ASIC Physical Design: A Practical Guide to ASIC Design Implementation

By James Oey and Pradeep Buddharaju

ASIC Physical Design is for anyone who would like to learn VLSI physical design as practiced in the industry. It is an essential introduction for senior undergraduates, graduates or for anyone starting work in the field of VLSI physical design. It covers all aspects of physical design, with related topics such as logic synthesis (from a physical design viewpoint), IP integration and design for manufacturing. It treats the physical design of very large scale integrated circuits in deep-submicron processes in a gradual and systematic manner. There are separate chapters dedicated to all the different tasks associated with ASIC physical design. In each chapter, real world examples show how decisions need to be made depending on the type of chips as well as the primary goals of the design methodology. It discusses the current capabilities of the available commercial EDA tools wherever applicable.
