  • 4.00 Credits

    Semester course; 3 lecture and 3 laboratory hours. 4 credits. Prerequisites: EGRE 254 and CMSC 245. Basic computer organization, microprocessor instruction sets and architectures, assembly language programming and the function of computer memory and I/O subsystems will be discussed. The laboratory is designed to reinforce the lectures by providing the opportunity to study the workings of a simple computer system in detail using simulation models and real hardware. Students will write and execute assembly language programs and make use of commercial design automation tools.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Semester course; 3 lecture and 2 laboratory hours. 3 credits. Prerequisite: EGRE 254. Corequisite: EGRE 364. Focuses on the design of modern digital systems. Topics covered include: introduction to modeling, simulation, synthesis and FPGA design techniques using VHDL; microprocessor peripherals and interfacing; embedded system hardware and software design issues.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Semester course; 3 lecture and 1 laboratory hours. 3 credits. Prerequisite: EGRE 364 or CMSC 311. This course presents the foundation for computer design at the register transfer level. Starting from an instruction set architecture, students will learn the process used to design a data path and control unit to implement that instruction set. In addition, the topics of computer components and structures, data paths and control unit organizations, I/O and memory systems, interrupt systems, pipelining, and multiprocessing will be discussed. In addition to reinforcing the lecture material, the laboratory exercises will teach students the art of modeling and designing computer system components using a hardware description language.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Semester course; 3 lecture and 3 laboratory hours. 4 credits. Prerequisite: EGRE 426. This course provides students with practical foundations for the design, implementation and testing of digital systems. It expands on the digital and computer system theory presented in prerequisite courses. Topics covered include: microcontrollers and embedded processors, application specific IC (ASIC) architectures and implementing digital systems with ACISs, logic families and high-speed interfacing, logic synthesis, design methodologies, hardware/software codesign, production testing and design for testability, and construction, testing and debugging of digital system prototypes. In the laboratory, the students will design, construct, test and debug a multidisciplinary, computer-based hardware/software system for their senior design project.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Semester course; 3 lecture and 3 laboratory hours. 4 credits. Prerequisites: EGRE 303 and ENGR 334 or the consent of the instructor. This course presents a detailed analysis of the physics and modeling of the basic processes used in semiconductor processing. Emphasis is placed on the non-ideal effects that cause realistic processes to deviate from first order models, including second order effects such as interactions on the atomic level and the influence of crystal defects. After developing a theoretical understanding, a higher order physical modeling approach is derived. These models are implemented and explored in the laboratory section of the course using computer simulation and are used as a basis for designing a realistic semiconductor device process. Circuit layout software is used in the laboratory portion of the course to design a test chip specifically for the lab device process. This device and process design accomplishes the design phase of the senior design project, which is then completed in EGRE 436.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Semester course; 3 lecture and 3 laboratory hours. 4 credits. Prerequisite: EGRE 435 or consent of instructor. This course covers process integration into functional modules such as trench or LOCOS isolation, retrograde well formation, shallow junction formation, channel engineering, advanced gate structures and multilevel metal interconnects. This course covers low-pressure chemical vapor deposition, silicide formation, plasma etching of thin films and chemical mechanical polishing. A polysilicon gate CMOS process is used as the basis for studying many of the topics covered in lecture. Electrical characterization of devices and circuits also are included in the lab work.
