Modern VLSI design System On Chip Design By Wolf Wayne

Modern VSLI Design provides a comprehensive overview of the design of VSLI systems, from the physical design of circuits through system architecture. Because VSLI system designers face a variety of challenges that include high performance, interconnect delays, low power, low cost, and fast design turnaround time, successful designers must understand the entire design process. The Third Edition also provides a much more thorough discussion of hardware description languages, with introduction to both Verilog and VHDL. For that reason, this book presents the entire VSLI design process in a single volume. Features NEW?Fully updated to reflect the latest advances in VLSI technology, circuits, and systems. NEW?Detailed coverage of interconnect?Includes coverage of copper interconnect. NEW?Low power design?From circuits through architecture in greater detail. VLSI design process?Includes layout, circuits, logic, floorplanning, and architectures. Testing at all levels of abstraction. VHDL and Verilog are introduced. Contents Digital Systems and VLSI. Transistors and Layout. Logic Gates. Combinational Logic Networks. Sequential Machines. Subsystem Design. Floorplanning. Architecture Design. Chip Design. CAD Systems and Algorithms.
