VLSI Design and Develop Your Career

Image
  VLSI Design is a course that prepares you to become an industry-ready VLSI design engineer. It offers theoretical knowledge and practical learning in one of the most sought-after technologies in the industry today. The   VLSI Course   program is designed to meet the current needs of semiconductor industries and aims at producing VLSI designers who are ready for employment immediately after graduation. It provides a solid foundation in digital electronics, logic circuits, integrated circuit fabrication, computer-aided design tools and various VLSI designs such as memory chips, microprocessors etc., which will be helpful in developing skills required for designing complex integrated systems like high-speed processors or even microcomputers. What is VLSI? Very large-scale integration (VLSI) is the process of creating an integrated circuit (IC) by combining millions of MOS transistors onto a single chip. VLSI began in the 1970s when complex semiconductor and communication t...

Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor

  The present   VLSI electronic systems  rely on the Silicon MOS (metal oxide semiconductor) technology whose advances will soon come to saturation. Carbon nanotubes represent advancement in the materials technology with potential for providing switching devices that may be faster and smaller than the present MOS devices. Carbon nanotubes are miniature tube structures with intriguing characteristics. The tube, in the normal untwisted state, conducts electricity. When twisted, the tube acts as a semiconductor.  This transistor is considered one of the greatest inventions of the twentieth century. It has helped to bring about both the information and computing age. One reason for success is its ability to decrease in size and increase in speed. This property is summarized in Moore’s law. It states that the transistor’s size will decrease exponentially while its speed will increase exponentially. Moore’s law has allowed the technology sector to progress and remain compe...
