Logical Effort
Book (italiano):
<p>Designers of high-speed integrated circuits face a bewildering array of choices and too often spend frustrating days tweaking gates to meet speed targets. <i>Logical Effort: Designing Fast CMOS Circuits</i> makes high speed design easier and more methodical, providing a simple and broadly applicable method for estimating the delay resulting from factors such as topology, capacitance, and gate sizes.<br><br><p>The brainchild of circuit and computer graphics pioneers Ivan Sutherland and Bob Sproull, "logical effort" will change the way you approach design challenges. This book begins by equipping you with a sound understanding of the method's essential procedures and concepts-so you can start using it immediately. Later chapters explore the theory and finer points of the method and detail its specialized applications. <br><br>* Explains the method and how to apply it in two practically focused chapters.<br>* Improves circuit design intuition by teaching simple ways to discern the consequences of topology and gate size decisions.<br>* Offers easy ways to choose the fastest circuit from among an array of potential circuit designs.<br>* Reduces the time spent on tweaking and simulations-so you can rapidly settle on a good design.<br>* Offers in-depth coverage of specialized areas of application for logical effort: skewed or unbalanced gates, other circuit families (including pseudo-NMOS and domino), wide structures such as decoders, and irregularly forking circuits.<br>* Presents a complete derivation of the method-so you see how and why it works.
