DEC50143 CMOS INTEGRATED CIRCUIT DESIGN AND FABRICATION

CMOS INTEGRATED CIRCUIT DESIGN AND FABRICATION course exposes the students to the basic integrated circuit (IC) and CMOS IC fabrication processes which include oxidation, doping, photolithography, metallization and etching. This course also covers IC testing, reliability and failure analysis. The students will be equipped with the knowledge of inverter design and simple to complex CMOS logic gates. The students will experience developing the physical layout of integrated circuit based on specific transistor feature size and using CAD tools while adhering to specific design rules. Finally, this course also covers the topic on design methodology used in designing integrated circuits.
