EXAMPLE 2.3 Repeat Example 2.1 using the ideal diode model.
Solution: As shown in Fig. 2.6 , the load line is the same, but the ideal characteristics now intersect the load line on the vertical axis. The Q -point is therefore defined by
(a) Circuit; (b) characteristics
the load line is
determined solely
by the applied

network, whereas
the characteristics
are defined by the
chosen device.

模拟cmos集成电路设计英文版

模拟cmos集成电路设计英文版IntroductionA complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) integrated circuit (IC) is a type of electronic circuit that uses CMOS technology to integrate digital or analog circuits on a single chip. In this article, we will discuss the design process for a CMOS IC.Design flowThe design flow for a CMOS IC involves several stages, which are as follows:1. Requirements gathering: This stage involves gathering information about the requirements of the IC, such as its functionality, performance, and power requirements.2. Design specification: Based on the requirements gathered in the previous stage, a design specification is created that outlines the functional blocks of the IC, their interfaces, and their performance specifications.3. Circuit design: This stage involves designing the individual circuits that make up the IC, such as logic gates, amplifiers, and oscillators.4. Layout design: Once the circuits have been designed, the layout design stage involves placing the circuits on the chip and wiring them together.5. Simulation and verification: Simulation is used to verify the performanceof the circuits and the entire IC before it is fabricated.6. Tape-out: This is the process of preparing the design files for fabrication.Fabrication processThe fabrication process of a CMOS IC involves several steps, which are as follows:1. Substrate preparation: The starting material for the IC is a silicon wafer, which is coated with a layer of oxide.2. Gate oxidation: A thin layer of oxide is grown on the wafer surface where the gates of the transistors will be located.3. Poly-Si deposition: A layer of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) is deposited on the gate oxide layer.4. Photolithography: A series of masks are used to define the pattern of the transistors, interconnects, and other features on the chip.5. Etching: Chemical etching is used to remove the unwanted material from the wafer surface.6. Implantation: Ions are implanted into the wafer to create the source, drain, and gate regions of the transistors.7. Metal deposition: A layer of metal is deposited on top of the transistorsand interconnects for electrical contacts.8. Planarization: Chemical-mechanical polishing is used to planarize the surface of the chip.9. Packaging: The IC is packaged in a protective casing and tested for functionality and performance.ConclusionThe design and fabrication of a CMOS IC involves a complex process that requires expertise in multiple areas, such as digital and analog circuit design, layout design, and fabrication technology. However, the resulting IC can be a powerful tool for a wide range of applications, from consumer electronics to industrial control systems.。
