Description
CALENDAR DESCRIPTION:
Models for integrated circuit activity and passive devices and their implementation; computer aided design tools and their use in designing analog integrated circuits; analysis of single transistor amplifiers; current sources, current mirrors, and voltage references; op-amps characteristics, analyses and circuit design examples; frequency response of integrated circuits; noise in integrated circuits; low power integrated circuits; non-linear analog integrated circuits. The students will be required to either design, fabricate and test simple analog ICs in the microelectronics lab, or do a project which involves the design, analysis, modeling and simulation of an analog integrated circuit.
COURSE DETAILS:
• CMOS Analog IC Design – Introduction. Basic Semiconductor Processes. CMOS Technology Processes.
• Active Devices: p-n junction, n-channel MOSFET, p-channel MOSFET. Passive Devices: Capacitors, Resistors. BJTs in CMOS. Latchup.
• CMOS IC Layout. MOSFET Layout. Capacitor Layout. Matching. Layout Design Rules. Layout Design case study.
• MOS FET Large-Signal Model and Its Parameters. MOS FET Small-Signal Model. MOS Subthreshold Model.
• SPICE Simulation of CMOS Analog ICs.
• CMOS Subcircuits: MOS Switch, MOS Diode/Active Resistor. Current Sinks and Sources.
• Current Mirrors. Current and Voltage References. Bandgap Voltage Reference.
• Active Load CMOS Inverter Amplifiers. CMOS Differential Amplifiers. Cascode Amplifiers.

Graduate Studies Notes:
Important dates and deadlines for graduate students are found here: http://www.sfu.ca/dean-gradstudies/current/important_dates/guidelines.html. The deadline to drop a course with a 100% refund is the end of week 2. The deadline to drop with no notation on your transcript is the end of week 3.
Registrar Notes:
SFU’s Academic Integrity web site http://www.sfu.ca/students/academicintegrity.html is filled with information on what is meant by academic dishonesty, where you can find resources to help with your studies and the consequences of cheating. Check out the site for more information and videos that help explain the issues in plain English.
Each student is responsible for his or her conduct as it affects the University community. Academic dishonesty, in whatever form, is ultimately destructive of the values of the University. Furthermore, it is unfair and discouraging to the majority of students who pursue their studies honestly. Scholarly integrity is required of all members of the University. http://www.sfu.ca/policies/gazette/student/s10-01.html
