Nano-scale CMOS Analog Circuits: Models and CAD Techniques for High-Level Design

Description

Reliability concerns and the limitations of process technology can sometimes restrict the innovation process involved in designing nano-scale analog circuits. The success of nano-scale analog circuit design requires repeat experimentation, correct analysis of the device physics, process technology, and adequate use of the knowledge database. Starting with the basics, Nano-Scale CMOS Analog Circuits: Models and CAD Techniques for High-Level Design introduces the essential fundamental concepts for designing analog circuits with optimal performances. This book explains the links between the physics and technology of scaled MOS transistors and the design and simulation of nano-scale analog circuits. It also explores the development of structured computer-aided design (CAD) techniques for architecture-level and circuit-level design of analog circuits. Read more... Abstract: This text presents a comprehensive discussion on the challenges of nano-scale analog circuit design and proposes a knowledge-based computer-aided design approach for the design of nano-scale analog circuits. Researchers and post graduate students are considered to be the primary readers of this book. Read more...
