This course mainly teaches the analysis and design of digital ICs from the transistor and circuit level. Beginning with a retrospection on basic IC devices, this course introduces the CMOS inverter, the analysis and design of combinatorial and sequential logic circuits, the arithmetic logic units, the interconnect wire models and its parasitic effect, with a focus on CMOS ICs. It also tells about commonly used design methodology and process of digital ICs, focusing on the analysis and design optimization in aspects of circuit structure, area, speed and power for various circuit types of basic digital IC units.
