Description:
The book covers all phases of IC design, from planning and layout to architecture, fabrication and packaging. It discusses design problems and techniques specific to custom IC design, and CMOS ICs in particular; and presents other techniques that are useful in almost any implementation technology, including gate arrays and programmable logic devices. To reflect the increasingly high densities and frequencies involved in today's circuit design, this new edition contains much more coverage of transistor characteristics, reviews a wider variety of gate design, covers interconnect delay in greater detail, and adds new coverage of crosstalk, clock period determination, clock distribution, multiplication and RAM design. Throughput, the book provides new insights into designing for lower power consumption.
