Details

For the Digital Electronic Circuits course (ECE 115C) and accompanying honors seminar (ECE 189) at UCLA, I built a 4-bit absolute absolute value threshold detector in Cadence. In a group of 3, I designed, simulated, and laid out an integrated circuit that detects when a 4-bit 2's complement number exceeds a threshold value.
