Laboratory Exercises

An integral part of the lecture course is 8 one-hour laboratory exercises. The lab exercises are a mandatory part of the course, and approval of these exercises is required to enter the exam. The exercises will be carried out in teams of two students, and you will find the teams on the DTU CampusNet. Present at the exercises will be teaching assistant Georgios Plakaris, who may assist you in specific problems you may encounter during your exercise.

Each exercise includes

The purpose of the laboratory exercises is provide the student with the skills necessary to design and verify CMOS cells, subsystems, and complete systems, from the layout level to the behavioral description level. The background material for the exercises consists mainly of
