INTRODUCTION
Course program on “Introduction to Circuits” is assigned for undergraduate education on
“VLSI Design” specialization and is taught on the 5th semester (3 year’s 1 st semester).
The course duration is 85 hours, lectures volume is 34 hours, practice classes are 17 hours, and
laboratory works are 34 hours.
COURSE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
The goal of the course is to teach the future designers of microelectronic circuits and systems
the principles of work of basic electronic circuits, the designs of them, methods and the simulation
tools of analysis, as well as to promote an interest in life-long learning together with the ability to
advance professionally.
The main objectives of the course are:
The study of basic electronic circuits, their descriptions, the principles of their work, the designs
and analysis methods of them and also to gain an experience in the research of them with a EDA and
simulation tools help.
The tasks of laboratory work are to investigate of experimental electronic circuits various
descriptions and their dependences upon component parameters with a program package help, to
chouse electronic cells most significant descriptions optimization promoting components. These
laboratory works will help the students to understand the giving material better.
The goal of the course project is an implementation of learnt material on standard cells.

design includes: cell schematics development and drawing by CosmosSE; transistor level netlist
generation; Hspice simulations and circuit optimization.
METHODIC PROVISION OF THE COURSE
To study the course the necessary list of references is given below.
The course program is compiled taking into account that the following courses had been studied
beforehand:
• “Electrical Engineering”
• Physical Fundamentals of Microelectronics” or “Solid State Electronics Fundamentals”
• “IC Design Introduction”
Understanding of the course is the basis for the further specialized subjects destined by the
educational plan of “VLSI Design” specialization.
