The Art of Hardware Architecture wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww Mohit Arora Design Methods and Techniques for Digital Circuits Mohit Arora Freescale Semiconductor Faridabad India mohit.arora@ This book is dedicated to my wife Pooja and my daughter Prisha. wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww Preface I started my Industry career in year 2000 in the field of Chip Design. My work involved lot of research that gave me opportunity to write technical papers, partici- pate in various conferences and share practical experiences. During this journey I got lot of positive feedback on my publications. Readers have often asked me forc- ing me to think if I should write a book compiling all the practical experiences. The book’s aim is to highlight all the complex issues, tasks and skills that must be mas- tered by an IP designer to design an optimized and robust digital circuit to solve a problem. The techniques and methodologies prescribed in the book, if properly employed, can significantly reduce the time it takes to convert initial ideas and con- cepts into right-first-time silicon. The book is intended for a wide audience. Though it may be used in an under- graduate or graduate course, book is mainly intended for those in semiconductor industries who are directly involved with chip design a
