The primary goal of this course is to introduce basic electronic principles needed by the integrated circuit designer and to discuss engineering tradeoffs and practical considerations that are necessary for the student to make the transition from the classroom to industry as an integrated circuit designer. After the introduction of these principles, some basic circuitsm either digital or analog are presented together with one real advanced VLSI CMOS process. The evaluation is composed by several assignment works of simulation and layout design of basic circuits in the beginning of the semester and after mid-term the students will make a real IC design that will be implemented in a Multi-Project Chip.
