Praxisorientierter Entwurf von integrierten Hochfrequenz-ICs
Titel auf Englisch: Radio Frequency Integrated Circuit Design Lab
Lernergebnisse
After successfully completing the module, students have an overview of radio frequency (RF) transceiver architectures, RF devices and active/passive microelectronic components. They are able to apply common software tools for the design, layout and verification based on a mixer circuit realized on an IHP high performance semiconductor technology. Students are able to go through the entire design cycle from specification, schematic entry, simulation, layout to validation of the tape-out capable design of an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC).
