Description: Covers the essentials of contemporary radio frequency (RF) com- plimentary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) inte- grated circuit (IC) analysis and design. Addresses typical RF building blocks in CMOS and bipolar/CMOS (BiCMOS) technologies, including passive IC compo- nents, transistors, distributed networks, voltage refer- ence and biasing circuits, power amplifiers, and feed- back networks. Also covers RF device modeling, bandwidth estimation, and stability analysis tech- niques.
