ANNOUNCEMENTS: 

This section will be used for important course announcements.   I will also make use of the e-mail distribution list maintained by Columbia University Courseworks.

This course is an introduction to the design of integrated circuits in leading-edge CMOS technology.  Full-custom design techniques as applied to digital integrated circuits are the emphasis.  The course culminates in a ``mini-design" project, a simple 8-bit microcontroller core, implemented in a TSMC 0.25um process. Extensive use of the CAD tools in Columbia's environment will be required.
