Analog Electronics Item ID: #208Design of Analog Cmos Integrated Circuits (Mcgraw-Hill Series in Electrical and Computer Engineering. Electronics and Vlsi Circuits)Product Information:
Item DescriptionThis textbook deals with the analysis and design of CMOS integrated circuits, emphasizing recent technological developments and design paradigms that students and practicing engineers need to master to succeed in today’s industry. Based on the author’s teaching and research experience in the past ten years, the text follows three general principles : (1) Motivate the reader by describing the significance and application of each idea with real-world problems; (2) Force the reader to look at concepts from an intuitive point of view. preparing him/her for more complex problems; (3) Complement the intuition by rigorous analysis, confirming the results obtained by the intuitive, yet rough approach.

This provides an excellent overview of introductory CMOS Analog and Mixed-Signal. A bit dated now.
One of the best out there for Analog CMOS. I enjoy all the author’s books including this one. Downside is lack of solutions for end-of-chapter problems. Also, beware! Amazon sent me the international edition. They thought I wouldn’t notice. I have decided not to deal with them again.
I recently completed an analog design class using the Razavi text. This book is a bit thin on semiconductor theory, but rich with circuit theory. I did not need to refer to other texts to achieve a high grade in the class.
Most of the problems are quite challenging; yet, if completed, one will become quite competent in the chapter material.
I was able to complete a SPICE-based qty 90 CMOS device project at the end of the semester.
A negative would be the lack of digital and non-linear analysis, but Razavi does scope the material to “analog.”
Some students complained that the derivations were thin and incomplete. I disagree; I thought steps used and explained were methodical, if not redundant. Again, I was never wanting for another text.
Other than the similar Grey and Meyer text, this text would certainly seem to become the standard for analog CMOS design.
Bought the the book on a Friday and was delivered by the following Tuesday. Book was in perfect condition.
This is by far the best book for analog designer. The only thing I wish to see is to include some simulation examples such as: AC analysis, noise analysis…
Also, as the technology moves to sub-micron, long channel approximation is no longer accurate. I wonder if author can comment on how to size the transistors for fewer spice iterations.
Maybe we will see them in the 2nd edition.
