As author R. Jacob “Jake” Baker points out in the preface to this comprehensive volume, CMOS technology has dominated the fabrication of ICs for 25 years, and is likely to dominate it for another 25 ...

Editor’s note: I am pleased to bring you an important technical blog by Fernando Lavalle, a Ph.D. student at Texas A&M University and his colleague, Suraj Prakash, who have been working and studying ...

Creating a sensor-based IoT edge device is challenging, due to the multiple design domains involved. But, creating an edge device that combines the electronics using the traditional CMOS IC flow and a ...

As we all know, the back-end design of layout implementation known as integrated circuit (IC) layout — is simplistically divided into ASIC-style flow and full-custom flow. This article will try to ...

In the first of a multi-part series on how to design a custom chip for under $1,000, our Analog Editor gets you started with a Magnificent 7 list of textbooks. TinyTapeout offers a course that ...

MEMS-based component suppliers want to rapidly ramp their designs into high-volume production. This demand is driving MEMS suppliers to focus on ways to more efficiently re-use established process ...
