IEEE: General Meeting
Mon, Feb 05, 2007
Viterbi School of Engineering Student Organizations
Student Activity
General Meeting with Professor John Choma: Research, Development, and Design Issues in Broadband Analog Integrated CircuitsThis talk overviews several research, development, and design issues that surround the realization of broadband analog integrated circuits earmarked for application in state of the art communication systems. Included among the topics for discussion are conventional and adaptive strategies for implementing low power, low voltage amplifiers for the front ends of communication networks, and broadband design techniques. Also addressed are linearity and noise issues in oscillators, multipliers, and amplifiers. Subsequent to an abridged, high-level discussion of state of the art design practices, attention is devoted to perceived future design and modeling trends, as well as how interested students might best prepare themselves for satisfying careers in the circuits and systems community.
