CMOS technologies now comprise nearly 90% of all integrated circuits (ICs). This book serves as a vital introduction to CMOS ICs, building upon a previous publication, 'MOS Ics,' released in Dutch and English in the early 1990s. It covers cutting-edge material while addressing scaling challenges associated with CMOS technologies and designs beyond 0.1 mm. The text elucidates fundamental operating principles and offers deep insights into design, implementation, and applications. Unlike other resources, it delves into all relevant disciplines of deep-submicron CMOS ICs, including physics, design, technology, packaging, low-power design, and signal integrity. Based on in-house Philips courseware, it has been completed by over 1500 engineers. The book is meticulously structured, featuring hundreds of figures, photographs, and in-depth exercises, making it ideal for self-study. This second edition includes corrections and updates from the first edition, which has already been utilized in over ten in-house courses. Typographical errors have been rectified, and most chapters have been refreshed with the latest material. Additionally, trends and roadmaps have been revised to ensure the book remains relevant for at least the next five years.
