# RFICS Presentation Structure
## Organizational stuff
- Duration: 10 minutes slides + 15 minutes questions
- Bring own laptop or send slides
## Content
- Background and Introduction
- Standard way of doing things ("Old technique")
- Explanation of issue the ideas in the paper are aimed at
- Proposed Ideas
- Discussion of semiconductor technology; Comparison with IHP technology (if
sufficient details are provided)
- Circuit schematics
- Explanation of which topology is used and why
- Is there anything unconventional about the design?
- Explanation of measurement results in paper
- Simulation Results
- Explanation of design steps (e.g., approach proposed in lecture: worry
about bias in the end)
- How transistors were chosen
- Choice of operating point
- Rest of schematic details
- Simulation of circuit in paper (with explanation - I guess intuitive
explanation of why things look the way they do?)
- If the design in the paper is different to the standard approach:
Comparison of pros and cons with standard topology, with simulations
- Discussion
- Own observations and opinions about the ideas in the paper
- (Bonus) Further simulations with ideas from the lecture
- Conclusion
## Things not to include
- Layout issues and optimization are out of scope, in case they exist in the
paper
