1. EEE 348E INTRODUCTION TO IC DESIGN P.M Dr Othman Sidek (Director of CEDEC) Mr. Arjuna Marzuki (room 2.15, ext: 6021) email: A_Marzuki@ieee.org Instructor/Tutor Ruhaifi email: airr_p@yahoo.com

2. Learning Outcomes  Students will be able to design and simulate logic circuits at transistor level using schematic entry as well as netlists format.  Students will be able to produce the layout design of a circuit based on the design rules specified.  Students will be able to analyze CMOS transistor characteristics.  Students will be able present their mini project individually in a viva session.

7. EXPECTATIONS  Attend classes and labs.  Find out what you’ve missed if you’re absent.  Come earlier than the lecturer/tutors..  Ask lecturer/tutor whenever have any problems related with the subject.

8. WHAT IS IC? ICs on PCB IC Package Inside IC Wafer

9. = = IC Layout IC Schematic

10. Why VLSI? Integration improves the design Lower parasitics = higher speed Lower power consumption Physically smaller Integration reduces manufacturing cost - (almost) no manual assembly
