ASIC Design Implementation Process

This book is an easy-to-read guide, providing a complete framework for the ASIC design process. Based on the author's extensive experience leading ASIC design teams, this book emphasizes short, clear descriptions, supplemented by references to authoritative manuscripts. This approach presents the essence of the ASIC design implementation process for those involved in a specific part of the process, while providing knowledge of the entire process.

Provides succinct introductions to key topics, with references as needed for further technical depth Covers the entire ASIC design process, giving context for those focused on a particular aspect of the process Describes a complete framework through which an ASIC design implementation process can be executed efficiently
