Course Notes

Most of the class material can be found in the text book (Digital Integrated Circuits, 1st edition).
Some of the topics will be taught from a draft of the 2nd edition. The draft chapters used are posted below.

• Chapter 1:  Introduction (pdf)
• Chapter 2: The Manufacturing Process (pdf)
  • Colorplate1, Colorplate2, Colorplate3
• Design Methodology Insert A: IC Layout (pdf)
• Chapter 3: The MOS transistor (pdf)
• Chapter 4: The Wire (pdf)
• Chapter 5: The CMOS inverter (pdf)
• Chapter 6: Combinational Logic Gates in CMOS (pdf) (early draft - will be updated)
• Chapter 7: Sequential Logic Circuits (pdf) 

Additional texts will be posted over the course of the semester.

These animated graphics can help you to better understand transmission lines and their behavior.

• Simulation of simple transmission line
• Simulation of simple transmission line with varying resistive load

Most of the slides used in the class are taken directly from the text book and can be found on
the book's web-page. The slides used in a particular lecture are annotated on the class schedule.
