ISSCC 2004 Solid State Circuits Conference

SUmmary form only given. This Short Course is intended to provide both entry-level and experienced engineers with practical design approaches for implementation of analog and RF circuitry in deep-submicron CMOS and BiCMOS technologies. Course completion provides an overall perspective of the circuit-design issues and detailed design strategies for circuit building blocks in wired and wireless communication applications. Topics covered address the challenges faced by analog and RF designers in technologies with channel lengths of 90nm and below including the device models, design methodologies, and system-integration technologies.
