A schematic diagram is not a detailed blueprint of an analog circuit; instead, it’s more like architectural sketch of the circuit. Look at any schematic for a CMOS analog IC circuit and you will see ...
As author R. Jacob “Jake” Baker points out in the preface to this comprehensive volume, CMOS technology has dominated the fabrication of ICs for 25 years, and is likely to dominate it for another 25 ...
In ASIC physical implementation, once layout is generated, it must follow all the design rules for successful manufacturing and must match the schematic of the required design. To ensure this in ...
Spirea AB is a Swedish fabless semiconductor company developing highly integrated low-power, low-cost radio solutions for the Wireless LAN and PAN markets. This article describes how we assembled a ...
Logical- and physical-synthesis tools have revolutionized digital-ASIC design over the past decade, increasing chip functions and designer productivity. However, many of today's SOC (system-on-chip) ...
The recent reduction in transistor size using scaling will cause sub-threshold leakage currents to become an increasingly large component of total power dissipation. In this paper, a stack transistor ...
Finishing up on the topic of CMOS bus logic I am going to show a couple of families with unique properties that may come in handy one day. First up is a CMOS logic family AHC/AHCT that has one of the ...
To alleviate the drawbacks of quartz oscillator technology, classic microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) materials are now being used to fabricate three-dimensional resonating structures. These ...
MEMS-based component suppliers want to rapidly ramp their designs into high-volume production. This demand is driving MEMS suppliers to focus on ways to more efficiently re-use established process ...
