CMOS Circuit Design, Layout, and Simulation, 3rd Edition

by R. Jacob Baker

Praise for
CMOS: Circuit Design, Layout, and SimulationRevised Second Edition
from the Technical Reviewers

"A refreshing industrial flavor. Design concepts are presented as they are needed for 'just-in-time' learning. Simulating and designing circuits using SPICE is emphasized with literally hundreds of examples. Very few textbooks contain as much detail as this one. Highly recommended!"
—Paul M. Furth, New Mexico State University

"This book builds a solid knowledge of CMOS circuit design from the ground up. With coverage of process integration, layout, analog and digital models, noise mechanisms, memory circuits, references, amplifiers, PLLs/DLLs, dynamic circuits, and data converters, the text is an excellent reference for both experienced and novice designers alike."
—Tyler J. Gomm, Design Engineer, Micron Technology, Inc.

"The Second Edition builds upon the success of the first with new chapters that cover additional material such as oversampled converters and non-volatile memories. This is becoming the de facto standard textbook to have on every analog and mixed-signal designer's bookshelf."
—Joe Walsh, Design Engineer, AMI Semiconductor

CMOS circuits from design to implementation

CMOS: Circuit Design, Layout, and Simulation, Revised Second Edition covers the practical design of both analog and digital integrated circuits, offering a vital, contemporary view of a wide range of analog/digital circuit blocks, the BSIM model, data converter architectures, and much more. This edition takes a two-path approach to the topics: design techniques are developed for both long- and short-channel CMOS technologies and then compared. The results are multidimensional explanations that allow readers to gain deep insight into the design process. Features include:

Updated materials to reflect CMOS technology's movement into nanometer sizes

Discussions on phase- and delay-locked loops, mixed-signal circuits, data converters, and circuit noise

More than 1,000 figures, 200 examples, and over 500 end-of-chapter problems

In-depth coverage of both analog and digital circuit-level design techniques

Real-world process parameters and design rules

The book's Web site, CMOSedu.com, provides: solutions to the book's problems; additional homework problems without solutions; SPICE simulation examples using HSPICE, LTspice, and WinSpice; layout tools and examples for actually fabricating a chip; and videos to aid learning

Genres: Engineering, Textbooks

Though it is a very good book I think if one wants specific knowledge of Layout in CMOS he can use Dan Clein's book,Analog layout Alan Hastings,for Modelling tsividis

Welcome to VLSI world,
This book taught me a lot on digital logic and design at the transistor level

[Sohaib · Rating 4 out of 5]

One of the best books you can find on CMOS layout and design. Although, its approach is sometimes very simple, but the breadth of information and especially the information regarding the process and what really are the issues at that nano-scale level of the transistor, it has been an enlightening experience. This book is really vast in topics but when you are working on CMOS circuit design, gives a sense of completeness and leaves no gaps in between as most of the textbooks do.

Reading this book as part of my Final Year Project. Its quite a helpful book, though the approach is more numeric than theoretical. The book also has a second edition, something to do with Mixed-signal designing I guess.

i am thinking to gain knowledge of this book...........

My copy of this book can regularly be found at someone else's desk. It continues to be a useful reference for day-to-day IC design activities.

Too much emphasis on SPICE.
