Analogue Circuits
Analogue Intgerated Circuits
Its a masters level course generally taught in the Winter semester every year.
Module leader: Prof. Dr. B. Choubey
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. B. Choubey
Language: English
Learning Outcomes
The learning outcomes of the course are to provide the student with an ability to
- Design analogue circuits in a CMOS process by calculating the required properties of various transistors
- Analyse single transistor circuits and calculate its performance parameters.
- Use MOSFETs as building blocks of complex large analogue systems
- Understand signal amplification and limitations of real world amplifiers
- Calculate and analyse the effects of noise in electronic circuits. Use filters to reduce the effect of noise
- Design complex analogue circuits for interfacing sensors
