This textbook is ideal for senior undergraduate and graduate
courses in RF CMOS circuits, RF circuit design, and high-frequency
analog circuit design. It is aimed at electronics engineering
students and IC design engineers in the field, wishing to gain a
deeper understanding of circuit fundamentals, and to go beyond the
widely-used automated design procedures. The authors employ a
design-centric approach, in order to bridge the gap between
fundamental analog electronic circuits textbooks and more advanced
RF IC design texts. The structure and operation of the building
blocks of high-frequency ICs are introduced in a systematic manner,
with an emphasis on transistor-level operation, the influence of
device characteristics and parasitic effects, and input-output
behavior in the time and frequency domains. This second edition has
been revised extensively, to expand some of the key topics, to
clarify the explanations, and to provide extensive design examples
and problems. New material has been added for basic coverage of
core topics, such as wide-band LNAs, noise feedback concept and
noise cancellation, inductive-compensated band widening techniques
for flat-gain or flat-delay characteristics, and basic
communication system concepts that exploit the convergence and
co-existence of Analog and Digital building blocks in RF systems. A
new chapter (Chapter 5) has been added on Noise and Linearity,
addressing key topics in a comprehensive manner. All of the other
chapters have also been revised and largely re-written, with the
addition of numerous, solved design examples and exercise problems.

With a design-centric approach, this textbook bridges the gap
between fundamental analog electronic circuit textbooks and more
advanced RF IC design texts. The major issues that must be taken
into account when combining analog and digital circuit building
blocks are covered, together with the key criteria and parameters
that are used to describe system-level performance. Simple circuit
models enable a robust understanding of high-frequency design
fundamentals, and SPICE simulations are used to check results and
fine-tune the design. With solved design examples to guide the
reader through the decision process that accompanies each design
task, this is an ideal textbook for senior undergraduate and
graduate courses in RF CMOS circuits, RF circuit design, and
high-frequency analog circuit design. Analog integrated circuit
designers and RF circuit designers in industry who need help making
design choices will also find this a practical and valuable
reference.
