Features: Integrated Circuit (IC) layout design is a very new field. Although mask design has a history of over 30 years, it has only recently become a profession. People who want to pursue this profession, including university graduates and those hoping to switch careers, need to understand some very complex principles. Similarly, experienced layout engineers also find that the complexity of modern IC processes requires them to further understand these fundamental basics. Layout design is not an isolated design step; it is related to a series of technologies. This book introduces basic semiconductor theory and then elaborates on the development of fundamental devices in modern semiconductor technology, providing readers with methods and techniques for IC layout design. A prominent feature of this book is that it explains why certain design approaches are used while introducing layout design, enabling readers to understand not only what but also why certain designs are created. The focus of the book's content is on the fundamentals of layout design, making it an excellent starting point for newcomers to the field. For experienced designers, it serves as a review and reflection of design experience.
