✦ Synopsis

Physical Design Essentials explains the basic steps required in the physical design of Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). The subject matter presentation follows the industry-common ASIC physical design flow.

Topics covered include:

• Basic standard cell design, transistor-sizing, and layout styles

• Linear, non-linear, and polynomial characterization

• Physical design constraints and floor planning styles

• Algorithms used for placement

• Clock tree synthesis

• Algorithms used for global and detailed routing

• Parasitic extraction

• Functional timing and physical methods of verification

• Testing Techniques

Physical Design Essentials is written for professional design engineers who need to be conversant with all aspects of ASIC design implementation: device processes, library development, place-and-route algorithms, verification, and testing.
