The text is organized around first introducing the global view of digital integrated circuit design, VLSI and design automation, and then sequentially developing the topics from the materials and devices level, up through the circuits and then system level. This mirrors the structural hierarchy of the chip design field itself. While building a solid foundation and reference for the chip design, it integrates the discussion with hands-on examples of the design automation software, included in the book, to illustrate not only the layout and simulation concepts, but also how an industry designer would put them into practice. Both theory and application are effectively integrated into a cohesive treatment of the subject and art of chip design.

As the author mentioned that the book is a basic introduction to submicron CMOS designs,you will find the book contents organized into short chapters with a level of details that one can study and understand within a short period.The software that comes with the book is a nice tool to start learning CMOS VLSI layout and simulation.It would be best to practice as you read and understand each section or topic.You can learn much from hands on by doing your own version of layouts or circuits for simulation.Each figure of a layout shown in the book is usually large enough to clearly see the details.Thus, you can try to recreate your own layout as seen from the figure.
