Circuit Design for Modern Applications explores the recent innovations in semiconductor technology. Bandgap reference circuits, quad model transistors, voltagecontrolled oscillators, LDO regulators, power amplifiers, low noise amplifiers, operational amplifiers, low-power CNTFET-based quaternary multipliers, and STT MRAM-based cache memory for multicore systems are discussed. It points out the difficulties in designing CMOS analog and RF circuits for mmWave applications and looks into newly developed field-effect transistors for an alternate solution. Innovative devices such as III-V material-based HEMTs, and junctionless FETs are discussed
