Features: The book focuses exclusively on deep submicrometer CMOS devices. A simple transistor model called the Universal MOS Model, developed for manual analysis, is used throughout the book. Design examples are practical and emphasize digital integrated circuit design. The book highlights the challenges and design guidelines in the design process. All examples and exercises are based on a 0.25-micrometer CMOS process. "Design Methodology Insert Notes" are interspersed throughout the book, emphasizing the importance of design methodology and tools in today's design process. Each chapter concludes with a summary that explores future technology trends. The book is written by Professor Jan M. Rabaey of the University of California, Berkeley. It consists of 12 chapters, divided into three parts: Basic Units, Circuit Design, and System Design. After briefly introducing the characteristics of MOS devices and interconnects, the book delves into the core of digital design—the inverter—and gradually extends this knowledge to the design of complex digital circuits and systems, such as combinational logic circuits, sequential logic circuits, controllers, arithmetic circuits, and memory. To reflect the profound changes occurring in digital integrated circuit design as it enters the deep submicrometer era, the second edition has added much new content. Using practical circuit examples based on a 0.25-micrometer CMOS process, it discusses deep submicrometer device effects, circuit optimization, interconnect modeling and optimization, signal integrity, timing analysis, clock distribution, high-performance and low-power design, design verification, chip testing, and testability design, focusing on the challenges and insights of deep submicrometer digital integrated circuit design. This book can serve as a textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students in electronic science and technology (including microelectronics and optoelectronics), electronic and information engineering, computer science and technology, and automation, as well as a reference for engineers working in this field.
