VLSI Design Fundamentals and Fabrication

Module 1 – VLSI Design Methodologies

VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) integrates thousands to millions of transistors on a single chip, drastically reducing size, cost, and power consumption.

Moore’s Law states the number of transistors in a dense IC doubles approximately every 18 months. The Second Law states the cost of a semiconductor fabrication plant doubles every 4 years.

Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC)

An ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) is a custom IC designed
