Objectives

Master the basics of analog and digital CMOS block design and simulation.

Enable the student to analyze, simulate and characterize the CMOS AOP assemblies most commonly used in the microelectronics industry (2 or 3-stage CMOS AOPs), as well as some conceptually more advanced structures (such as transconductance amplifiers (OTAs)).

Enable students to use a design flow for digital integrated circuits using specific industrial tools (CAD).

Syllabus

The course is divided into two parts:

  • a section on digital electronics and microelectronics manufacturing processes
  • analog electronics

 

The lecture part of the Analog section is in the form of a group lecture-DT. Sessions begin with a reminder of useful concepts, and students then work in groups on the exercises proposed. During the session, regular updates are made to add new information or go back over points that the students don't seem to have mastered. At the end of the session, each group submits a report. In the case of both analog and digital practical sessions, the structure is more TD-TP, where a theoretical study is required before running computer simulations. The computer is only there to illustrate the manufacturing processes and validate the previous theoretical studies.
