Learning Outcomes
Competences
Students have a comprehensive overview of the use, development and production of integrated circuits. They understand the functionality of MOSFETs in nanometer technology and can explain the production of CMOS semiconductors. They can calculate the costs of integrated circuits and know about the qualification requirements of microelectronic systems.
Skills Knowledge
  • Explain the life cycle of an integrated circuit from idea to planning, development, qualification and mass production (K3)
  • Calculation of an IC based on given boundary conditions such as wafer prices, yield, chip size and other parameters (K4)
  • Explanation of the behavior of scaled MOSFETs in the various work areas (K3)
  • Creation of IC layouts that meet the design rules and are suitable for mass production (K3)
  • History of integrated circuits (IC), repetition of how the MOSFET works
  • IC manufacturing technology
  • Scaling & economics of IC
  • IC layout
  • Design Methodology
  • IC packaging
  • ESD and latchup
  • Production test & debugging
