Circuit design (3cr)

Objective

Upon completion of the course, students will define main application areas and classification of programmable logic devices. Students will be able to develop and design using standard hardware description language, VHDL or Verilog. Additionally students will be able to explain process technologies of integrated circuits as well as verify the various phases involved in the production process of semiconductors.
