The scaling trend in CMOS technology has brought a range of challenges for the digital circuit designers. These challenges become increasingly important when high performance and low power circuits are of interest. This course is aimed to answer these demands by offering an insight on advanced topics in nano-scale VLSI device, circuit, and system design. The challenges of technology scaling are covered and state of the art technologies and solutions at different levels of abstraction are discussed. A class project is an integral part of this graduate course. Graduate VLSI course is the prerequisite of this course. |

Fall 89 (2010) |
Intel Pentium IV |
The realization of various electronics circuits is discussed in this course. Namely, the differential amplifiers, bias circuits, active loads, current mirrors and current sources, operational amplifiers, feedback, power amplifiers, DC regulators as well as frequency response of the amplifiers are within the wide range of the topics that are covered in the course. The course considers both BJT and CMOS devices for realization of various circuits. There is usually a course project along with a few homework assignments as mandatory part of this course. |

Graduate Courses |
Undergraduate Courses |
The principles of analog circuit design including frequency response, OpAmp circuits, Diode, BJT and MOS operations and simple circuits based on these devices are discussed in this course. The course includes weekly Labs where the students experiment different parts of the course in the lab and report the results to the lab TAs. This is a first year course, some 55 student attend my class for this course. |

A large scale IC on a ruler
That is how small ones big world could be! |
This is a first year graduate course where we discuss the principles of VLSI circuits. Fundamental circuit level and system level trade-offs in the digital IC design is discussed in this course. The course includes the introduction of transistor sizing methods, basic CMOS gates, T-Gates, basic sequential circuits, design using Verilog HDL and the basics of digital design flow. The student will experiment the flow of digital IC design in circuit and system level using various CAD tools through a term project. |
Very Large Scale Integrated Circuits (VLSI) |
