In my opinion , you should select a filed ,such as RF , Data convert , PLL.
etc, and the RF is too difficutl if you have good models and software for design ,and the testing is diffiult too.
ADC such as sigma-delta is very interesting and many sigma-delta theory and circuit theory used in it.
PLL is used widely , such as RF , Digtila system etc, and the noise performance is the key problem ,how to simulate and make it low is a good topic.
Hope this is useful for you
 

First read some articles/papers (simple ones from IEEE -- early years) and get a feel of what options you have. Then when you like an area ... look into more detailed papers from IEEE and decide on a topic
 

Do research on wireless for analog design ( LNA , PLL , Power Amplifier , Mixer , etc)it is challeging and you will learn a lot
 

can give some guide or refrence about analog ic design or cmos ic design, custom ic design
tnx
 

what is the free download link??? I couldn't download anything because i have 0 points.

 

analog integrated circuit design(john-martin). Very nice book
 

I am also starting a research at the university on analog integrated circuit design (power amplifiers)
 

prof. give you freedom ,you can do what you like, but it may be too difficlty. i suggest RF ic design ,if you like
good luck
 

hi, hawk
where is "the art of analog design" ebook

I can not find it,
can you help me? thanks in advance
 

As a beginner, U can do some easy circuits,such as amplier, bandgap reference.U should make u be interested in this topic.It is important.
 

Classical circuit such as 2 stage amplifier is a good start. Especially if u have some book with step by step explaination, it would help a lot in the learning process. John & Martin book is good~!!!
 

u may focus on the PLL od AD/DA
 

there are some good and interesting topics in analog ic design.

latch up
matching
shielding
crosstalk
 

Here are the big topics:

Data converter,
Filter,
PLL or Oscillator

Basic topics:
AMPLIFIER(norrow band/wide band), Current/Voltage Reference
 

there are so many aspects .

you can refer to them and find the intersts
 

You can learn much about PLL or AD/DA since you have a background of digital circuit!
 

razavi or allen good books for you to get a feeling about analog ic design

For a digital IC designer, a challenging topic would be to model the inductance of the interconnects which is a pretty hot topic.

For starters,
