Department of Computer Engineering, Prince of Songkla University by Wannarat Suntiamorntut Integrated circuit (IC) era Moore’s law : number of transistors per chip doubles every year
Department of Computer Engineering, Prince of Songkla University by Wannarat Suntiamorntut IC technology scaling
Department of Computer Engineering, Prince of Songkla University by Wannarat Suntiamorntut Metal-oxide-semiconductor MOS = Metal Oxide Semiconductor In the past : Metal gate over Oxide insulation Present-day : polycrystalline silicon that we call “Poly” We use metal (aluminum) for interconnection wires on the surface of the chip.
Department of Computer Engineering, Prince of Songkla University by Wannarat Suntiamorntut VLSI design process 1. Specification : Defined function, estimate cost Adder 2. Architecture : Large block Partition must be added in good design process if the circuit has complexity.
