Authoritative and comprehensive textbook on the fundamentals of analog integrated circuits, with learning aids included throughout

Written in an accessible style to ensure complex content can be appreciated by both students and professionals, this Sixth Edition of Analysis and Design of Analog Integrated Circuits is a highly comprehensive textbook on analog design, offering in-depth coverage of the fundamentals of circuits in a single volume. To aid in reader comprehension and retention, supplementary material includes end of chapter problems, plus a Solution Manual for instructors.

In addition to the well-established concepts, this Sixth Edition introduces a new super-source follower circuit and its large-signal behavior, frequency response, stability, and noise properties. New material also introduces replica biasing, describes and analyzes two op amps with replica biasing, and provides coverage of weighted zero-value time constants as a method to estimate the location of dominant zeros, pole-zero doublets (including their effect on settling time and three examples of circuits that create doublets), the effect of feedback on pole-zero doublets, and MOS transistor noise performance (including a thorough treatment on thermally induced gate noise).

Providing complete coverage of the subject, Analysis and Design of Analog Integrated Circuits serves as a valuable reference for readers from many different types of backgrounds, including senior undergraduates and first-year graduate students in electrical and computer engineering, along with analog integrated-circuit designers.

Paul R. Gray, Professor Emeritus, Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Emeritus, UC Berkeley, CA, USA. Gray joined the faculty of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at U.C. Berkeley in 1971. His research interests have included bipolar and MOS circuit design, electro-thermal interactions in integrated circuits, device modeling, telecommunications circuits, and analog-digital interfaces in VLSI systems. He is a Fellow of the IEEE.

Paul J. Hurst, Professor, UC Davis, CA, USA. Hurst received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1983. His research interests are in analog and mixed-signal integrated circuit design for analog-digital interfaces and digital communications using CMOS technologies.

Stephen H. Lewis, Professor, UC Davis, CA, USA. Lewis received his PhD degree from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1987.  His interests include circuit design for data-conversion and signal-processing systems.

Robert G. Meyer, Professor Emeritus, UC Berkeley, CA, USA. Meyer has enjoyed a distinguished career in both academia and industry since joining UCB in 1968. In 2014, he received the IEEE Donald O. Pederson Award for pioneering contributions to the design and modeling of analog and radio-frequency circuits. He holds eight U.S. patents and is a Fellow of the IEEE.
