Teaching Comprehensive Real-World VLSI Design to Undergraduate Students
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents a case study on the challenges of teaching state-of-the-art design to undergraduate students with projects that emulate those encountered in any given company developing commercial semiconductor technology and products. The issues encountered are exposed specifically through the discussion of the development and teaching of a comprehensive first course in Very Large Scale Integrated Circuit (VLSI) design at The College of New Jersey (TCNJ).
