Silicon VLSI Technology: Fundamentals, Practice, and Modeling (Prentice Hall Electronics and Vlsi Series) - Tapa dura

Unique in approach, this book provides an integrated view of silicon technology—with an emphasis on modern computer simulation. It describes not only the manufacturing practice associated with the technologies used in silicon chip fabrication, but also the underlying scientific basis for those technologies.

FEATURES/BENEFITS

• Extensive use of modern computer simulation methods and examples—Integrated into each chapter.
