A unique, state-of-the-art guide to wireless integrated circuitdesign.
With wireless technology rapidly exploding, there is a growing needfor circuit design information specific to wireless applications.Presenting a single-source guidebook to this dynamic area, industryexpert Ulrich Rohde and writer David Newkirk provide researchersand engineers with a complete set of modeling, design, andimplementation tools for tackling even the newest IC technologies.They emphasize practical design solutions for high-performancedevices and circuitry, incorporating ample examples of novel andclever circuits from high-profile companies. They also provideexcellent appendices containing working models and CAD-basedapplications.
RF/Microwave Circuit Design for Wireless Applications offers:
* Introduction to wireless systems and modulation types
* A systematic approach that differentiates between designing forbattery-operated devices and base-station design
* A comprehensive introduction to semiconductor technologies, frombipolar transistors to CMOS to GaAs MESFETs
* Clear guidelines for obtaining the best performance in discreteand integrated amplifier design
* Detailed analysis of available mixer circuits applicable to thewireless frequency range
* In-depth explanations of oscillator circuits, including microwaveoscillators and ceramic-resonator-based oscillators
* A thorough evaluation of all components of wireless synthesizers
