Four Bit ALU Presented By: Project Manager: Arturo Coronado Digital Circuit Design: Rodger Stamness Clocking:Rodger Stamness I/O:Juan Tello
Objective Familiarization with the full custom IC design methodology. Develop good test and debugging skills. Learn to work on a team Learn documentation procedures Have fun!!!!!!
Design Flow
Philips’s 74L181
Specifications Functionality: Logic and Arithmetic implementation of Philips 74L181 Frequency: 25MHz Power: 750 mW Area: 1800 X 1800
Chip Input & Output Circuits Design quality is a critical factor -Reliability -Signal Integrity -Interchip Communication speed ESD -Most prevalent causes for chip failures: -Manufacturing and Field Operation
Schimtt Trigger
Super Buffer
Padframe Floor plan
Functions
Cell-Base implementation A.O.I each function to get circuits. Each circuit is turned into a cell. Each cell builds up the ALU one cell at time; thus Bottom-Up design. Approximately 1/3 of the Design
Transistor Level Design
Cell Z1
Cell-Base implementation
Layout Cellular Design
Final ALU Test Bench
Waveform
Project Update Completed: -15/16 Functional Logic Blocks -DFF -Superbuffer -Schmitt Trigger To be Completed -Final Floor Plan and Verification Block -Full Layout Assembly and Test May 15, 2002
