Synopsis

The demand for high speed Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) has always been on the rise. The availability of silicon germanium (SiGe) heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) devices has opened the door for gigahertz FPGAs. The integration of these high-speed SiGe HBTs and low power CMOS gives a significant speed advantage to SiGe FPGAs. This book concentrates on how to minimize power consumption in SiGe BiCMOS mixed-signal FPGAs, and the combination of ADCs and deserializers together with the FPGA. In this unique resource, Professor Zhou covers the following topics: 1.New low power circuit techniques, novel architectures, and layout skills for high-speed FPGA designs; 2.Applications of SiGe FPGAs from a real-world perspective. IBM SiGe BiCMOS processes are used for all circuits and applications; 3.Emerging trends in high-speed FPGA system and applications; 4.Testing requirements and methods for GHz circuits and blocks. IC designers can find detailed information of GHz circuit design and testing. This book can also help application engineers to understand the FPGA internal architectures and application optimization.
