PROJECT DETAILS
Title: Pre-Adder input mode, Constant mode and Coefficient mode Support for ArriaV/CycloneV/ StratixV
Company: Synopsys (I) Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Title: M18x19 signed multiplier support for ArriaV/CycloneV
Company: Synopsys (I) Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Title: Pre-Subtractor Support for StratixV/ArriaV/CycloneV
Company: Synopsys (I) Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Title: Dynamic Add-Sub & Negate Support for StratixV/ArriaV/CycloneV
Company: Synopsys (I) Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Timing driven Register unpacking for DSPs for StratixV/ArriaV/
Title: Synplify Pro Feature Evaluation – DSP &RAM resource management for STRATIX V
Company: Synopsys (I) Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Description: This project is to evaluate the autobudgeting & resource management feature of DSPs & RAMs/ROMs for the STRATIX5 FPGA using attribute syn_allowed_resources with/without compile points on top module or submodules. The autobudgeting will be done in the pre mapping stage of synthesis and the same budget will be honored by Mapper
Title: Synplify Pro Feature Evaluation – rw_check UI switch handling for RAM inference
Company: Synopsys (I) Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Description: This project is to evaluate the new rw_check UI switch in synplify Pro. When rw_check is enabled, the synthesis tool inserts bypass logic around the RAM to prevent a simulation mismatch between the RTL and post-synthesis simulations. If user knows that design has RAM that read and write to the same address simultaneously, rw_check switch can be enabled to insert bypass logic. When switch is disabled, the synthesis tool does not insert bypass logic around the RAM.
Title: Synplify Pro Feature Evaluation – Memory initialization enhancement for Altera Intel Hex file
Company: Synopsys (I) Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Description: This project is to evaluate memory initialization hex file generated by Synplify Pro. For Altera devices RAM/ROM/Seqshift initialization hex file generated by Synplify Pro was incorrect for memory depth more than 64k. The values in hex file from 1 to 65536 locations are correct, but after 65536 locations Synplify Pro writes the value continuously (i.e. without header) till the maximum depth of the memory which is not correct. Due to incorrect hex file during clearbox call for RAM / ROM / Seqshift depth more than 64k “parameter mem_init<n>, “n” is from 0 to memory depth” are initialized to zero after 64k locations in vqm/vm/vhm file because of this vm/vo/vhm/vho simulation are failing.
Title: Synplify Pro Feature Evaluation –Loadable Accumulator Support in DSP for STRATIXV (ongoing)
Company: Synopsys (I) Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Description: This project is to evaluate Synplify Pro mapper to support accumulator inference with/without dynamic load in DSP for STRATIX V.
Title: Synplify Pro Feature Evaluation – Pre-Adder Support in DSP for STRATIXV (ongoing)
Company: Synopsys (I) Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Description: This project is to evaluate Synplify Pro mapper to support the pre-adder feature that includes coefficient mode, input mode, square mode and Constant mode in DSP for STRATIX V.
Title: Design and Development of Integrated FPGA Based Digital Beamforming Transceiver System for AURA (Proposed)
Company: Aeronautical Development Agency, Bangalore.
Description: Digital beamforming is a powerful technique to enhance antenna performance. DBF system is a potential candidate for the Adaptive Interference Cancellation in the aerospace applications. The hardware design and implementation of a DBFTS is based on the modeling of the DBF transmitter and receiver system. The digital architecture is developed such that the transmitter and receiver modules of DBFTS can function independent of each other. The computation of beamforming weighting functions can either be common to transmitter and receiver or it can be computed independently. On a need basis, the DBFTS can be switched between the DBF and DNS modes. Development and Verilog modeling of functional Block diagram of Tx and Rx modules of DBFTS along with the desired specifications of the individual blocks/sub blocks. Synthesize the individual blocks and sub blocks of Tx and Rx modules
Title: Implementation of Activity Detector on FPGA
Company: Kavveri Telecom Products Ltd, Bangalore.
Description: Peak detection and band code generation logic was designed as per specification for amplitude measurement. Designed Peak detection and band code generation logic were modeled using HDL and was verified using test bench. Implemented the designed peak detection and band code generation logic on Virtex –II Pro FPGA with ADC interfaces and programmable connections according to the specifications
