Courses Detail Information
ECE4130J – Monolithic Amplifier Circuits
Instructor: Chang-Ching Tu
Instructors (Faculty):
Credits: 4 credits
Pre-requisites: Ve 311 and Ve 320 or graduate standing
Description:
Working principles and design considerations of CMOS circuits, particularly operational amplifiers with or without feedback. Main topics include: frequency response, negative feedback, operational amplifiers and stability of operational amplifiers. On the project side, as a major-design-experience (MDE) course, this course allows students to go through a complete circuit design process, from the inception of a concept, to simulation, to breadboard testing, to PCB layout and finally the demonstration of functions designed.
Course Topics:
- Differential pair amplifiers with active current mirrors
- Frequency response
- Negative feedback
- Operational amplifiers
- Final project
