This course starts with the building blocks of mixed-signal integrated circuits, mostly data converters and frequency synthesizers: comparators, sampling circuits, amplifiers, controlled oscillators, charge pumps, phase- frequency detectors, etc. Then, it continues with an overview of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and phase-locked loops (PLLs). Students will learn about several ADC and PLL topologies, the use of mixed-signal integrated circuits in different applications. Students will also design an ADC or PLL as a course project.
