The Design of CMOS Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuits, Second Edition

Customer Reviews:

Not an introductory text

By RFguy - May 25, 2005

If you're looking for a book on CMOS design this is not it. An excellent choice would be the book by Gray and Meyer. If you're looking for a book on RF design this is not it either. Unfortunately there is no definitive text on RF design. For RF system concepts I like 'Radio Communications Concepts: Analog' by Ralph Carson. For a good intro to S-parameters and matching take a look at 'Microwave Transistor Amplifiers' by Gonzales. For in-depth treatment try 'Microwave and RF Circuits: Analysis, Synthesis and Design' by Max Medley, but be warned this one is very math intensive and assumes a good knowledge of network theory. For some good RF cookbook circuits get Vizmuller's, 'RF Design Guide'. I've yet to find a good overall treatment of nonlinear circuits.

So what is this book? If you are familiar with discrete RF design and have a knowledge of CMOS analog design this book helps you tie the two together for high frequency RFIC design. Although the level of detail is a little... read more

Excellent introduction to CMOS RF Design

By A Customer - February 10, 2000

Possibly the most well-written book on CMOS design I have ever read. Relaxed, readable style and an emphasis on core ideas and rule-of-thumb design rules, makes this an extremely useful practical guide, as well as a great introduction to a complex topic. Some excellent advanced material on oscillator design too. I particularly liked the first and last chapters giving a history of radio design - very interesting background. I think the best compliment I can give this book is that I found it difficult to put down - for a circuits textbook, that is truly an incredible achievement!

Great book, maybe not such a great title !

By R. A Benson - July 28, 2004

I am an analog / mixed signal / signal processing / RF engineer with 30+ years of design experience. A friend of mine lent me the book. I could not put it down! This book was not purchased with with the expectation of designing RF ICs, hence my minor dig on the title. The book is really a broad band reference covering a wide range of topics including some great history. Professor Lee has created a reference that is only outdone by the likes of Frederick Terman! His humor is also keenly appreciated. The rest of the ivory-tower stuffed-shirts could benefit from a lecture or two by Lee on this topic :-)
