Floorplanning, Placement and Delay Optimization using PERL May 2017
Conducted a comparative study of Automated & Manual approach towards EDI systems to study design flows for different ckts
Coded in VHDL and synthesized the test ckts to arrive at schematics and layouts, ran automated design flow to get PDA values
Wrote PERL script and synthesized test ckts to get schematics & layouts, created manual FP & Placement to get 23% better PDA Low Power Sequential Circuit May 2017
Was exposed to System Verilog and UVM technologies to run testbenches to study functionalities and timing analysis (STA)
Altered codes, ran different test cases to study variations in timing and skews to isolate False paths and ways to overcome it 6X6 Booth Multiplier March 2017
Implemented a booth multiplier which generates output with 60% more speed. Produced the logic for ENC, MUX & Logic Shifters
The adder circuits were developed using the circuit of 24 transistor mirror adder with inversion property to reduce area & delay
For the above designs, structured the schematics and layouts in Cadence and optimized it to extract the least PDA. Calibration of Accelerometer December 2016
The objective was to control the accelerometer to obtain its values 25% before excitation and 75% after excitation
Integrated Altera DE0 Nano (inbuilt accelerometer) and Arduino Uno with Visual Studio (also Matlab) to output values graphically 4-Bit ALU April 2016
The goal was to design an ALU to perform logic operations as A, A’, A&B, A B and Arithmetic operations as A++, A--, A+B, A-B
Designed the schematics and layouts in Synopsys for all basic gates (2 & 3 input), DFF, 1-bit & 4-bit adder; using these, schematics and layouts for 4-bit ALU were designed to realize the objective. They were optimized for high speed and to yield the least PDA 16 Point FFT I - April 2016, II - December 2016
I - Designed the structure to feed 10-bit input from an 8-bit sine wave generator, designed FFT block to perform computations, wrote logic for maximum bin detector and displayed output in 10 bits using LCD control on a Xilinx Vertex6 Board using VHDL
II - Used Cadence encounter tool to generate RTL circuits and Layouts for the FFT code and optimized it to get the best PDA LabVIEW GUI Based Air Cushion Vehicle – Hovercraft May 2015
