Integrated me Design

There are several excellent textbooks available that treat Integrated Circuit (IC) Design at a level appropriate to final year students, to practising designers or to postgraduates. Some of these advanced texts have an 'engineering' bias, and give a detailed treatment of the technology underlying integrated circuits. Others have a 'computer' science systems' leaning, concentrate on methods of IC design, and do not discuss the underlying technology beyond the barest fundamentals. These textbooks are all expensive, and their use is only justified in an advanced course, where they form one of the major (or even the major) text for the course.

This book provides readers with a single-source reference to current sensing integrated circuit design. It is written in handbook style, including systematic guidelines and implementation examples. The authors focus on the implementation of wide-bandwidth current sensing on a single microchip, toward usage in applications such as sensing, control and optimization of the energy flow in growth areas like industrial electronics, renewable energies, smart grids, electromobility and the Internet of Things.

Introduction to VLSI Digital Integrated Circuit Design in NMOS and CMOS

This book explains the application of recent advances in computational intelligence – algorithms, design methodologies, and synthesis techniques – to the design of integrated circuits and systems. It highlights new biasing and sizing approaches and optimization techniques and their application to the design of high-performance digital, VLSI, radio-frequency, and mixed-signal circuits and systems.

This book describes the synthesis of logic functions using memories. It is useful to design field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) that contain both small-scale memories, called look-up tables (LUTs), and medium-scale memories, called embedded memories. This is a valuable reference for both FPGA system designers and CAD tool developers, concerned with logic synthesis for FPGAs. Anyone using logic gates to design logic circuits, you can benefit from the methods described in this book.

This book describes methodologies in the design of VLSI devices, circuits and their applications at nanoscale levels. The book begins with the discussion on the dominant role of power dissipation in highly scaled devices.
