| The goal | Introducing students to the back-end design of integrated circuits and systems. Training students to work with basic software packages for designing integrated circuits at the mask level. | |||
| The outcome | Students had the basic knowledge of techniques and ability to design a small project of IC or integrated system using the Full Custom method. | |||
| Contents | ||||
| Contents of lectures | Short survey. CMOS production process. MOS transistor characteristics and models. Scaling. Full - custom IC design, rules and methods. Standard - cell design. Circuit extraction and simulation. Large capacitive loading, output buffers. Practical design aspects for combinational and sequential logic circuits. Structured logic design, clocking. Dissipation. | |||
| Contents of exercises | Design project in several phases is obligatory for each student (Cadence), starting from the Full Custom design of simple integrated circuits, through hierarchical design, to integration into a system of lower complexity. | |||
