Publication Date: 2004-03-01
Features: The main features of this book include: (1) Unifying the perspective of circuits and systems in digital integrated circuit design. After systematically introducing the knowledge of semiconductor devices and the basic inverter under deep submicron conditions, the author gradually introduces these fundamental concepts into more complex modules, such as gates, registers, controllers, adders, multipliers, and memories. Under deep submicron design conditions, designers not only need to consider the entire system design but also remain vigilant about issues at the circuit level—such as those caused by devices and interconnects. (2) This book is a reference that focuses on digital integrated circuit design problems under deep submicron conditions and provides a simple transistor model for deep submicron environments. Additionally, it offers detailed discussions on the new challenges faced by designers in deep submicron conditions, such as interconnect issues, signal integrity problems, clock distribution issues, power consumption issues, and more. (3) The content of the book is closely aligned with the core issues of contemporary digital integrated circuit design and introduces readers to new design techniques and the current status and trends in engineering development through numerous design examples.
