Synopsis

The latest techniques for designing robust, high performance integrated circuits in nanoscale technologies Focusing on a new technological paradigm, this practical guide describes the interconnect-centric design methodologies that are now the major focus of nanoscale integrated circuits (ICs). High Performance Integrated Circuit Design begins by discussing the dominant role of on-chip interconnects and provides an overview of technology scaling. The book goes on to cover data signaling, power management, synchronization, and substrate-aware design. 

Specific design constraints and methodologies unique to each type of interconnect are addressed. This comprehensive volume also explains the design of specialized circuits such as tapered buffers and repeaters for data signaling, voltage regulators for power management, and phase-locked loops for synchronization. This is an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and engineers working in the area of high performance ICs.

Between May 2009 and September 2010, he worked as a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Rochester. He also worked and conducted research at STMicroelectronics, Synopsys, and Freescale Semiconductor. Since September 2010, he has been an Assistant Professor with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Stony Brook University, New York, where he is the director of the Nanoscale Circuits and Systems (NanoCAS) Laboratory. His broad research interests include analysis, modeling, and design methodologies for nanoscale integrated circuits in both 2-D and 3-D technologies. 

Eby G. Friedman: Received the B.S. degree from Lafayette College in 1979, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of California, Irvine, in, respectively, 1981 and 1989. From 1979 to 1991, he was with Hughes Aircraft Company, rising to the position of manager of the Signal Processing Design and Test Department. He has been with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Rochester since 1991, where he is a Distinguished Professor. He is also a Visiting Professor at the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. He is the author of about 400 papers and book chapters, 11 patents, and the author or editor of 15 books in the fields of  high speed and low power CMOS design techniques, 3-D design methodologies, high speed interconnect, and the theory and application of synchronous clock and power distribution networks.
