In the semiconductor industry, cutting basic design time of microelectronics is by far the most cost-effective measure for keeping production budgets in line. Custom-Specific Integrated Circuits thoroughly considers the various methods available to reduce the design time of a microelectronic circuit to fit a specialized requirement! This important work explores the principles of both bipolar and MOS technologies, and provides in-depth coverage of the many avenues which enable system designers to incorporate specific needs into an integrated-circuit form. Comprehensive and up-to-date, this reference compares and contrasts all the techniques of custom an semicustom design and fabrication, including programmable arrays, masterslice arrays, cell libraries, and full custom ... examines the principles of placement and routing of regular structures ... presents convenient chapter summaries for quick review of essential material ... and offers physics fundamentals for basic understanding while concentrating on practical system design. Ideal for both the practicing engineer and graduate-level engineering student, this outstanding book gives electrical, electronic, design, computer, mechanical, and control engineers, as well as electrical, electronic, and computer science engineering students, the contemporary, "hands-on" coverage needed to master Custom-Specific Integrated Circuits.
