page 1Electrical Engineering RFIC I San Jose State UniversityFall 2007Course Description:The radio frequency integrated circuit design 1 (RFIC I) is an introductory graduate level course whichcovers topics of wireless transceiver architectures, RF modeling of transistors and integrated componentslike planar inductors, capacitors and transformers in submicron CMOS and Bipolar processes, networktheory, S-parameters, power gains of 2-port networks, lumped transmission lines, wideband impedancematching and concepts such as intercept points, intermodulation distortion and link budgets of transmitterdistortion as well as phase noise, noise figure and link budgets of receiver noise.Prerequisite:EE124 and EE142 with a basic knowledge of analog circuits, communications theory and transmissionlines.Textbook:The RFIC notes, authored by Prof. Hamedi-Hagh, are available to purchase from IEEE office. Studentsmust respect the copyright law. Notes cannot be copied or duplicated under any conditions.Suggested Textbooks for Extra Readings:• B. Razavi, RF Microelectronics, Upper Saddle River, New Jersey, Prentice Hall, 1998.• T. H. Lee, The Design of CMOS Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits, Cambridge, U.K., CambridgeUniversity Press, 2004.• D.M. Pozar, Microwave Engineering, New York, John Wiley, 1998.Grading:midterm exam 20%assignments 20%project 30%final exam 30%Exams:Exams will be based on the lecture notes and class discussions. Exam schedules are listed on the coursesyllabus. The midterm exam will be 75 minutes with 3 questions and the final exam will be 135 minuteswith 5 questions. Exams will be open note. Students will not be admitted to the class 10 minutes after thestart of each exam. There will be no make-up exam and those absent will receive no credit.Assignments:Class assignments will involve problem sets, system level simulations and EM analysis. Moreinformation will be available under the EE220 course menu in http://www.ics.sjsu.eduProject:More details on projects, related to the topics discussed in this course, will be provided as the lecturesprogress. Projects, assigned to different student groups, require a formal report typed using a word processor(i.e. Microsoft Office) with all original graphs included. Students must submit the printed version of theirreports along with all supporting data and writeup in a readable CD by the last Friday noon of the semesterbefore the exams start.Course Title and Number Radio Frequency Integrated Circuit Design I, EE220InstructorProf. S.
