ECE 5273 Electronic Design Automation for VLSI Circuits 3.0 Credits
This course introduces electronic design automation (EDA) techniques for VLSI integrated circuit design. Topics include the algorithmic foundations of modern VLSI CAD tools, including Boolean algebra, graph theory, logic minimization, and satisfiability, as well as physical design automation steps such as technology mapping, floorplanning, placement, routing, and timing analysis. Emphasis is placed on practical implementation through individual and team-based programming projects.
