This book describes several techniques to address variation-related design challenges for analog blocks in mixed-signal systems-on-chip. The methods presented are results from recent research works involving receiver front-end circuits, baseband filter linearization, and data conversion. These circuit-level techniques are described, with their relationships to emerging system-level calibration approaches, to tune the performances of analog circuits with digital assistance or control. Coverage also includes a strategy to utilize on-chip temperature sensors to measure the signal power and linearity characteristics of analog/RF circuits, as demonstrated by test chip measurements.    Describes a variety of variation-tolerant analog circuit design examples, including from RF front-ends, high-performance ADCs and baseband filters;Includes built-in testing techniques, linked to current industrial trends;Balances digitally-assisted performance tuning with analog performance tuning and mismatch reduction approaches;Describes theoretical concepts as well as experimental results for test chips designed with variation-aware techniques.

This book provides a compact and practical presentation of microelectronics circuits for a one-semester introductory course. Contrary to textbooks that are written for comprehensive two-semester electronics courses, the focus of this book is on the basic concepts and immediate discussion of application examples to instill more interest. The theoretical concepts are introduced by explaining the methods to analyze elementary electronic circuits with design considerations, design procedures, and simulation examples.With this approach, students are prepared early to design and measure simple electronic circuits in the laboratory. This is an exciting aspect that not only motivates students but also enables a well-rounded learning experience.
