This book, first published in 2004, is an expanded and revised edition of Tom Lee's acclaimed RFIC text.This expanded and thoroughly revised edition of Thomas H. Lee's acclaimed guide to the design of gigahertz RF integrated circuits features a completely new chapter on the principles of wireless systems. The chapters on low-noise amplifiers, oscillators and phase noise have been significantly expanded as well. The chapter on architectures now contains several examples of complete chip designs that bring together all the various theoretical and practical elements involved in producing a prototype chip. To complement the new material, every other section of the book has been revised and updated.This expanded and thoroughly revised edition of Thomas H.
