Analog and Mixed Signal Circuits On Digital CMOS Processes
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract CMOS processes that have been developed primarily for logic are now increasingly used for analog and mixed signal applications. Process restrictions, wide parametric variance, and noisy application environments lead to special efforts in circuit design/architecture, layout techniques, and optimizing the use of a limited process. This paper addresses a combination of techniques that provide a system development approach for mixed signal circuitry on digital CMOS processes.

Modeling and Simulation of Substrate Noise in Mixed-Signal Circuits Applied to a Special VCO
The mixed-signal circuits with both analog and digital blocks on a single chip have wide applications in communication and RF circuits. Integrating these two blocks can cause serious problems especially in applications requiring fast digital circuits and high performance analog blocks. Fast switching in digital blocks generates a noise which can be introduced to analog circuits by the common su...
متن کاملSoc Design Often Includes Analog and Mixed-signal Circuits. Understanding Some of the Challenges of These Devices Helps Engineers Develop a Successful Soc-design Strategy
CMOS was developed as a digitally friendly process. Now, thanks to high levels of system integration and the emergence of SOC (system-on-chip) design, CMOS has also become the process of choice for mixed-signal applications. However, cutting-edge CMOS has limitations in these applications. Process restrictions, inaccurate simulation models, wide parametric variance, and noisy application enviro...
متن کاملIntegrated Biosensor and Interfacing Circuits
Driven by the demand of the bioelectronics market, many biosensors need to work in parallel or in a controllable way to achieve complicated biodetections, however the limited scale, speed, cost, complex signal processing, and bulky circuit routing problems prohibit the discrete biosensor solutions (Drummond et al., 2003). Nowaday biosensor are usually integrated on the same substrate to form bi...

متن کاملModeling of Substrate Noise Impact on a Single-Ended Cascode LNA in a Lightly Doped Substrate (RESEARCH NOTE)
Substrate noise generated by digital circuits on mixed-signal ICs can disturb the sensitiveanalog/RF circuits, such as Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), sharing the same substrate. This paperinvestigates the adverse impact of the substrate noise on a high frequency cascode LNA laid out on alightly doped substrate. By studying the major noise coupling mechanisms, a new and efficientmodeling method is p...
