The Designer's Guide to SPICE and Spectre® (The Designer's by Ken Kundert

By Ken Kundert

The Designer's advisor to SPICE and Spectre® is an in-depth consultant to circuit simulators from a designer's standpoint: the pitfalls of circuit simulation, comparable to convergence and accuracy difficulties, are defined in phrases a circuit fashion designer is cozy with. The publication provides designers perception into why those difficulties ensue and the way to prevent them. It additionally offers sensible suggestion on the best way to make many tricky measurements with a circuit simulator, resembling loop achieve of an op-amp or distortion measurements of such clocked circuits as d-to-a converters and sample-and-hold circuits. ultimately, feedback are given approximately easy methods to deal with tough sessions of circuits, reminiscent of oscillators, charge-storage or very huge circuits. After examining The Designer's consultant to SPICE and Spectre®, you are going to spend much less time scuffling with your simulator and extra time exploring, figuring out and designing your circuits. viewers: Written for working towards analog and mixed-signal circuit designers who're already accustomed to the fundamentals of working SPICE. beneficial for a person who makes use of a circuit simulator, regardless of which, due to the fact the focal point is at the basic features and behaviour of circuit simulators as a rule.

Digital Design and Modeling with VHDL and Synthesis

Electronic platforms layout with VHDL and Synthesis offers an built-in method of electronic layout rules, tactics, and implementations to assist the reader layout even more complicated structures inside of a shorter layout cycle. this is often finished through introducing electronic layout suggestions, VHDL coding, VHDL simulation, synthesis instructions, and techniques jointly.

Low-Power High-Resolution Analog to Digital Converters: Design, Test and Calibration

With the short development of CMOS fabrication expertise, increasingly more signal-processing features are applied within the electronic area for a lower price, reduce energy intake, better yield, and better re-configurability. This has lately generated an excellent call for for low-power, low-voltage A/D converters that may be learned in a mainstream deep-submicron CMOS expertise.

CAD Tools and Algorithms for Product Design

Structures to help the regularly shrinking product improvement cycles and the expanding caliber specifications want major improvements and new techniques. during this ebook vital new instruments and algorithms for destiny product modeling structures are offered. it really is according to a seminar on the overseas convention and learn heart for desktop technological know-how, Schloß Dagstuhl, Germany, provided via the world over well-known specialists in CAD know-how.
