Course Overview:
This one‑day course offers a focused dive into the principles and practices of Very Large‑Scale Integration (VLSI) design, covering system‑on‑chip architectures, logic design, timing, physical implementation and verification flows. Participants will explore why VLSI is critical in modern electronics—from mobile devices through to automotive and industrial applications—and how to efficiently design and optimize complex integrated circuits for performance, power and area.
Learning Objectives:
By the end of this course, you will:
- Understand the end to end VLSI design flow: specification → RTL design → synthesis → place & route → verification
- Gain insight into logic design considerations, timing closure and physical constraints in advanced process nodes
- Explore power, performance and area trade offs in VLSI and how to make informed architecture/design decisions
- Learn key verification strategies and techniques to ensure functional correctness and design robustness
- Examine real world design challenges in system on‐chip (SoC) integration, IP reuse, and design for testability
- Discover best practices for interfacing with fabrication, layout aware design, and leveraging physical implementation feedback
- Acquire actionable tools and methodologies that can be applied immediately to your next VLSI design or project
