The extensively revised 3rd edition of CMOS VLSI Design details modern techniques for the design of complex and high performance CMOS Systems-on-Chip. The authors draw upon extensive industry and classroom experience to explain modern practices of chip design. The introductory chapter covers transistor operation, CMOS gate design, fabrication, and layout at a level accessible to anyone with an elementary knowledge of digital electornics. Later chapters beuild up an in-depth discussion of the design of complex, high performance, low power CMOS Systems-on-Chip.

5.0 out of 5 stars
The best book on CMOS VLSI Design,
This review is from: CMOS VLSI Design: A Circuits and Systems Perspective (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
This is a weird world: there are so many CMOS circuit experts in the whole world, whereas there are so few CMOS circuit books to plot what in their heads when they play with CMOS devices! This book is the reason. I think it is the true bible for CMOS design. By the way, the authors are really generous, they provide the most valuable three chapters online for free download! When I downloaded and read these three chapters, I ended up with having a brand-new one on my shelf.

This review is from: CMOS VLSI Design: A Circuits and Systems Perspective (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
Looking to build a small collection of books in the area of issues related to the design of modern CMOS circuitry, I came across this book. A PhD candidate friend of mine recommended this book as "the CMOS designer's bible." I was not at all disappointed. Unlike many other books in this area, this is not merely a collection of disparate and hard-to-understand journal articles, but rather a real college textbook written from the ground up. This 3rd edition update to the original brings in lots of new examples and material related to nanometer CMOS design issues.I've since purchased several more books in this field, but I still find this book to be more comprehensive and comprehensible than any others. On the other hand, I'll admit that it doesn't go as deep as say, an IEEE journal or conference paper. So if you're looking to become expert in the latest happenings in some very specific area, stick to the IEEE papers. But if you're looking for a comprehensive reference book and introduction to CMOS design, I doubt you'll do better than this book.

Excellent coverage of the foundations of CMOS technology - from a system perspective,
This review is from: CMOS VLSI Design: A Circuits and Systems Perspective (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
While CMOS is the working horse of the electronics industry, there are very few good comprehensive (and readable) books on the subject. This is especially so if your university education focused mainly on software. A solid understanding of electronics is necessary to understand literature on CMOS design. Especially if you want to understand the complexities of designing for power-consumption optimization, speed, space and bill of material costs - and the tradeoffs involved in toggling between these four considerations.Back in 2004, while I was a postgraduate student, I struggled with a book on the subject by Rabaey, Chandrakasan and Nikolic, "Digital Integrated Circuits - A Design Perspective, 2nd edition". I guess it was not easy simply because I was new to the discipline. However, I can only wish that back then, I had had such a great and so much more readable book like CMOS VLSI Design! I warmly recommend this book.
