Synopsis

Today most, if not all, microelectronic circuit design is carried out with the aid of a computer-aided circuit analysis program such as SPICE. This volume describes how SPICE is employed in the analysis of microelectronic circuits, and more importantly, outlines how SPICE is used in the process of design itself. Each example is keyed to those that are presented in Microelectronic Circuits, Third Edition, by Sedra and Smith, where a complete hand analysis is provided.

From the Back Cover

SPICE (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis) has become the industry standard for computer-aided circuit analysis for microelectronic circuits, and it is used by the majority of IC designers in North America today. Unlike most SPICE books, which simply present SPICE in a how-to-use fashion, this volume outlines how SPICE is used in the process of design itself. It features methodologies for analyzing transistor and op amp circuits, over 100 SPICE examples, and numerous chapter problems. In many cases, new designers of electronic circuits blindly search for ways to improve the design itself using a brute-force, hit-and-miss approach. The intention of this book is to avoid this pitfall by teaching readers what not to do with SPICE. This is accomplished by keying each example in this text to those presented in Sedra and Smith's Microelectronic Circuits 3/E, where a complete hand analysis is provided. Another benefit of this book is that it can also stand alone as a manual for computer-aided circuit analysis for microelectronic circuits.
