Description
This course provides an overview of VLSI systems and their life cycle, guiding students from basic circuit-building concepts to the intricate world of VLSI design. This course aims to teach VLSI systems in a holistic way using preexisting knowledge and a nonlinear approach that builds a connected knowledge base across different functions. Students will Revisit building circuits on the breadboard using 74 series ICsFormalize the circuit building process on the breadboardTravel into the 74 series IC to see the nanoworld from the IC pin to the transistorUse the breadboard circuit to understand synthesis, placement, routing, clocking, timing, and verification processes in the nanoworldWill grasp the systems thinking approach essential for VLSI design through real-world examples such as calculators and mobile phonesUnderstand the concept of use cases, workload, accelerators, hardware-software partitionUnderstand VLSI life cycle from both top-down and bottom-up perspectivesExplore different system realizations and reliabilityGet insights into various engineering roles within the VLSI industry and the skills required and understand the career opportunities availableBy the end of the course, students will have a clear understanding of how VLSI systems are created, developed, and verified, along with a deeper knowledge of the engineering disciplines involved.
