Description (from Cornell's Course Catalog)
Introduction to digital VLSI design. Topics include basic transistor physics, switching networks and transistors, combinational and sequential logic, latches, clocking strategies, domino logic, PLAs, memories, physical design, floor planning, CMOS scaling, and performance and power considerations, etc. Lecture and homework topics emphasize disciplined design, and include CMOS logic, layout, and timing; computer-aided design and analysis tools; and electrical and performance considerations.tectures, and case studies.
