EN0168 - Design of Semiconductor Devices

Contemporary practice in the design and fabrication of discrete and solid state devices. The realization of basic analog and digital circuit functions in semiconductor silicon is a central theme in a coordinated lecture and laboratory course. Topics include microcircuit photolithography; layout and design scaling rules for integrated circuits; and techniques in semiconductor and thin film processing as they apply to large-scale integrated circuit manufacture. Prerequisite: EN 159 or permission.
