Modern Vlsi Design  (English, Paperback, Wayne Wolf)

Modern VLSI Design, Fourth Edition, offers up-to-the-minute guidance for the entire VLSI design process—from architecture and logic design through layout and packaging. The book introduces powerful new IP-based design techniques at all three levels: gates, subsystems, and architecture. It presents deeper coverage of logic design fundamentals, clocking and timing, and much more.

Coverage includes :

• Extensive new coverage of networks-on-chips
• New coverage of using FPGA fabrics to improve design flexibility
• New material on image sensors, busses, Rent’s Rule, pipelining, and more
• Updated VLSI technology parameters reflecting the latest advances
• Revised descriptions of HDLs and other VLSI design tools
• Advanced techniques for overcoming bottlenecks and reducing crosstalk
• Low-power design techniques for enhancing reliability and extending battery life
• Testing solutions for every level of abstraction, from gates to architecture
• Revamped end-of-chapter problems that fully reflect today’s VLSI design challenges
