Abstract:
|
This talk will
overview the status of the process development and
device design in RF CMOS technology, which is an
attractive potential process candidate for wireless
communication applications. The impact of
downscaling of CMOS technology to the RF
applications will be discussed first. Then the
trend of the device performance will be summarized
to understand the device behavior better for RF
design requirements. Several important
figure-of-merits for MOS transistors such as cutoff
frequency (fT), maximum oscillation frequency
(fmax), power-gain, noise figure (NF) and linearity
etc. will be analyzed together with the discussion
of other device components to explore the details
of RF CMOS technology. Modeling issues are also
introduced while discussing device design to
optimize the device performance for designers to
have better RF circuits. Finally some limitations
of the current RF CMOS process are addressed to
have a complete understanding of RF CMOS
technology.

Bio:
|
- Yuhua Cheng
received the B.S. degree in electrical
engineering from Shandong Polytechnic
University, Jinan, China in 1982, the M. S.
degree in electrical engineering from Tianjin
University, Tianjin, China in
- 1985, and the
Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from
Tsinghua University, Beijing, China in 1989.
- In 1990, he
joined in the Institute of Microelectronics
(IME), Peking University, China as an assistant
professor. From 1992 to 1996, he was an
associate professor in the IME and the
Department of Computer Science and Technology.
From 1994 to 1995, he was a Visiting Professor
at the University of Trondheim, Norway, and a
Research Fellow of the Norwegian Research
Council. From 1995 to 1997, he was a Research
Associate at the Department of Electrical
Engineering and Computer Sciences, University of
California, Berkeley, where he was working on
the BSIM3 model development and providing
technical support to the BSIM3 users from both
industry and academics. He was the project
coordinator of the BSIM3v3 model development and
was one of the
- principal
contributors of the BSIM3v3 model. In 1997, he
worked for a short period in Cadence Design
Systems as a Member of Consultant
Staff
- before he
joined Skyworks Solutions (formerly Conexant
Systems and Rockwell Semiconductor Systems),
where he is currently the senior manager of
device modeling and technology team responsible
for Mixed-signal/RF device (bipolar, MOS and
passive) modeling, DRC/LVS/PEX support and
foundry technology evaluations/assessments for
various (ASIC, Mixed-signal, RF) circuit
designs.
- He serves
technical program committees in several
international conferences including the IEEE
Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (CICC) and
Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits Symposium.
He has
- authored and
co-authored over 70 research papers, and two
books.
- He is a senior
member of IEEE, and serves in the
Regions/Chapter Committee of IEEE Electron
Device Society and the vice-chair of the North
America West subcommittee for Regions/Chapters
(SRC-NAW) of the EDS Regions/Chapters Committee.
He is an EDS Distinguished
Lecturer.
