Noise in Electronic Circuits

This lecture delves into the various types of noise present in electronic circuits, starting with thermal noise in resistors and shock noise in diodes. The instructor explains how flicker noise affects transistors and the impact of technology scaling on noise levels. Different techniques to model noise in devices and circuits are discussed, along with methods to calculate noise power spectral density and equivalent noise bandwidth. The lecture also covers noise propagation in circuits and how to calculate the signal-to-noise ratio.
