This is your official information source to Application Specific Integrated Circuit Design, offered by the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. In this course we will primarily be concerned with designing digital circuits using VHDL and FPGAs. The key features of semi-custom and full-custom ASIC devices will also be reviewed. Students will gain hands-on experience with contemporary programmable logic devices (FPGAs). Industry standard CAD tools by Xilinx will be used to design, simulate and implement digital circuits. The course belongs to the Computer Architecture and Digital Design concentration area for graduate students majoring in computer engineering.The course is also included in the Electronics and Power Systems concentration area for graduate students majoring in electrical engineering. Your instructor this Semester is Dr. Janos Grantner, a Professor in the Department.
