SiliWiz will help you get a basic understanding of how semiconductors work and are manufactured at a fundamental level. It’s a free and open source tool that you can play with in your browser.

Aims

• Draw your own logic gate and understand how that gate would be manufactured in a foundry.
• Learn how the gate is built out of the fundamental circuit elements used in chip design
• Understand how the drawings are used to manufacture the chip
• Be aware of some of SiliWiz’s limitations and simplifications

Lessons

We have a set of free lessons that guide you through from drawing and simulating resistors all the way up to a CMOS inverter.
