The whole world is at the dawn of the greatest revolution of the mankind nanotechnology. The influence of nanotechnology is on all branches of Engineering and science. VLSI Design (a branch of nanotechnology) is experiencing tremendous growth due to advances in technology and scaling in size of devices. As designers have to pack more devices in a VLSI chip, the process of generating layouts is also becoming increasingly complex. CAD tools have to deliver effective solutions for vastly scaled up problems and in the presence of very stringent constraints. A designer must understand the problems associated with the design as well as the workings of CAD tools to arrive at early design closure. This workshop is designed for introducing the tool to understand the MOS characteristics with user interface. It has different modules for transistor level layouts, mixed signal simulation and memory simulator.
The technological evolution of VLSI design was having effective gate length of 70 nm in 2001 and the vision is down to 45 nm is truly low leakage current technology and is revolutionizing the electronic gadget market faster than its previous generation. This workshop is intended for many persons. Anyone who is interested in VLSI design and CAD should benefit from this class. Those people who wish to pursue research and / or career in the field of VLSI CAD must take this course. VLSI engineers who wish to become better designers by clearly understanding the complexities of design, tools, and problems will benefit from this course.
