ELEC692 Syllabus 2010fall PDF

The document provides a course syllabus for a mixed-signal integrated bio-sensory circuit design class. The course will cover topics related to mixed-signal integrated circuit design and biological mechanisms related to existing bio-medical IC designs. The first half of the course will focus on mixed-signal IC design topics like devices, op amps, filters, noise, and ADCs. The second half will cover biosensory and medical IC design topics like bio-potential detection, implants, DNA detection, imaging, and medical imaging technologies. Students will complete reading assignments, attend lectures and discussions, and a final design project. Background in analog circuit design and Cadence is required. Class participation and a final project will determine grades.

Mixed-Signal Integrated Bio-Sensory Circuit Design

COURSE SYLLABUS
Course Description
Biology has been a long-stand fascination of the human society. As semiconductor technologies
advance, bio-medical application-specific integrated circuits have become a major trend of the
industry. The course aims to systematically introduce both major issues of mixed-signal circuit
designs and biological mechanisms related to existing IC designs. The course will cover state-of-
art design examples of this multi-disciplinary field.

This course is organized on a series of important topics in the mixed-signal and bio-medical IC
field. Every class is dedicated to one topic. The class is a mixture of paper discussion and regular
lectures. The first half course is dedicated to mixed-signal IC design. The course starts with 2
review classes on devices, packaging, OPAMP design, and filter design. Then, the course covers
topics on noise, pipelined ADC, Sigma-delta ADC, and SAR ADC. The second half course is
dedicated to sensory and bio-medical IC design. The topics include bio-potential detection,
implants, DNA detection, CCD, CMOS imaging, and CT/SPECT.

The course has regular paper reading assignments. The course has one design project as the final
exam. After the course, students are expected to understand the fundamental concepts of mixed-
signal IC designs, the current status and challenges in the design of bio-sensory mixed-signal
integrated circuits, with hands-on project experience.

Course Prerequisite

Students must have taken Elec 304 or equivalent and must have basic skills in designing and
analyzing analog integrated circuits. Students are preferred to have taken Elec504. Although
extensive review will be done whenever possible, it will be assumed that students are familiar
with OPAMP design, feedback, stability, filter design, and noise. It is also expected that students
should have experience in Cadence. The project assignments are in Cadence.
