior undergraduates and first-year graduate students in electrical and computer engineering, along with analog integrated-circuit designers.
This book is fucking awesome. The presentation is crystal clear and the derivations are elegant. The only flaw is the last chapter on fully differential amplifiers, written by two *new* authors - neither of whom teaches at Cal Berkeley. They teach at freaking DAVIS.
Bastards. The last bit is just too damned hand-wavey.
Anyway. I would recommend this to anyone with a transister fetish and a love of differential equations.
Again borrowed this for my final year project. A good reference book with lots of details on op-amps. One of the feature that really impressed me was every circuit/concept was followed by both its BJT and MOS implementation, instead of treating them in separate chapters. In this way, we can compare the performance of both in the same chapter.
