Design Verification Intern
Developed verification solution for MIPI UniPro v1.41 and v1.61 specific to l1p5 and l2 layer. Modified the BFM
specific to l1p5 and l2 layer along with test cases and debugging of issues.
Mathematics Instructor for Senior High School Students (Aug 2012 – May 2013)
Taught entry level & advanced level engineering mathematics to senior high school students.
Air India, Mumbai (India) (Aug 2012 – Dec 2012)
Engineering Intern
Worked with aircraft engineers on installation and removal of all electrical components, instrument components
and radio equipment. And also software debugging of the In -Flight Entertainment Sys.
Projects Simulator for a Compressible Multiphase turbulence application (Parallel Computer Architecture-Spring15)
Developed a simulator for the above exascale system application using task dependency and data flow a nalysis.
Power Optimized All Digital Phase Locked Loop (Advanced VLSI-Spring15): Front-end to back-end design and
verification of an all digital phase locked loop. Wrote the RTL and test bench using VHDL, schematic level
validation and layout was done using Cadence Spectre and Virtuoso.
From Planar to Multi-gate transistors: the case for FinFets (VLSI Device Design-Spring15)
Wrote a research paper focusing on the reasons for the switch from planar to non -planar structures in FET’s.
1-D Time-Domain Convolution (Reconfigurable Computing-Fall14): Built the SRAM interface (both read and
write) needed for the project. VHDL was used to implement the same and built on an FPGA.
4x1 SRAM Memory Design (VLSI Circuits and Technology-Fall14): Designed and tested a 4x1 SRAM memory
which included the basic 6T memory cell, sense amplifier and a pre-charge circuit.
Fault-Tolerant Wireless Data Acquisition Sys for BMI Applications (Fault Tolerant Comp Arch-Fall14): Worked
on researching (finding out advantages and disadvantages) and implementing different types of information
redundancy techniques needed for the project. The implementation was done using MATLAB and VHDL
Parametric Cache Simulator (Computer Architecture-Spring14): Designed a cache simulator which had a
memory hierarchy of L1 data cache, victim cache and main memory using C.
Real-Time Priority based Pre-Threaded Web Server (Real Time OS-Spring14): Developed a web server that
interacts with web clients, where the server consisted of main threads(higher pri ority) and worker threads.
Home Automation and Security on RX-63N and Sakura (Embedded Systems-Spring14): Built a security system
which could detect motion, sense temperature and smoke on the Sakura board using C and notify the base
station i.e the RX-63N.
Automated Baggage Handling System (Senior year project): Built the controller for sending information to the
host computer and decoding information from RFID Reader module. C was used to program the controller.
