EE I6400 Computer-Aided Digital VLSI Circuits Design
This course presents a systematic approach to the design of full-custom, very and ultra large scale integration (VLSI and ULSI) circuits, utilizing state-of-the-art electronic design automation (EDA) commercial engineering software - the Cadence Design System. It is to cover three major areas: CMOS Processing Technologies, High Performance Circuit Design techniques and Practices, Advanced EDA CAD Software Applications, coupled with relatively large scale (>one-million transistors) design projects.
