TITLE: TEXT ON CMOS DIGITAL IC DESIGN BY KANG AND LEBLEBICI
"CMOS Digital Integrated Circuits: Analysis and Design" Third Ed.
(ISBN 007-246053-9) by Steve Kang (University of California,
Santa Cruz) and Yusuf Leblebici (Worcester Polytechnic
Institute), starts with CMOS processing, and then covers MOS
Transition Models, basic CMOS gates, dynamic circuits, memory
circuits, BiCMOS circuits, I/O circuits, VLSI design meth-
odologies, design for manufacturability and design for test-
ability. This text provides rigorous treatment of basic design
concepts with detailed examples. It addresses both design
concepts and computer aided analysis - for most of the circuit
examples, SPICE simulation results are provided for illustration.
Distinctions of this text include:
* Systematic development of CMOS circuit principles in Chapters
1-8 provide an in-depth understanding of CMOS design.
* From chapter 4 onwards, SPICE simulation results are provided
to assist in the computer aided analysis of CMOS circuits.
* In-depth analysis of high speed dynamic circuits is given in
Chapter 9.
* Rigorous treatment of memory circuits in Chapter 10, where
state of the art illustrations of memory technology are used
concerning various memory circuits such as ROM, SRAM and DRAM.
* Systematic design and analysis of I/O circuits in Chapter 11.
The Third Edition includes:
* An entirely re-written chapter on Memory Circuits-- Ch. 10
* Extensive treatment of state-of-the art memory technologies
including DRAM arrays and Flash memories.
* Strong emphasis on sub-micron CMOS technolgoies in every
chapter!
* Extensive coverage of CMOS fabrication technologies and mask-
level layout design.
To order, access: McGraw-Hill.
