CMOS Digital Integrated Circuits: A First Course is an
undergraduate textbook for electrical and computer engineering students
that is dedicated solely to digital CMOS integrated circuits. It
covers the same topics as graduate level textbooks, but in an introductory
style specifically crafted (and course tested) for undergraduates.
Students will not need a prerequisite in analog electronics, allowing
instructors flexibility in course scheduling. While there are several
textbooks which include both analog and digital electronics and are used
for both courses, their digital modules continue to focus attention on
outdated bipolar and nMOS logic. CMOS Digital Integrated Circuits:
A First Course teaches the fundamentals of modern CMOS technology by
focusing on central themes and avoiding overwhelming details. Extensive
examples, self-exercises, and end-of-chapter problems assist in teaching
the current practices of industry and subjects taught by graduate courses
in microelectronics. Computer engineering curriculums can remove the
analog electronics prerequisite altogether when adopting this book.The
flow of material begins with a review of previous courses in circuit and
logic theory relevant to digital electronics. Elementary semiconductor
physics then gives students an intuitive feel for how diodes and
transistors work, followed by chapters on transistors and how they are
combined to make simple logic gates. The book then shows how transistor
logic circuits are designed from the logical Boolean equations that form
the initial launch of a design, with designing for lower power consumption
as a priority subject. This book is also unique in that it presents
timing, the most difficult of the computer designer's tasks, and an issue
that is avoided by all other textbooks. The remaining chapters describe
memory, metal thermal and capacitive properties, FPGAs, layout, and then
concludes with a chapter on how circuits are made in a chip factory.
