Advanced Analogue Circuits

Advanced Analogue Circuits

Its a masters level course generally taught in the Summer semester every year.

 
Module leader: Prof. Dr. B. Choubey

Lecturer: Prof. Dr. B. Choubey

Language: English

Learning Outcomes 

In small groups of 3-4 students and under the supervision from the institute, the students will develop a complete analogue  system using state of the art software. Depending on the interest of the students, a topic from the current developments in the field of CMOS circuit design will be selected. This may include CMOS sensing, neuromorphic circuits and data converters. The students will learn advance use of Cadence software. They will design, simulate, layout and test the circuit in a industrially relevant design environment. They will also undertake preparation and execution of a lecture following the coursework. The course will provide them with experience of professional teamwork, knowledge transfer, impact, presentation skills as well as problem solving. The students will also acquire an advanced understanding of analogue CMOS design. Knowledge and competences will enable students to gain advanced positions in the industry as well as research institution.

Syllabus

The course Advanced Analogue Circuits deals with various current developments in the fields of CMOS circuit design. It is intended to specifically address topics not covered in semiconductor electronics and analogue circuits course. These include Analogue to Digital and Digital to Analogue converters, advanced opamps and Neural network circuits. The course AAC is divided into two parts: Laboratory internship with accompanying preparations or exercises and lecture with accompanying seminars or Exercises. The content of the lecture AAC is not fixed but changes with each new lecture series. Each student will work under the guidance of a supervisor and will present a lecture of 30 minutes at the end of the course.
