    VLSI refers to the fields of electrical and computer engineering dealing with the analysis and design of very dense electronic integrated circuits. The process of constructing a VLSI chip involves a design team first creating a system specification and abstract high-level model, then using a hardware description language for digital design before logic synthesis, circuit design, and physical design lead to manufacturing the finished VLSI chip. VLSI chips can be full-custom, application-specific integrated circuits, or semi-custom, and Moore's Law predicts the number of transistors on a chip will double every 18 months.

    VLSI?
    VLSI Very Large Scale Integration
    Refers to the many fields of electrical and computer engineering that deal with the analysis and design of very dense electronic integrated circuits

    Steps to construction in VLSI


    Start with a design team Then move to a design hierarchy
    Digital design is usually based on some type of Hardware Description Language (HDL)

    Design Hierarchy
    System Specifications
    Abstract high-level model

    Logic Synthesis
    Circuit Design

    Physical Design
    Manufacturing Finished VLSI Chip

    VLSI Chip Types


    Full-custom
    Every circuit is designed for the project

    Application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC)


    Allow designers to create ICs for a particular application

    Semi-custom
    Between full-custom and ASIC

    Moores Law
    Gordon Moore (Intel)
    The number of transistors on a chip would double about every 18 months
