Contains revised tutorial papers from an April 1996 workshop. Part I demonstrates the viability of using CMOS for high-frequency communication applications, and explores wireless communication applications. Part II describes the latest developments in analog-to- digital and digital-to-analog converters, their applications in areas such as telecommunication and audio systems, and CAD tools for the design of such converters. Part III presents the latest research and techniques for designing translinear circuits using both bipolar and CMOS technologies. For analog design engineers, researchers, and advanced students.
