Computer Hardware and Integrated Circuit Design
The integrated circuit (IC) is the centerpiece of modern computing and has become the subject of international competition. This guided course teaches students how to build an 8-bit computer, utilizing the power of ICs. Parallel to the tasks, students are introduced to the physics of semiconductors and transistors. This course ends with a supply chain perspective of IC, allowing students to appreciate the geopolitics of technology.
