This course reviews the transistor and wire characteristics and models in modern digital CMOS technologies. Performance metrics for digital circuits are introduced. Design and optimization of various types of digital integrated circuits are discussed. They include static combinational logic circuits, dynamic combinational logic circuits, and sequential logic circuits. An exemplary arithmetic circuit is studied. The course also covers the design of memory and array structures, noise in digital systems, I/O and signaling conventions. (Not for students who have taken ELEG4201 or ELEG4260.)

Introduction to power conversion. Bandgap and Zener voltage references. Linear regulators and low-dropout regulators. Charge pump. Switched-mode power regulators. (Not for students who have taken ELEG4210. Prerequisite: ELEG3202 or consent of the instructor.)

Introduction to transmission line theory. Smith chart. Design principles of impedance matching. Microstrip lines. S-parameters. Microwave network analysis. Microwave CAD tools. Design principles of microwave passive circuits. Microwave measurement techniques. (Not for students who have taken ELEG4213 or ELEG4320 or ESTR4206 or ESTR4220.)

Microwave active devices. Device modeling. High frequency packaging. Design principles of microwave active circuits. Noise analysis. Linearity study of RF systems. Students are advised to take ELEG4203 before taking this course. (Not for students who have taken ELEG4320 or ESTR4208.)

Modern circuit design techniques used in current CMOS integrated circuits. CMOS digital integrated circuits: static and dynamic logic, transmission gate intensive logic, switching characteristic of static logic, I/O buffer, SRAM. (Not for students who have taken ELEG4211 or ELEG4260.)
