CMOS VLSI Design 4e: A circuits and systems perspective

A great book to learn VLSI design

I bought this book after finishing Rabaey's Digital Integrated Circuit(2nd) and have learned a lot of new knowledge closely related to industry. Wow, my personal experience is if you are new and interested in digital circuit, then you'd better read three books: 1 "DDPP" digital design, principle and practice (4th edition) This book is good for logic level design 2 Rabaey's Digital Integrated Circuit(2nd) This book is good textbook for VLSI Course 3 CMOS VLSI Design: A Circuits and Systems Perspective (4th Edition) This book contains information that is extremely useful for industry.

Not only does this book contain basic introductory information to digital circuits and VLSI design, it also has been updated with the latest research on important and interesting research topics in digital circuit and VLSI design. It cites many papers published within the past years. Great as a reference, a refresher for experts, or for undergraduates.

If you are looking at this book, chances are you do not have a choice in the matter of buying it - it is a mandatory book for your VLSI class. Just have two thoughts for you that should make the decision easier: 1- It is one of the better written engineering textbooks. It will help and it won't be too painful to go through. 2- Amazon probably has it cheaper than you'll find it elsewhere so just buy it.

It is a very excellent textbook that I think would benefit experienced engineers that are transitioning to a VLSI position than students who are taking a course in VLSI design. The upside is that the book does have a great reference section that will lead you to a more in-depth treatment of the topics covered in the book.

Credit must go where credit is due. This book is very well written with great explanations and fantastic examples. I would highly, no very highly recommended this to anyone doing integrated circuits.

I received the book a week ago, but realized that this is not authorized to be sold outside the Indian Subcontinent. It is an adapted version of the original book, and the adaptation is very illogically written compared to the original book. I am returning this book.

I've enjoyed browsing the PDF version of this textbook, so I bought the physical copy. I'm satisfied with the condition of the book.

Great VLSI book

This coupled with Rabaey's book should serve you well to tackle any advanced concepts in digital integrated circuit designs.

Book arrived earlier than expected, but it's the Indian version which is way cheaper (1025 rupees...) It looks new, but it didn't came with any plastic cover Some damaged corners

I decided to go for used book this time, was little worry about quality. But to my surprise it came out well and looks like new.

was useful for my vlsi design course in university
