Description
Learn Advanced MOSFET Circuits: From Cascode Amplifiers to Differential Amplifiers Using LTSpice
This course is a complete hands-on guide to advanced MOSFET circuit design and analysis, designed for students and engineers who already understand MOSFET basics and want to move toward analog IC design and high-performance amplifier circuits.
If you have learned MOSFET DC analysis and basic amplifiers but struggle to understand current sources, cascode configurations, and differential amplifiers, this course will give you the missing clarity - step by step, using LTSpice simulations.
We start by revising essential fundamentals to ensure a smooth transition, and then gradually build up to professional-level MOSFET circuits used in analog VLSI, op-amps, and integrated amplifiers.
