A printing issue has been identified in some hardcover copies of Preparing for Integrated Circuit (IC) Design Technical Interviews, in which certain text labels are missing from several figures. The Kindle edition is not affected.
For readers using an affected hardcover copy:
Page 205, Figure Q49a (a) and (b)
Some text labels are missing. For (a), the left metal line should be labeled “A,” and the right metal line should be labeled “D.” The coupling capacitance between them should be labeled “Cc.”, and the distance between them should be labeled “d”.
For (b), the three metal lines, from left to right, should be labeled “A,” “S,” and “D,” respectively. The coupling capacitance between “A” and “S” should be labeled “Cs,” and the coupling capacitance between “S” and “D” should be labeled “Cc.”
