Integrated Circuit Manufacturability
de Gyvez, Jose Pineda (Texas A&M University) / Pradhan, Dhiraj (Stanford University)
This book addresses the study of process and design variables to determine the ease and feasibility of fabrication -- or manufacturability -- of contemporary VLSI systems and circuits. The reader will be introduced to the key aspects in today's design practices: yield management, defect and fault modeling, testing, and fault tolerant architectures. These four sections present the reader with practical issues normally applied in industry and us...
