Course Objectives

The aim of this course is to explain the internal structure and the operating principles of the integrated circuits commertially available. This course first covers the models for integrated circuit active devices. The technology of bipolar, MOS and BiCMOS integrated circuit is reviewed then. The course then covers discrete transistor amplifiers, current mirrors, active loads and references, output stages. The integrated circuit operational amplifiers and the frequency response of integrated circuits will be studied. The applications of feedback and stability to integrated circuit amplifiers will be studied. The different nonlinear analog circuits will be discussed also. Project work will be complementing the theoretical knowledge given in the course.
