Technical Training on Full Custom Design using Cadence, KPR Institute Engineering and Technology, Autonomous Engineering Institution, Coimbatore, India

Full-custom design is a methodology for designing integrated circuits by specifying the layout of each individual transistor and the interconnections between them. Alternatives to full-custom design include various forms of semi-custom design, such as the repetition of small transistor subcircuits, one such methodology is the use of standard cell libraries (standard cell libraries are themselves designed using full-custom design techniques). The entire technical training content are Power estimation, Delay estimation, Floor planning and Area estimation of various combinational circuits in full custom mode. Also discussed on fault detection and diagnosis of sequential circuits.
