CMOS Active Inductors and Transformers - by Fei Yuan (Hardcover)

About the Book

This is a comprehensive examination of the principles and implementation of CMOS active inductors and transformers, and a review of emerging applications in high-speed analog signal processing and data communications over wire and wireless channels.

Book Synopsis

Many new topologies and circuit design techniques have emerged recently to improve the performance of active inductors, but a comprehensive treatment of the theory, topology, characteristics, and design constraint of CMOS active inductors and transformers, and a detailed examination of their emerging applications in high-speed analog signal processing and data communications over wire and wireless channels, is not available. This book is an attempt to provide an in-depth examination and a systematic presentation of the operation principles and implementation details of CMOS active inductors and transformers, and a detailed examination of their emerging applications in high-speed analog signal processing and data communications over wire and wireless channels.

The content of the book is drawn from recently published research papers and are not available in a single, cohesive book. Equal emphasis is given to the theory of CMOS active inductors and transformers, and their emerging applications. Major subjects to be covered in the book include: inductive characteristics in high-speed analog signal processing and data communications, spiral inductors and transformers - modeling and limitations, a historical perspective of device synthesis, the topology, characterization, and implementation of CMOS active inductors and transformers, and the application of CMOS active inductors and transformers in high-speed analog and digital signal processing and data communications.

From the Back Cover

Many new topologies and circuit design techniques have emerged recently to improve the performance of CMOS active inductors and transformers. However, a comprehensive treatment of the theory, topology, characteristics, and design constraints has not been available. CMOS Active Inductors and Transformers: Principle, Implementation, and Applications provides a systematic presentation and a detailed examination of the operation principles and implementations, and discusses their emerging applications in high-speed analog signal processing and data communications.

The author has organized the book into two parts and equally treats the theory of active inductors and transformers, and their emerging applications. Major subjects covered in the book include: inductive characteristics in high-speed analog signal processing and data communication; modeling and limitations of spiral inductors and transformers; topology, characterization, and implementation.

CMOS Active Inductors and Transformers: Principle, Implementation, and Applications is an invaluable resource for graduate students, IC design engineers and researchers working in circuit design.
