For maximizing the application of a measurement circuit or system, yet considering its integration in a single chip, these circuits must be programmable, in order to serve to different kinds of sensors with diverse output signal characteristics. The main functions of the signal conditioning circuit, in this case, are the amplification and dc level shift of the analog signal. In this master s thesis, an architecture of a signal conditioning integrated circuit with programmable gain and dc level shift, optimized in number of discrete components, using the switched capacitor technique is proposed. The proposed architecture allows the circuit use in differential and single-ended modes, with unipolar and bipolar signals. The design of an integrated circuit is carried out for implementing the proposed architecture using 0.35 mm TSMC CMOS technology, available in the ASIC design kit (ADK) of the Mentor Graphics, IC Nanometer software package. / Em sistemas digitais de medição, circuitos de condicionamento de sinais têm como principal finalidade o ajuste dos sinais analógicos para realização da conversão digital. Para maximização da aplicação de um circuito ou sistema de medição, considerando ainda sua integração em uma única pastilha, esses circuitos têm que ser programáveis, de forma a atender a diversos tipos de sensores com características de sinais de saída diversas. As principais funções do circuito de condicionamento, neste caso, são a amplificação e o ajuste de nível cc do sinal analógico. Nesta dissertação, propõe-se uma arquitetura de um circuito de condicionamento integrado com ajuste de nível cc e ganho programáveis, otimizada em número de componentes discretos, usando a técnica de capacitores chaveados. A arquitetura proposta permite a utilização do circuito nos modos diferencial e de terminação única, unipolar ou bipolar. Um projeto de um circuito integrado é realizado implementando a arquitetura proposta em tecnologia CMOS 0,35 mm TSMC, disponível no ASIC design kit (ADK) do pacote de programas da Mentor Graphics, IC Nanometer.

L’objet de la thèse est la modélisation de systèmes hétérogènes intégrant différents domaines de la physique et à signaux mixtes, numériques et analogiques (AMS). Une étude approfondie de différentes techniques d’extraction et de calibration de modèles comportementaux de composants analogiques à différents niveaux d’abstraction et de précision est présentée. Cette étude a mis en lumière trois approches principales qui ont été validées par la modélisation de plusieurs applications issues de divers domaines: un amplificateur faible bruit (LNA), un capteur chimique basé sur des ondes acoustiques de surface (SAW), le développement à plusieurs niveaux d’abstraction d’un capteur CMOS vidéo, et son intégration dans une plateforme industrielle. Les outils développés sont basés sur les extensions AMS du standard IEEE 1666 SystemC mais les techniques proposées sont facilement transposables à d’autres langages tels que VHDL-AMS ou Verilog-AMS utilisés en conception de dispositifs mixtes. / The thesis objective is the modeling of heterogeneous systems. Such systems integrate different physical domains (mechanical, chemical, optical or magnetic) therefore integrate analog and mixed- signal (AMS) parts. The aim is to provide a methodology based on high-level modeling for assisting both the design and the verification of AMS systems. A study on different techniques for extracting behavioral models of analog devices at different abstraction levels and computational weights is presented. Three approaches are identified and regrouped in three techniques. These techniques have been validated through the virtual prototyping of different applications issued from different domains: a low noise amplifier (LNA), a surface acoustic wave-based (SAW) chemical sensor, a CMOS video sensor with models developed at different abstraction levels and their integration within an industrial platform. The flows developed are based on the AMS extensions of the SystemC (IEEE 1666) standard but the methodologies can be implemented using other Analog Hardware Description Languages (VHDL-AMS, Verilog-AMS) typically used for mixed-signal microelectronics design.
