Overview
- Provides an exhaustive reference on digital circuits, covering the entire design flow from all levels of abstraction, from the physical level to system level
- Assumes only knowledge of basic mathematics and physics, making the content accessible to readers with diverse backgrounds
- Tells a complete story of digital circuit design, starting from a simple physics account in section 1.1 and ending with a discussion of commercial reliability in section 14.8, while each chapter is also self-contained, allowing it to be read in isolation
- Does not separate practical advice from theoretical foundation, rather treats the two as equally important and intrinsically related
- Includes extensive examples that are discussed not just as illustrative cases, but as a fundamental way to establish concepts

About this book
This book provides a comprehensive reference for everything that has to do with digital circuits. The author focuses equally on all levels of abstraction. He tells a bottom-up story from the physics level to the finished product level. The aim is to provide a full account of the experience of designing, fabricating, understanding, and testing a microchip. The content is structured to be very accessible and self-contained, allowing readers with diverse backgrounds to read as much or as little of the book as needed. Beyond a basic foundation of mathematics and physics, the book makes no assumptions about prior knowledge. This allows someone new to the field to read the book from the beginning. It also means that someone using the book as a reference will be able to answer their questions without referring to any external sources.
