Fundamentals of Smart Systems

7. Objectives, learning outcomes and obtained knowledge The scope of the subject is to get the students acquainted with the development of the packaged intelligent devices operating environment, the design software, the modern simulation tools. Deals with the design, testing, simulation steps and gives practical knowledge on their industrial applications. Introduce the theoretical background of the simulations and physical phenomenon.
8. Synopsis
Syllabus of the lectures
1. The phenomena of circuit environment, borders of the circuit environment, the design steps and implementation issues of SiP, SoP, MCM, 3D stacked ICs devices, TSV.
2. Modern packaging solutions. Fann-ot, WLP, intermediate enclosures with buried silicon layers (EMIBB). Relationship of IC design and enclosure from the design perspective.
3. Investigation of parasitic effects of packaging on the basis of Radio Frequency, thermal and other physical influences: IBIS model, Delphi model, 2R model
4. Development of circuit environment influenced by thermal effects. Active and passive cooling methods, build-up and characterization of microscale cooling devices.
5. Thermal analysis of equipments working in harsh environment (rack drawers, IoT devices in harsh environment, etc.)
6. Thermal transient testing methodology, multi-domain characterization of LED devices, characterization of thermal interface materials (TIM)
7. Introduction of a whole process development flow: the basic steps of the development, test methods, management issues. Reliability investigations, the effects of the ambient to the operation of the circuit.
8. Design flow of electrical equipment from the specification to the realization. Top-down and bottom-up methodology applied in the development flow of the circuit environment (PCW, connections, enclosures, etc.)
9. Specification and documentation issues of the circuit environment.
10. Introduction to signal integrity: plane capacitance, losses, delays, skin effect and proximity effect, wave impedance and passive devices in real parasitic elements.
11. Reflections, terminations of transmission lines: under and overdriven lines, series and parallel R, RC terminations, Thevenin termination, junction
12. Case study: pre-layout signal integrity simulation
13. Cross-talk, differential and common mode signals and impedances, signal propagation
14. Thermal management with industrial CAD tools (Mentor Graphics© FloTHERM)

Syllabus of the laboratory practises:
1. Getting acquainted to a PCW design environment and its build-up
2. Schematic capture
3. The usage and the settings of constraint editor system
4. Design of the layout
5. Thermal simulation
6. pre- and post-layout signal integrity simulations
7. Thermal analysis of packages (Mentor Graphics© FloTHERM® PACK).

9. Method of instruction 2 hours/week lectures and 1 hour/week (computer) laboratory practices including demonstration with practical examples and case studies.
10. Assessment

a.         During the term: one mid-term test in the 8th week of the semester

Requirement for granting the signature: >= 2 (satisfactory).

The signature is valid for the next semester, too.

b.         In the exam period:

Way of examination: written and oral

c.         Exam before the examination period:

Possible if the midterm grade >= 4


11. Recaps

One mid-term test.

If a student fails to turn up at mid-term test, it can be repeated during the term.

Only one laboratory practice can be repeated during the repeat period.

12. Consultations By appointment with the instructors.
