Working from the fundamentals of transistor-level design and building up to system-level considerations, Digital Integrated Circuit Design shows students with minimal background in electronics how to design state-of-the-art high performance digital integrated circuits. Ideal as an upper-level undergraduate text, it can also be used in first-year graduate courses and as a reference for practicing engineers. Digital Integrated Circuit Design: * Presents transistor-level details first, building up to system considerations * Emphasizes CMOS technology but also includes in-depth explanations of designing in bipolar, BiCMOS, and GaAs technologies * Features modern, well-designed examples and problems * Covers important system-level considerations such as timing, pipelining, clock distribution, and system building blocks in detail * Discusses key elements of semiconductor physics, integrated circuit processing, transistor-level design, logic-level design, system-level design, testing, and more * Provides physical and intuitive explanations throughout * Emphasizes conceptual thinking and design methodology over detailed circuit analysis techniques
