Many new topologies and circuit design techniques have emerged recently to improve the performance of active inductors, but a comprehensive treatment of the theory, topology, characteristics, and design constraint of CMOS active inductors and transformers, and a detailed examination of their emerging applications in high-speed analog signal processing and data communications over wire and wireless channels, is not available. This book is an attempt to provide an in-depth examination and a systematic presentation of the operation principles and implementation details of CMOS active inductors and transformers, and a detailed examination of their emerging applications in high-speed analog signal processing and data communications over wire and wireless channels.

The content of the book is drawn from recently published research papers and are not available in a single, cohesive book. Equal emphasis is given to the theory of CMOS active inductors and transformers, and their emerging applications. Major subjects to be covered in the book include: inductive characteristics in high-speed analog signal processing and data communications, spiral inductors and transformers modeling and limitations, a historical perspective of device synthesis, the topology, characterization, and implementation of CMOS active inductors and transformers, and the application of CMOS active inductors and transformers in high-speed analog and digital signal processing and data communications.

Presents the operation principle, implementation detail, and emerging application of CMOS active inductors and transformers in high-speed analog signal processing and data communications Provides an in-depth investigation into the topology of active inductors and transformers and a detailed examination of the circuit implementation of CMOS active inductors and transformers Provides readers with both the theoretical and practical aspects of CMOS active inductors and transformers Material is presented in a self-contained manner with detailed comparison of the pros and cons of different configurations of CMOS active inductors and transformers and their distinct characteristics Serves as the first text that provides an in-depth examination and a systematic presentation of the operation principle, implementation detail, and emerging application of CMOS active inductors and transformers Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
