The operation frequencies, bandwidths and data capacities of communications systems are continuously increasing by employing advanced technologies and aggressive scaling of device dimensions. However, the restrictions inherent in scaling make the design of radio frequency integrated circuits a demanding task. To meet the corresponding challenges designers must provide profound skills inseveral areas including circuit theory, silicon and compound semiconductor technologies, communications standards, system design, measurement techniques, etc. In its second edition, book aims at addressing all these multidisciplinaryissues in a compact and comprehensive form and in a single volume. Suitable for students, engineers and scientists, the manuscript offers the necessary theoretical background together with cookbook-like optimisation strategies and state-of-the-art design examples. Latest technologies, applications and broad range of circuits are discussed Approach of "one book provides all" High speed circuits including optimization procedures are discussed in detail. Additional circuits are presented INDICE: Instruction.- Transceiver Architectures.- S-Parameters and Impedance Transformation.- RF Basics.- Transistor and Technologies.- Passive Devices and Networks.- Basic Amplifier Circuits.- Low Noise Amplifiers.- Power Amplifiers.- Mixers.- Oscillators.- Phase Locked Loops and Synthesisers.- Amplitude Control and Switches.- Phase Shifters.- Measurement Basics.
