CMOS IC Layout: Concepts, Methodologies, and Tools with CDROM: Concepts, Methodologies and Tools

This book includes basic methodologies, review of basic electrical rules and how they apply, design rules, IC planning, detailed checklists for design review, specific layout design flows, specialized block design, interconnect design, and also additional information on design limitations due to production requirements. *Practical, hands-on approach to CMOS layout theory and design *Offers engineers and technicians the training materials they need to stay current in circuit design technology. *Covers manufacturing processes and their effect on layout and design decisions A manual for computer design engineers explaining the integrated circuit (IC) design techniques using complementary metal oxide semiconductors (CMOS). Apparently written for those who have a fairly advanced knowledge of the CAD field, ten chapters cover such information as schematic fundamentals, layout design, building block interconnect, techniques to address electrical characteristics, process constraints, and uncertain environments. The CD-ROM contains color drawings of the circuit examples contained in the book, some presentations from marketing managers addressing methodologies and tools, and an editing program that allows readers to practice on the examples presented. This book includes basic methodologies, review of basic electrical rules and how they apply, design rules, IC planning, detailed checklists for design review, specific layout design flows, specialized block design, interconnect design, and also additional information on design limitations due to production requirements.

*Practical, hands-on approach to CMOS layout theory and design

*Offers engineers and technicians the training materials they need to stay current in circuit design technology.

*Covers manufacturing processes and their effect on layout and design decisions "CMOS IC Layout presents not only the basics and theory of IC layout and design, but also useful step-by-step procedures to make every circuit designer's job easier and more productive." "CMOS IC Layout offers skill training based on the author's working experience, and gives new written procedures and guidelines."--Jacket
