With lab. Introduction to VLSI design and custom design methodology in MOS. Topics include: MOS devices and circuits, fabrication, structures, sub-system and system design, layout, CAD techniques, and testing.
E&C ENG 499T is Part 2 of the senior honors thesis in ECE, preceded in the fall by Part 1 (E&C ENG 499Y). Individual student research is directly contracted with the faculty chairs who supervise the work. In addition, all 499T and 499P students participate in a common thesis/project seminar that supports development of the 499T thesis research and document.
Honors Thesis expectations are high.

The course requires students to work in small design teams to solve a significant engineering problem. Students develop, design, and implement a solution to the engineering problem in conjunction with a faculty advisor. The course reinforces principles of the engineering design process and serves as a capstone for electrical and computer engineering knowledge obtained in the ECE curriculum. The consideration of the ethical and social implications of technology and the basic concepts of business are also aspects of the course.
