FPGA Bases VLSI Design and Implementation

Course Overview
Very-large-scale integration (VLSI) is the process of creating an integrated circuit (IC) by combining
thousands of transistors into a single chip. VLSI began in the 1970s when complex semiconductor and
communication technologies were being developed. The microprocessor is a VLSI device. Before the
introduction of VLSI technology most ICs had a limited set of functions they could perform. An
electronic circuit might consist of a CPU, ROM, RAM and other glue logic. VLSI lets IC designers add all
of these into one chip. The first semiconductor chips held two transistors each. Subsequent advances
added more transistors, and as a consequence, more individual functions or systems were integrated
over time. The first integrated circuits held only a few devices, perhaps as many as ten diodes,
transistors, resistors and capacitors, making it possible to fabricate one or more logic gates on a single
device. At one time, there was an effort to name and calibrate various levels of large-scale integration
above VLSI. Terms like ultra-large-scale integration (ULSI) were used. But the huge number of gates
and transistors available on common devices has rendered such fine distinctions moot. Terms
suggesting greater than VLSI levels of integration are no longer in widespread use.
