Taken typically by 1st year PhD and MS students, and co-terms and seniors.
For students interested in chip design, the following course sequence is recommended.
EE271 (Autumn)
Learn digital design fundamentals
Taken typically by 1st year PhD and MS students, and co-terms and seniors.
EE272 (Winter)
Learn the digital and analog EDA toolchain on an example project
The example project is a neural network accelerator and a phase-locked loop. During this course you also write your EE372 chip proposal.
EE372 (Spring)
Use the toolchain to tape out your own chip!
Work in teams of 2 to complete your chip tapeout by the end of Spring!
