Analog/mixed-signal circuit design in nano CMOS era

This paper describes analog/mixed-signal circuit design in the nano CMOS era. Digitally-assisted analog technology is becoming more important, and as an example, our fully digital FPGA implementation of a TDC with self-calibration is shown. Since pure analog circuits are still present and “good” device modeling is required for their designs, device modeling technology for nano CMOS with complicated behavior is also reviewed.
