I would like to design a digital watch
at the silicon level, ie. VLSI.  

Does anyone out there have any pointers to
current papers/books.

Of interest would be various example designs,
specifics would include the LCD drivers, the
voltage multiplier (for 1.5 v to CMOS level),
drivers for the buzzer, backlighting, etc.

The best would be an example of a calculator
watch.  The casio calculator/memo watch would
be a very good example, especially since it
has so many functions and a bitmapped LCD.
(of course they won't be giving there designs
out)

Any help is appreciated,

Don Smith
