FUNCTIONAL VERIFICATION OF LC-3 -
Developing a Testbench and environment for the verification of LC-3 microcontroller
Developing components like agent, monitor, driver, generator and verified it with a predictor golden reference model and scoreboard FUNCTIONAL VERIFICATION OF I2CMB CONTROLLER -
Created an I2C BFM, layered testbench containing different components such as an agent, monitor, driver, sequencer etc., and a test plan for the functional verification of I2C multi-master bus controller
Ran verification test cases on System Verilog testbenches to achieve near 100% coverage
Performed simulations and debugging on Mentor Graphics Questa Sim ASIC DESIGN OF MULTI-STAGE DEEP NEURAL NETWORKS -
Worked on building a Deep neural network containing convolution layer which takes the input and kernel matrix and computes the input to a Relu function to saturate negative values to 0, which then passes through the max pooling layer
Conducted design validation through Modelsim simulations to ensure functionality
Used Synopsys’s DesignWare for synthesis, optimizing performance to achieve maximum efficiency per area 64 BIT (16x4) DUAL PORT SRAM -
Designed SRAM cell using 8T non precharge type cell for reducing the Energy-Area-Delay product, which is our performance metric
Verified clean LVS and DRC checks on Synopsys Virtuoso, and simulated on Questasim IMPLEMENTATION OF FLEXIBLE CACHE AND MEMORY HIERARCHY SIMULATOR -
Designed a simulator which implements write-back, write allocation and LRU replacement policy to compare the miss rate, AAT, performance, area and energy of different memory hierarchy configurations
Developed a cache module that can be used at any level in a memory hierarchy which supports any cache size, associativity and block size
