Design of CMOS Phase-Locked Loops: From Circuit Level to Architecture Level

Design of CMOS Phase-Locked Loops: From Circuit Level to Architecture Level is a detailed and technically rigorous textbook that bridges low-level transistor design with high-level system architecture in modern PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) systems. Published by Cambridge University Press, this book equips engineers and researchers with a complete framework for designing high-performance PLLs in CMOS technology.

Widely relevant to communication systems, frequency synthesizers, and VLSI design, the text combines theoretical foundations with practical engineering strategies. Step-by-step explanations, mathematical derivations, and design trade-offs make it a valuable reference for both academic study and real-world implementation.
