Khosrow Golshan Physical Design Essentials

Annotation

Physical Design Essentials explains the basic steps required in the physical design of Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). The subject matter presentation follows the industry-common ASIC physical design flow.Topics covered include:Basic standard cell design, transistor-sizing, and layout stylesLinear, non-linear, and polynomial characterizationPhysical design constraints and floor planning stylesAlgorithms used for placementClock tree synthesisAlgorithms used for global and detailed routingParasitic extractionFunctional timing and physical methods of verificationTesting TechniquesPhysical Design Essentials is written for professional design engineers who need to be conversant with all aspects of ASIC design implementation: device processes, library development, place-and-route algorithms, verification, and testing.
