0306-630 - Introduction to VLSI Design

Institution:

Rochester Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

The course is an introduction to the design and implementation of very large scale integration (or VLSI) including NMOS, PMOS devices and CMOS circuits and digital subsystems. The procedures for designing and implementing digital integrated systems will be covered, including the Mead and Conway structural design approach consisting of the use of stick diagramming, scaling of CMOS design rules and techniques for estimating time delays. Emphasis will be placed on the use of static and domino logic CMOS circuits and regular structures. The use of workstations with Mentor Graphics design tools for circuit simulation and for physical layouts will be stressed. Laboratory design projects will be required.
