giving me a cutting edge advantage over my peers.
Area of Interests
VLSI & CMOS Design, Digital Logic design, ASIC / FPGA Design, RTL Design & Synthesis.
Scholastic Achievements
Achieved All India Rank (AIR)-55 with 99.02% in Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) 2009.
Secured GATE AIR - 401 in pre-final year of under graduation.

Research Project and M Tech Seminar
High Frequency (GHz) Capacitance-Voltage Measurement for Ultra-thin oxide MOS Capacitors
( M.Tech Thesis, Guided by Prof. S.P. Dattagupta)
The project work involves the proper designing of test structure for GHz capacitance measurements and
fabrication of 2.1nm Ultra-thin oxide MOS Capacitors. The device simulations are executed using
Sentaurus tools. The device is characterized using network analyzer. This methodology is effective &
accurate, especially while dealing with the devices having gate dielectric thickness below 2.2nm. This is
applicable to devices those having higher gate leakage currents.
Metal source-drain MOSFET
( M.Tech Seminar, Guided by Prof. Swaroop Ganguly)
Interpreted and summarized literature from various journals and patents on metal source -drain metal
oxide semiconductor (MOS) device which have extremely lower parasitic source/drain resistance and
better immune to latchup problems.
Course Projects & Seminar
Design of a Body-driven Low-Voltage Low-Power two-stage Miller op-amp
To design an Op-Amp with specifications of loop gain: 70db, phase margin: 60deg, with a power
constraint 2µW, 40 KHz unity gain cut-off frequency.
Design of CMOS inverter using process and device simulators
To process a CMOS inverter to meet the specifications of ITRS 2001 Roadmap at 130nm technology and
extracting the spice Level-1, Level-2 parameters from I-V,C-V characteristics.
Others: Effect of interconnect length on delay
Layout of three cascaded minimum sized inverters of TSMC 0.18um technology drawn using MAGIC.
Propagation delay of middle inverter is calculated from extracted netlist. For the 40% increment of that
delay the resultant wire length is estimated.
Seminar : Gate induced Drain Leakage(GIDL) current at high electric fields
Main mechanism and consequences of GIDL and device design considerations for minimizing the GIDL
effect.
Positions of Responsibilities
Led and as a part of 3 members representing the Electrical Department Carrom team which won Silver
