Book Description

This comprehensive book on application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) describes the latest methods in VLSI-systems design. ASIC design, using commercial tools and predesigned cell libraries, is the fastest, most cost-effective, and least error-prone method of IC design. As a consequence, ASICs and ASIC-design methods have become increasingly popular in industry for a wide range of applications.

The book covers both semicustom and programmable ASIC types. After describing the fundamentals of digital logic design and the physical features of each ASIC type, the book turns to ASIC logic design-design entry, logic synthesis, simulation, and test-and then to physical design-partitioning, floorplanning, placement, and routing. You will find here, in practical, well-explained detail, everything you need to know to understand the design of an ASIC, and everything you must do to begin and to complete your own design.

• Michael Smith is both an experienced ASIC designer and a creative educator, with support from the National Science Foundation, and an array of Silicon Valley companies, including Viewlogic, VLSI Technology, Compass Design Automation, Xilinx, and Actel. Smith holds a B.A. from Cambridge University in the U.K. and a Ph.D. from Stanford. He is a recipient of the NSF Presidential Young Investigator Award.

• Compact Models for Integrated Circuit Design

  This book provides a modern treatise on compact models for circuit computer-aided design (CAD), offers a balanced presentation of compact modeling crucial for addressing current modeling challenges and understanding new models for emerging devices.

• Network-on-Chip: The Next Generation of System-on-Chip

  This book provides a basic overview of topics associated with NoC-based design: communication infrastructure design, communication methodology, evaluation framework, and mapping of applications onto NoC.

• Flexible Circuit Technology (Joseph Fjelstad)

  This book was written to provide a bridge of understanding by offering a clearly defined set of steps which take the reader from basic concepts of flexible circuits to a more detailed review of the various technology and materials.

• Designing Analog Chips (Hans Camenzind)

  A comprehensive introduction to CMOS and bipolar analog IC design. The book presumes no prior knowledge of linear design, making it comprehensible to engineers with a non-analog background.
