   • MOS transistor biasing and small-signal model

   • Two-port network analysis

   • Single stage amplifiers i.e., common-source, common-gate, common-drain

   • Active loads, current sources and mirrors

   • MOS capacitances

   • Frequency response of single stage amplifiers

   • Differential amplifiers, resistive load, active load and frequency response

   • Fabrication process

2. Full Custom IC Design Layout

   • EDA tools for layout design

   • Resistors, capacitors and inductors

   • Bipolar transistors, MOS transistor and logic gates

   • Design techniques and best practices for layout design

   • Circuit design and analog block layout design

   • Device placement and routing

   • Layout verification and debugging

Course Learning Outcomes:

1. Design and implement basic analog blocks to build more complex circuits.

2. Draw the physical layout of a circuit to meet the required specifications such as area, parasitics, and performance.
