Description

This comprehensive and insightful book sets out in detail how to design gigahertz-speed radio-frequency integrated circuits in CMOS technology. Starting with a history of radio to establish a foundation and to differentiate the discrete era from the IC age, the book reviews passive RLC networks, the characteristics of IC components and transistor models. The design of high-frequency tuned and broadband amplifiers follows, with an emphasis on approximate methods that provide important design insight as a complement to simulation results. Key RF building blocks, such as low-noise amplifiers (LNAs), mixers, power amplifiers, high spectral purity oscillators and frequency synthesizers are studied in detail. The book closes with an examination of transceiver architectures. With over 350 circuit diagrams and illustrations, and many homework problems, this will be an ideal textbook for anyone taking advanced undergraduate or graduate courses in RF electronics, as well as a useful reference for practising engineers.

    • Excellent book.
Overall this is a great book on RF circuit design. My only complaints are that the section on PLLs seems difficult to understand (although maybe it's just me) and that the design of voltage controlled oscillators is not discussed (although fixed frequency oscillators are covered).

    • Text of limited value
This book presents the material in a conversational manner. The strength of this book is that it includes many important, rarely discussed topics. It also contains an interesting history of Radio Frequency Circuits. However it needs more examples and a more extensive listing of its references.

    • Very good as an introductory survey type book
This book summarizes the high points of what in past years would have been at least 50% of the course work for obtaining a BSEE. As a result of compressing this information into a single volume, the coverage is superficial and only presents results and not derivations. This is a good first book on the subject and will get you oriented so that reading more detailed books will be easier. There are errors that are easily spotted, such as a passive mixer with more output signal power than input power. The author sets up straw men by misconstruing conventional wisdom and shows how he has found the true light. After reading this book you should have the technical skill level of what in past years would be an advanced level amateur radio hobbyist or middle level electronic technician. ... show more

    • The first chapter alone is worth the money.
The first chapter of this book gives a history of radio design with schematics. The cmos portion gives a good coverage of RF components, smith charts, CMOS inductors, Bandwidth estimation techniques etc. More an RF issues book than a cmos layout book with almost all layout examples being single components. This is an excellent single issue book focused on Radio design specifically CMOS radio design. Those looking for a book focused on CMOS design should buy this book in addition to another. ... show more

    • A good book but not deep enough
The book is clear and simple to follow but it's not detailed enough to show the rope.

    • This book is a treasure
It was sheer pleasure reading this book, its insightful and practical - particularly the sections on history of some of the inventions. The writer comes out as a master and a guru with lot of enthusiasm about the subject. Another book I considered insightful reading was 'Art of Electronis' by Hayes. I would request readers to point out similarly well-written books so that we could all benefit from these treasures. Again my hats off to the author. ... show more

    • A required arrow for any technical quiver
This book is the best written, light hearted, and historically accurate rendition of CMOS design. Very easy reading that is peppered with little factoids and anecdotes. Look for the footnotes.

    • The best book I ever read on Electronic
You can find here a fine description of last RF design knowhow, with answers to questions I'd like to have before. Thank you Mister LEE!!!
