Classes
CS 384V: Introduction to VLSI Design (Spring 2001)
Students used Cadence software in a series of class projects in which they designed
individual standard cells, created mask designs with layout tools, then
linked cells into subunits. The class ultimately built a group project with their library
of standard cells.
Optimization Issues in VLSI CAD (Spring 2004)
Students use Cadence software for simulation and place-and-route for
class research projects.
