Design flow of mixed signal design in relation to CMOS technology

[harry_madaan]

can anybdy help me in gettin the basic knwledge i.e. the design flow of mixed signal design in relation to CMOS technology. with sme kinda example such as CMOS mixers or anything else

mixed signal

adc dac pll and son on
you can get many many example in this board

mixed signal

and when can find book related to it

mixed signal

cmos integrated ad and da design
you can find it in the forum

Re: mixed signal

Here the simple exemple of a MASH Delta-Sigma
1) High-level simulation, with matlab for eg.
In this step you simulate both the analog and digital parts of your design. It also means that u need to model the analog part. This is one of the hardest part. A precise model means a long simulation time, and on the opposite simple model means non accurate results. I would say: experience.

You decide at this level the analog architecture, the spec of the circuits, and the digital algorythm

2) Analog Circuit design
Good old analog design....
3) Digital Circuit design
VHDL or Verilog

4) Mixed-signal simu
If u can get the environment to do so it's nice. But it usually take time.

5) Layout
The tricky part. Digital is generally automatically designed. But u need to do the analog part, and interface. Also take care for noise isolation and clock routing.


As for mixers, I'm not sure it's the best mixed-signal exemple. Not so much logic circuit. It's closer to RF, which is another topic in my opinion.

Good luck

Re: mixed signal

One good field is A/D - D/A converter (razavi, plassche, allen, johns martin).

mixed signal

ADC/DAC must be very good examples

a good doctor dissertation can help you a lot

Re: mixed signal

Switched-capacitor circuits, ADC/DAC, Filters.

mixed signal

Perheps SRAM design is also a good example.

Re: mixed signal

include the full-custom digital circuits

Re: mixed signal

ADC/DAC is the best
