The Acclaimed RF Microelectronics Best-Seller, Expanded and Updated
for the Newest Architectures, Circuits, and Devices Wireless
communication has become almost as ubiquitous as electricity, but
RF design continues to challenge engineers and researchers. In the
15 years since the first edition of this classic text, the demand
for higher performance has led to an explosive growth of RF design
techniques. In RF Microelectronics, Second Edition, Behzad Razavi
systematically teaches the fundamentals as well as the
state-of-the-art developments in the analysis and design of RF
circuits and transceivers. Razavi has written the second edition to
reflect today's RF microelectronics, covering key topics in far
greater detail. At nearly three times the length of the first
edition, the second edition is an indispensable tome for both
students and practicing engineers. With his lucid prose, Razavi now
Offers a stronger tutorial focus along with hundreds of examples
and problems Teaches design as well as analysis with the aid of
step-by-step design procedures and a chapter dedicated to the
design of a dual-band WiFi transceiver Describes new design
paradigms and analysis techniques for circuits such as low-noise
amplifiers, mixers, oscillators, and frequency dividers This
edition's extensive coverage includes brand new chapters on mixers,
passive devices, integer-N synthesizers, and fractional-N
synthesizers. Razavi's teachings culminate in a new chapter that
begins with WiFi's radio specifications and, step by step, designs
the transceiver at the transistor level. Coverage includes Core RF
principles, including noise and nonlinearity, with ties to analog
design, microwave theory, and communication systems An intuitive
treatment of modulation theory and wireless standards from the
standpoint of the RF IC designer Transceiver architectures such as
heterodyne, sliding-IF, directconversion, image-reject, and low-IF
topologies. Low-noise amplifiers, including cascode common-gate and
commonsource topologies, noise-cancelling schemes, and
reactance-cancelling configurations Passive and active mixers,
including their gain and noise analysis and new mixer topologies
Voltage-controlled oscillators, phase noise mechanisms, and various
VCO topologies dealing with noisepower-tuning trade-offs All-new
coverage of passive devices, such as integrated inductors, MOS
varactors, and transformers A chapter on the analysis and design of
phase-locked loops with emphasis on low phase noise and low spur
levels Two chapters on integer-N and fractional-N synthesizers,
including the design of frequency dividers Power amplifier
principles and circuit topologies along with transmitter
architectures, such as polar modulation and outphasing
