The course is based on a combination of instructor's notes, technical papers and textbook chapters.
The textbook we will use most is:
B. Razavi: "RF Microelectronics" , Prentice Hall, New Jersey, 1998.
see also this overview of the book chapters in the textbook.
We will often refer to the following textbook as well:
T. Lee: "The design of CMOS Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuits" , 2nd edition, Cambridge University Press, 2004.
Grading:
Homework 10%
Design Project 35%
Midterm (written) 20%
Final (written) 35%
Remote Students
Remote students need the ability to remotely run
the design tools on our VLSI/CISL Teaching machines in Mudd 12th
floor. This involves setting up an ssh connection to the machines and
running an Xserver on your system. Instructions are at http://www.ee.columbia.edu/systems/x11.html
Make sure your are confident you have a sufficiently fast internet
connection (broadband). Make sure you understand the use of ssh & X11
before you register for this course as a remote student. We will not be able to help you setting
up that connection since it is too specific to your particular computing
setup and internet connection.
