CAD for Integrated Circuits Design

Course Holder: Prof. Dr. Eng. Claudius DAN
Laboratory holder: Prof. Dr. Eng. Claudius DAN

Attendants are introduced to the software tools that are used to help IC designers master the complexity of today's "System On Chip, SOC" projects. Course classes use a systematic method to present different problems that current design tools must solve. Topics include "Systematic IC Design Process", "Design Environments", "Representation", "Analog and Digital Simulation", "Interconnection Modeling", "Power Consumption Estimation and Simulation". Lab activities train the students in Cadence design environment usage.
