VLSI design

Beginning with an introduction to VLSI systems and basic concepts of MOS transistors, this second edition of the book then proceeds to describe the various concepts of VLSI, such as the structure and operation of MOS transistors and inverters, standard cell library design and its characterization, analog and digital CMOS logic design, semiconductor memories, and BiCMOS technology and circuits. It then provides an exhaustive step-wise discussion of the various stages involved in designing a VLSI chip (which includes logic synthesis, timing analysis, floor planning, placement and routing, verification, and testing). In addition, the book includes chapters on FPGA architecture, VLSI process technology, subsystem design, and low power logic circuits The second edition of VLSI Design is a comprehensive textbook designed for undergraduate students of electrical, electronics, and electronics and communication engineering. It provides a thorough understanding of the fundamental concepts and design of VLSI systems. VLSI Design is intended to serve as a comprehensive textbook for undergraduate students of engineering. It seeks to provide a thorough understanding of the fundamental concepts and design of VLSI systems.
