MSc thesis project proposal
Co-design of Digitally-Controlled Oscillator and Divider for IoT Applications (Dialog)
Project outside the university
Dialog SemiconductorThe task of this master project is to find out and implement the optimal solution (power/noise/robustness) for DCO+DIV co-design in CMOS technology. The assignment can be divided into a few tasks:
1- Study new DCO topology like transformer-based or class-F to boost driving capability.
2- Study new DIV topology suitable in new technology node.
3- Study available DCO+DIV solutions and come out with a new proposal.
4- Circuits design and simulation.
5- Tape-out and measurement if schedule allows.
6- Documentation or even publication.
• This project comes with a student stipend!
