The main aim of the course is to provide an introduction to the design of a vast area of analog/digital interface circuits and systems: sensors, trasducers, wireless and wireline front-ends, electro-optical front-ends, etc...
At the end of the course the students will be able to identify the main type and architectures of filters (including equalizers) and analog/digital, digital/analog converters used in these systems.
They will be able to provide the general guidelines for the selection and design of the appropriate type and architecture of filters and analog/digital converter architectures based on the specifications of the analog/digital interface to be implemented. They will also have the tools to study and develop new architectures using the most advanced CAD tools and techniques.
