GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE

Integrated Circuits and Microelectronics is an advanced course where the students will learn the current technologies used in integrated circuits, specially in digital systems. Some concepts will be studied in detail: manufacturing, packaging, modern solutions for improving the performance and reliability of this kind of circuits, a design methodology and the necessary tools to obtain competitive digital circuits. Some of these tools are hardware description languages, synthesis tools, design for testability, etc. that the students will learn in a practical and interactive way.


OBJECTIVES: KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS


  • Learn the main processes in the manufacturing of integrated circuits.
  • Study the design techniques at layout level for both analog and digital integrated circuits.
  • Study design methodologies based on hardware description languages.
  • Learn techniques for verification and test of integrated circuits.


TEACHING MATERIAL

The student will find available the following material:

  • Theory: class slides with the theoretical content of the course.
  • Exercises: solved problems and proposed problems for different units.
  • Practices: practices manual with a work proposal so that the student can understand the necessary design tools.
  • Proposed exams.


 PRACTICAL ASSIGMENTS AND ASSESSMENT ACTIVITIES

  • Laboratory exercises
  • Exercises
  • Final exam
