Room: B205


Course Id: 3801

Departments and Numbers: ELE 208

Area: ST

Title: Integrated Circuits: Practice and Principles

Description: This course examines what is inside a microchip, how it works, and how it is made. Topics include semiconductor material structures and properties, pn junction, solar cells, metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) field-effect transistors (MOSFET's), bipolar transistors, and their circuit applications such as digital gates and analog amplifiers, as well as microfabrication technology for semiconductor devices and integrated circuits, such as photolithography, etching, evaporation, and other thin film processing. The course has a hands-on integrated circuit microfabrication lab to fabricate diodes, MOSFET's and circuits by students themselves.

Prerequisites: PHY 104. Pass/Fail not available to EE majors. Successful completion of ELE208 is a prerequisite for admission to senior independent work in the silicon device fabrication laboratory. PHY104 is a Pre- or Co-requisite. Elementary knowledge of circuits is required.

Professors: Conrad L. Silvestre, Stephen Y. Chou
