Learning Outcomes:
Gain skills in designing ADC and DAC circuits.Refine mixed-signal circuit design and behavioral modeling experience in Cadence CAD tools. Understand mixed-signal circuit tradeoffs on system performance.
Mixed-Signal Integrated Circuits (EEEN40600)
Curricular information is subject to change.
Analysis and design of mixed-signal circuits, i.e., those combining both analogue and digital design techniques, concentrating on analogue-to-digital and digital-to-analogue converters (ADC & DAC). Topics include Nyquist-rate and oversampled sigma-delta data converters as well as effects of nonlinearities and noise on their system performance.
