best book for a new digital circuit designer

I strongly recommend this book after I read the first half one.It contains lots of stuffs you need to understand if you are a circuit designer, or device engineer designing test structures.The format in this book is very comfortible to readers, and you can also make notes on each page (lots of space for readers)!

Great book for beginners. I would recommend reading the first half of the book and then reading "Skew Tolerant Circuit Design" and then "Logical Effort." These books will give a circuit designer the basic tools to circuit design.

Great book for Beginners!!!!

I own many engineering books and most of the authors of these books have a hard time getting the point across. However, "Principles of CMOS VLSI Design" by Weste is an excellent book: very comprehensive, very detailed, and very clear in his explanations of the various topics covered in this book. As an undergraduate, I recommend this book to all engineering students. Also, I am currently interning at this engineering company and most of the engineers that work there own this book.

A great book on CMOS VLSI digital design!

If you are interested in CMOS VLSI design, this is the first book you need to read carefully. The first several chapters give you lot of detailed and fundamental knowledge about CMOS, and the second part of this book contains everything you need in system design.

Best choice for Beginner wanting to be a IC designer

I have read the 1th ed. of this book and reading the 2ed ed. now. This books is so easyly to be understood, even by a foreigner. This book emphasis the principles learned in college. And introduce more trends about the CMOS technology. After readed the books, let me become a experienced IC designer quickly with layout,circut,subsystem, especially the system concept that general not learned in college.This books is the best choice for IC design beginner just comming from college.
