Product Description
Winner of the Frederick Emmons Terman Award CMOS: Circuit Design, Layout, and Simulation, Revised Second Edition covers the practical design of both analog and digital integrated circuits, offering a vital, contemporary view of a wide range of analog/digital circuit blocks, the BSIM model, data converter architectures, and much more. This edition takes a two-path approach to the topics: design techniques are developed for both long- and short-channel CMOS technologies and then compared. The results are multidimensional explanations that allow readers to gain deep insight into the design process. Features include: - Updated materials to reflect CMOS technology's movement into nanometer sizes
- Discussions on phase- and delay-locked loops, mixed-signal circuits, data converters, and circuit noise
- More than 1,000 figures, 200 examples, and over 500 end-of-chapter problems
- In-depth coverage of both analog and digital circuit-level design techniques
- Real-world process parameters and design rules
The book's Web site, CMOSedu.com, provides: solutions to the book's problems; additional homework problems without solutions; SPICE simulation examples using HSPICE, LTspice, and WinSpice; layout tools and examples for actually fabricating a chip; and videos to aid learning

 Very Comprehensive IC Design Text February 5, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After some getting used to, this book has rapidly become one of my favorites. It came highly recommended to me by my boss at my internship with Microchip, was a great help while preparing for interviews, and I still use it at work. This book is not a replacement for such fundamental material as Gray & Meyer, but because it doesn't dwell on the extreme basics I think it is able to have a much broader coverage of each topic. So, if you're buying your first EE text book you may want to get Gray & Meyer. If you're the guy using stuff that has data sheets, then this book may still not be for you. BUT, if you're looking to do IC design, and want to be the guy MAKING those confusing data sheets, then BUY THIS BOOK.

It is the most expensive book I've ever had. However, I don't regret to buy it, because it is a really useful and nice book.
Clear, concrete, comprehensive, self-contained CMOS text August 30, 2007

Here's the review I submitted for the 1st edition. I have the 2nd edition, and this review is still pertinent. And Jake even addressed the metastability issue! There are 6 different index entries talking about metastability, and how to avoid/minimize it. It's a beautiful book.

Clear, concrete, comprehensive, self-contained CMOS text, March 29, 1999
Reviewer: A reader
The best of books say something important, and say it well. CMOS Circuit Design, Layout, and Simulation by Baker, Li, and Boyce is such a book. Rather than an opinion-free text, it's insight mixed with experience; when something is important, they tell you it's important.
The style is very clear, the copious graphics help explain and cement the ideas, and the numerous worked exercises, which apply the theory just developed, allow the exposition to flow -- it makes sense, the transitions are smooth and well motivated, and there are a lot of very good ideas and clever circuits in the book.
In addition to design, layout, and simulation of digital, analog, and mixed signal circuits (including memory circuits, Schmitt Triggers, PLLs, A2Ds, D2As, and VCOs), there is enough background in device physics to justify the equations underlying the theory.
The exposition is exceptional. The figures are usually on the same or facing page so you can look at what's being described. Derivations are worked out with a wealth of schematics and small signal models. The book is centered on CMOS, so there's no need to translate bipolar designs from earlier classic texts like Gray and Meyer. The treatment is up to date, with recent research results included and explained.
The book is comprehensive, complete, self-contained, and practical; it's anchored in a real process, works with (but does not require) the LASI CAD software, and provides ready access to design information, from the inside front cover summaries to a chapter on extracting parameters from BSIM models for hand calculation through the process and design rules in the appendices.
The only significant omission is a description of metastability, and how to reduce its impact.
This book is a creation of care and craft. It is a joy to read and to review.

As indicated in the subtitle, this book covers design, layout and simulation. By simulation is meant that layout and circuit simulation software are introduced as practical tools.
The book covers a wide range of topics and a wide range of levels. Although I believe a reader would be more comfortable with this book if they already had experience with an introductory circuit book like Sedra and Smith, it should be possible to actually start from scratch with Baker's book by reading how a MOSFET works (CH 6) and going through the examples (e.g., CH 9). However, that requires a bit of reader planning to see what is basic and what is more advanced, as the level of difficulty in each topic usually starts off simple, but never stops until you are at a graduate school level.
A lot of practical detail stemming from the author's personal design experience shows up on each page. A basic design approach is stated and followed throughout. There is a hands-on attitude in this book that is missing from other texts.
The prospective reader can gain a pretty good flavor of what is happening by looking around the companion website at http://cmosedu.com/
Great Text July 11, 2007

I have been using this book for over two years and it still helps in my day to day research. The book has all the information and tricks you need to successfully design a circuit for state of art research as well as in industry. I have also tried to use the other popular books on Analog Circuit Design, but this text is simply outstanding.
The author deftly presents otherwise traditionally arcane ideas in a lucid and systematic manner. For example, in no other book I have seen the step by step guideline to design an amplifier for a given process by for a given speed or gain specification. The trade-offs involved are well explained and illustrated. The concepts are well supported by examples and the book website is also updated regularly with the latest design tools. Recent incorporation of HSpice, LTSpice and Electric on the book website is also welcome. Actually the cmosedu book website is a great treasure trove for aspiring analog mixed signal designers. Do check out the example chips done with MOSIS in Electric, which is a free but great tool.
I would summarize with the comment that the author Dr Baker has done an excellent job in presenting all the CMOS circuit related information in one book. In fact he has done the best one could do in 1000 pages. For people who need detailed information on MOS transistor Physics I would recommend the MOS book by Dr. Tsividis. Also for extra detailed mathematical analysis, if you really need it, you can refer to the JSSC papers referenced at the end of chapter in the book or can try the Gray Meyer book on Analog circuits.
Also for the mixed signal designers the second CMOS: Mixed Signal book is highly recommended. Actually thats the only conclusive text available on the topic.
