i want to learn analog ic circuit design and can some one recommend some books for the beginner like me .
 

Razavi is for graduate studies
But Gray is easier and is taught for undergraduate

so, for a beginner, Gray

I think Razavi's book is about the basic cell of analog circuit, Gray's is more system level. I prefer Razavi's

hi,

behzad razavi is very good book for analog cmos design.
 

Hi All,

I haven't read Gary' book. But I think razavi's one is very good because it helps designers to expect the circuit behaviour without so much analysis.

But I have a question, If I read razavi's book, am i in need to read Gray's book? will it add new info to me or it's just a different method of explanasion?

Please anyone post its contents.

Thanks!
 

No harm reading both :)

but yes, Razavi is good.
 

Razavi book is easier. However, it is not accurate to some extent.
 

I think it is better to strart with Razavi than go to Gray.
 

the razavi is a greater book i think that this is better than the gray book
 

what about allen's.i had heard someone recommed it.
 

four basic books ; razavi , gray & meyer , ken martin ,sansen

1- start by razavi ; simple , intuitive , basics
2- then go through ken martin ; simple , systematic design & practical circuits
3- then get the main points from gray ; rigorous analysis ; important to see the neglected effects by the above 2 books and see when you can consider those effects more deeply
4- for advanced & state of the art ; Sansen book , mainly lectures with added notes

enjoy!
 
i read them both, with the sequence of razavi first, gray second
i think gray should be first, razavi is more a practical book, if you dont get the basics, you will not see the whole pic,
start with gray
