Summary
Summary
This text is for undergraduate VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) design courses in departments of electrical and computer engineering departments. A wide range of clear and understandable material is presented, with emphasis on the relationship between circuit layout design and electrical system performance. Topics range from basic physics of devices to introductory VLSI computer systems, in both N-MOS (N-Channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor) and CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor). Many worked examples and assignments make this text appropriate for students with no prior VLSI exposure.

Choice Review
One of the most rapidly expanding areas of technology is very large scale integration (VLSI). In the relatively short time of 25 years, the field has progressed from integrated circuits (ICs) of four diodes to ICs of tens of thousands of logic gates. This book evolved from lecture notes for undergraduate electrical engineering, computer engineering, and computer science students, and is designed to be used along with an appropriate interactive software program. Fabricius has organized the book using a realistic and logical sequence: starting with a comprehensive introduction, he covers solid state physics, device processing, design rules, general function blocks, clocking problems, wire routing, programmable logic arrays, reduction techniques, gate matrices, VLSI testability, and a multitude of other topics. Each chapter contains appropriate problem assignments. Enthusiastically recommended for libraries serving undergraduate and graduate students, and working engineers interested in VLSI. -S.
