(No. of Hours: 11) Unit II

This document outlines the syllabus for an advanced VLSI design course. It is divided into 4 units covering topics such as MOS modeling, circuit layout techniques, noise in integrated circuits, MOS current sources and mirrors, CMOS amplifiers, comparators, MOSFET switches, and switched capacitor and data conversion circuits. It also specifies the instruction to paper setters, including that question 1 should cover the entire syllabus and be worth 25 marks, while the remaining questions should be divided among the 4 units. Suggested textbooks and reference materials are provided at the end.
