The aim of the course is an introduction to the steps of system level design and to the design approach of state of the art integrated circuits. The students are getting familiar with up to date CAD systems operation and maintenance.
Week 1 – Getting know the hardware and software environment. Top-down approach of digital circuits design
Week 2 – Introduction to Design Flow through a concrete example (design of the ALU of a CPU)
Week 3 – General structure of EDA systems, licensing issues, synthesis systems
Week 4-6 – Behavioral description of a hardware unit using Hardware description language, logical simulation
Week 7-8 – Synthesis of a digital circuit using the EDA tools
Week 9 – Technological optimization of the chosen circuit, runtime analysis. Temperature analysis, Monte Carlo analysis.
Week 10 – Identification of critical routes
Week 11 – Design for testability – approaches and possible implementations
Week 12-13 – Layout design (floorplan, placing, global routing, power rounting, detailed routing)
Week 14 – Final testing of the implemented ASIC, design documentation generation
Laboratory practice with computer workstations
The course ends with intermediate grading assumed that the five small projects during the semester were completed with at least satisfactory grade.
A small project can be repeated in the repeat week.
