This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles and practices of integrated circuit (IC) and chip design using industry-standard EDA (Electronic Design Automation), CAD (Computer-Aided Design), and CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) tools. It covers the full chip development lifecycle, from specification and schematic design to layout, verification, and tape-out preparation. The course emphasizes both digital and analog design methodologies, and includes hands-on lab sessions with commercial EDA tools such as Cadence, Synopsys, or Mentor Graphics.
