Book Description:
This book was written to arm engineers qualified and knowledgeable in the area of VLSI circuits with the essential knowledge they need to get into this exciting field and to help those already in it achieve a higher level of proficiency. Few people truly understand how a large chip is developed, but an understanding of the whole process is necessary to appreciate the importance of each part of it and to understand the process from concept to silicon. It will teach readers how to become better engineers through a practical approach of diagnosing and attacking real-world problems.
Summary: happy reading
Rating: 5
'VLSI Circuit Design Methodology Demystified', is aptly named for its
rich content covering a wide span of issues confronting today's
nanometer scale ICs.
This book will prove to be very useful for managers who are seeking to
understand challenges in ASIC world and for engineers wanting to enhance their skills in innovative methodologies.
It is very handy for anyone working in physical design. It is very easy for an engineer to become too focused in one or two specific areas like place and route or timing and not understand the big picture. It's a very good reference book for entry level engineers as well as job seekers.
The Q&A style of this book makes the understanding of this difficult topic very lucid.
Summary: A great book for everyone who is involved or interested in chip business
Rating: 5
This is a great book for everyone who is currently involved or interested in chip design/implementation/verification/manufacture business. The book primarily focuses on concepts, not mathematic formulas. Concepts are the foundation. Without correct concepts in one's knowledge base, it is difficult to truly understand what is really going on behind the tools you are dealing with everyday, it is difficult to advance in any technical field (especially in this ultra-complicated chip design business).
The intention of this book is "broad" not necessarily "deep". The goal is to introduce all the key concepts needed to build up the foundation. To get involved deeper in any of the topics, the reader is equipped with basic knowledge so that he/she can consult more specialized resources (conference paper, journal paper, special-topic book, tool manual, datasheet, etc.)
The unique features of this book: a) covering very board areas of IC design. It is a good reference source when someone needs an overview of this field. b) organizing in the question and answer fashion, needed information can be located quickly.
Audience:
a. IC integration engineer with several years' experience needs to see bigger picture, needs to expend his knowledge base, for further advance.
b. IC circuit designer (transistor-level circuit designer, analog component designer and etc.) who needs to know what is going on in SoC integration area.
c. IC testing engineer, product engineer, CAD support engineer who want to know more about chip development process.
d. Process development researcher/engineer who wants to know what is happening in design.
e. Project/business/marketing manager who needs the overview of this field, needs to know what is going on within design team (so that they can understand why "over-budget, behind-schedule" always happens ).
f. University/college students (graduate student level) who want to pursuit career in the field of IC design. (The courses offered by universities usually focus on the basic knowledge and techniques needed for circuit design. There is hardly anything for large chip implementation.)
g. Anyone who is interesting in knowing what is going on in the field of IC design.
A book worth your money! |
