Microelectronics

This course describes electronic and microelectronic technologies and design techniques used to implement CPS technologies. The first part of course introduces basics of electronics as well as layout design. The second part describes the design of simple CMOS circuits. Basic cells libraries will be introduced. Finally, aspects related to low-power design will be given. Evolution of microelectronic technologies for the next 15 years will be presented.
