A Complete and accessible introduction to modern digital VLSI designClearly Written for both classroom use and self-stuwritten and drawings, John. Uyemura's comprehensive introduction to modern VLSI design makes the subject accessible to students and professionals from a broad range of backgrounds, such s electrical engineering, computer engineering, and computer science. The text presents CMOS logic circuits, fabrication, and layout in a cohesive manner that links the material together with the system-level considerations.
Throughout, the text emphasizes the top-down design procedure used to engineer complex VLSI chips, which enables readers to see the tradeoffs that occur at all levels of the design hierarchy. You'll learn how to compare different solutions to a CMOS logic implementation problem, and how the choices affect the overall outcome.
Features
- Presents a comprehensive treatment of modern VLSI design.
- An accompanying CD-ROM containing student versions of Verilog® and SPICE simulators that can be run on a Windows® PC operating system.
