Learn the fundamentals of integrated communication microsystems
Advanced communication microsystems--the latest technologyto emerge in the semiconductor sector aftermicroprocessors--require integration of diverse signalprocessing blocks in a power-efficient and cost-effective manner.Typically, these systems include data acquisition, data processing,telemetry, and power management. The overall development is asynergy among system, circuit, and component-level designs with astrong emphasis on integration.
This book is targeted at students, researchers, and industrypractitioners in the semiconductor area who require a thoroughunderstanding of integrated communication microsystems from adeveloper's perspective. The book thoroughly and carefullyexplores:
* Fundamental requirements of communication microsystems
* System design and considerations for wired and wirelesscommunication microsystems
* Advanced block-level design techniques for communicationmicrosystems
* Integration of communication systems in a hybrid environment
* Packaging considerations
* Power and form factor trade-offs in building integratedmicrosystems
Advanced Integrated Communication Microsystems is an idealtextbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses. It alsoserves as a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners incircuit design for telecommunications and related fields.
