Overview of the book
The book, “Foundations of VLSI Design and Circuit Implementation,” provides a comprehensive exploration of the principles and applications of VLSI (Very-Large-Scale Integration) design. Authored by Mrs. S. Dhanalakshmi, Mr. Satti Harichandra Prasad, and Mr. Rakesh Yadav Kodari, the text addresses the foundations of semiconductor technology, circuit design, and system implementation, emphasizing practical insights for modern electronic systems.
The content is divided into multiple chapters that cover core topics such as MOS transistors, CMOS logic, and combinational and sequential circuit design. The book begins with an introduction to MOS transistor technology, explaining its operation, characteristics, and significance in circuit design. Following this, CMOS logic is discussed, illustrating the implementation of basic and complex gates using complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technology.
Subsequent chapters delve into combinational and sequential MOS logic circuits, emphasizing design techniques for latches, registers, and flip-flops. The book also explores advanced design methodologies for arithmetic building blocks, focusing on adders, multipliers, and memory architectures. Detailed explanations of layout design rules, including lambda-based rules for CMOS and stick diagrams, enable readers to understand the transition from schematic design to physical layout.
Resonating with modern challenges, the book examines timing issues, low-power design strategies, and signal integrity considerations, critical for designing efficient and robust VLSI systems. Practical aspects of circuit implementation strategies are highlighted, including FPGA architectures, testing methodologies, and design for manufacturability.
The authors integrate theoretical concepts with practical implementation strategies, offering valuable insights for students and professionals. With its structured approach and focus on foundational concepts, the book serves as a vital resource for anyone seeking to master the principles of VLSI design and circuit implementation.
