  VLSI COURSE

Course Details and concepts are as follows:

RTL Coding and Simulation (FRONT END)

A real time project is chosen and will be designed using VHDL or 

Verilog and will also be simulated for verifying the functionality of theRTL.

BACKEND Tool Usage

o VLSI Tool usage flow from Synthesis to GDSII will be explained through

industry

o Synthesis and DFT through RTL Compiler. FloorPlanning, Placement,

Clock Tree Synthesis and Routing through soc Encounter.

Final Stage of project work 

o

Students, after they are comfortable with the above indicated flow and willcontinue their work in the core assigned stream using the above mentioned

industry standard EDA tools.
