ECE 712: Integrated Circuits for Wireless Communications
Advanced graduate-level course covering the following topics: silicon IC technology choices, integrated passive components, matching networks, distributed circuits, RF amplifiers, noise parameters, active and passive mixers, receivers, transmitters, phase-locked loops, and voltage-controlled oscillators [course catalog ].
Text: Behzad Razavi, RF Microelectronics , 2nd edition, Prentice Hall, New Jersey, 2012
I teach this course every Spring semester.
Distance education sections have been offered from 2012 onward.
ECE 792: Design of Millimeter-Wave Integrated Circuits and Systems
Special-topics graduate-level course covering the following topics: silicon IC technology at mmWave, radio link budgets, beamformers, amplifiers, phase shifters, oscillators, mixers, transmit/receive front-ends, phased-arrays, receivers, transmitters, radars, and radiometers. Emphasis will be placed on differences encountered in mmWave IC design as compared to RFIC design due to technology capabilities and/or application requirements.
