Objective: To be a part of an organization where my acquired skills help in company’s growth
and in building up a strong career in my field of interest by acquiring knowledge through
challenges.
Experience: (2 Year 8 Months) on compiler/custom memories, Pulse width modulator, and
clock spine for Microprocessor.
Nov 2013 – August 2015 (1 year 10 months) -AMD
August2015 –Till Now (10 months) -SYNOPSYS
Project (current): Compiler memories which are building block for microprocessor. I have
worked on different technologies such as 14LPP, 16FFP, 20LPM and 28HPC for leading
foundries.
Key Roles:
Design analysis of different architectures to finalize the best fit in order to meet the
design targets.
For a novel architecture, development of Placement files that is used for initial functional
and circuit checks also for final GDS generation, Timing, Power and Leakage
characterization.
Design changes to meet timing margins, leakage, power correlation and noise reduction.
Root Cause and corrective Action analysis for keeping the timing numbers close to
estimated Front End numbers by taking care in layout as well as design.
Debugging and fixing the trend issues, development of schematics and scripts.
Spot Recognition award from AMD, for the effort in release of macros using IPCR.
Key Roles:
Experience with circuit techniques like power gating, clock gating, Characterization of
Critical paths, race conditions, STA and .lib generation
Knowledge of EM, IR drop, SNM, Cell current, Standby current.
Creation of Verilog Front-end Views including behavioral, power, ATPG, ESPSHELL
and LEC
Noise, EMIR, Totem flows, Statistical tolerance analysis (Monte-Carlo)
Skills acquired:
EDA tools like schematic editors, circuit simulators, scripting languages, waveform viewers,
internal tools, flow for Circuit and Memory Characterization
Ready to take responsibility and go the extra mile to accomplish tasks on time, learn and grow

2. PROJECTS
Performance analysis of Multi-layer Graphene nanoribbon interconnects
Shrinking in technology also moving to FINFETs also reduction in chip area current density in
interconnects is increased drastically which is causing Electromigration (signalEM and powerEM) and
IR effects. In lower technologies because of lower W/H ratio conductivity becomes less, in order to
overcome all these effects in Microprocessor traditional Aluminum and Cu Interconnects are going
obsolete. For the next generation processors urgently require Interconnects that are able to carry large
current density. The solution lies with Graphene derivatives. Graphene Nanoribbons being one of them
can support large current density at high frequencies. My project is Cross Talk analysis in MLGNR
interconnects and Modeling of delay with respect to process variation and temperature variation.
Elective Courses in M.tech: Digital VLSI design, Analog VLSI circuit Design.
