This course provides basic knowledge in integrated circuits analysis and design. It will include:
1) basic verification procedures using circuit simulators
2) layout of integrated circuits
3) post-layout verification
Note that this course is only available in a face-to-face classes.
Due to the limitation of workstations, the number of student will be limited to 8. The students will be selected based on students skill and motivation.
Students who wish to take this course should contact the lecturer in advance (see the contact address bellow).
This course may not be available to exchange students due to the term of use of software used in the class.
The course might be cancelled if the attending students is less than 3
