A Course on

	MODERN ANALOG INTEGRATED CIRCUIT DESIGN

		   May 26-28, 1993

	University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario

Sponsored by:
Micronet: A Network of Centres of Excellence on Microelectronics Funded by
	  the Government of Canada
ITRC: Information Technology Research Centre: A Centre of Excellence
      Supported by Technology Ontario


Course Description:

This three day program offers in depth coverage of analog integrated
circuit design, ranging from fundamental to advanced principles, including
recent developments and advances in the following areas:
  *  Process Technology and Devices
  *  Basic Circuit Building Blocks
  *  Sampled-Data Analog Filters
  *  Data Converters
  *  Current Related Design Issues

Who Should Attend:

Engineers, scientists, engineering managers and senior graduate students
involved in integrated circuit designa. Both experienced as well as
novice analog circuit designers will find the course useful as
approximately one-third of the program is devoted to a review of
fundamental principles and the rest examines advanced concepts and recent
developments.
