Nano-Cmos Circuit and Physical Design

A practical approach to nano-CMOS circuit design and implementation The fast pace of new technology and the challenges of nano-scaling are bringing together the once-separate disciplines of circuit design, technology device physics, and physical implementation. A good understanding of the underlying physical constraints of device, interconnect, and manufacturing is crucial for designing circuit systems and devices and making sound technology decisions. Nano-CMOS Circuit and Physical Design integrates the nanometer process, device manufacturability, advanced circuit design, and related physical implementation into a single, seamless approach to advanced semiconductor technology. This comprehensive volume explores new developments in devices and processing; presents design issues, paying special attention to technology/design interactions such as signal integrity and interconnects; and addresses the impact of design for manufacturability and variability. Important topics include: Nano-CMOS process scaling issues and implications on design Subwavelength optical lithography Physics and theory of operation issues and solutions Design for manufacturability and variability Written by expert practitioners, Nano-CMOS Circuit and Physical Design is a useful resource for IC designers and professionals in the field, providing them with practical design solutions and approaches.Wong, Ban is the author of 'Nano-Cmos Circuit and Physical Design', published 2004 under ISBN 9780471466109 and ISBN 0471466107.
