Professional Experience
Intern, Intel Technology India Pvt Ltd. 2013-Till Date
Project:
Low Gate Count, Power Efficient and Fully Synthesizable Tiny Crypto Engine for Wearable SoC.
• A novel method to generate random numbers for encryption process of the data in crypto engine. The
solution is a low gate count, soft IP, fully synthesizable, easily portable to any process node/Emulation
platform.
• Different sets of entropy sources generated by Ring oscillator are injected in the Digital Random Number
Generator making it difficult to guess for an attacker and also resulting in an increase in the overall
Entropy of the system. It also provides very power efficient solution to the random number generation
problem.
• Light weight and ultra-low power serial AES hardware accelerators were used instead of large gate
counts. This design helped in reducing the area and power in SoC..
Advance SOC Integration
Better write about what u did for soc integration using collage than explaining what are capabilities of collage
• The idea is to integrate SOC platform to enhance design productivity based on IP reuse and IP-XACT
standard. Platform Integrator including CoreKit development to improve the efficiency and reliability in
platform integration, back end and Platform Verifier to improve verification time and work efficiency.
• In SoC Integration, the goal of Collage IP packaging is to minimize the number of ad-hoc signals
coming out of an IP by mapping ports to standard interfaces.
• Collage creates the right wrappers and punches ports through them. This enables quick changes in the
RTL hierarchy above the IP to handle back end/validation requirements and movement of IP from one
partition to another if needed.
Academic Projects
Universal Rotate Invert Bus Encoding For Low Power VLSI
• A technique for bus encoding which reduces the number of transitions on the bus and performs without
the need for extra overhead in computation and circuit. Irrespective of the bus width we needs three extra
bits to encode bus data and do not assume anything about the nature of the data on the bus.
Advanced Systems Laboratory (ASL), Ministry of Defense DRDO, Hyderabad
• A system that collects the input data in digital form with high accuracy and in short time which is then
processed by a microcomputer.
• Interconnection of a microcomputer to a data acquisition system to control a process involving several
input signals like temperature, pressure flow.
Active Filter Design Using Two OTA based Floating Inductance Simulator
• The circuit implementation is based on the use of OTA and Double output OTA (DO-OTA) as an active
element and a grounded capacitor. The resulting inductance can be electronically tuned by varying
external bias current accordingly.
• The feasibility of realization strategy is confirmed through SPICE simulations on Tanner EDA tool on
0.5μm technology.
