Centre of Excellence – VLSI Design

Centre of Excellence for VLSI design offers complete Chip Design expertise from RTL to GDSII implementations at 45nm, 90nm, 180nm technology nodes including pre and post-silicon testing & FPGA/Simulation-based prototyping. Expertise includes Front End Design and Verification; as well as Backend Design and Physical Implementation.

Objective

The key objective of Centre of Excellence (COE) – VLSI Design is to introduce the fundamental principles of VLSI circuit design, to examine the basic building blocks of large-scale digital/analog integrated circuits, and to provide hands-on design experience with professional design (EDA) platforms among students. Finally, at the end of the training program, students should able to get placement in core VLSI design based companies.
