VLSI Circuit Design Methodology Demystified:

A Conceptual Taxonomy (Google eBook)
Front Cover
1 Review
John Wiley & Sons, Dec 4, 2007 - Technology & Engineering - 200 pages
This book was written to arm engineers qualified and knowledgeable in the area of VLSI circuits with the essential knowledge they need to get into this exciting field and to help those already in it achieve a higher level of proficiency. Few people truly understand how a large chip is developed, but an understanding of the whole process is necessary to appreciate the importance of each part of it and to understand the process from concept to silicon. It will teach readers how to become better engineers through a practical approach of diagnosing and attacking real-world problems.

a great book.
I learned a lots from it.
After I read this book, I have more confidence when I talk to my boss and discuss with my co-workers.it definitely worths the money
