Domain Project Details
Project Title SRAM Memory layout in 28nm Technology
Institute Name RV-VLSI Design Center, Bangalore, India
Project
Description
Project involves floor planning and layout designing of SRAM Blocks,
The Designed blocks are Sense amp, precharge & Mux, data-in and data-
out, Pre-Decoder, Final Decoder, Control block, Scan block.
Challenges
Faced
-Designing an optimized and less parasitic layout following design
Constrains make my work challenging.
-Floor planning of Control Block was challenging because of it repetitive
structure.
-Fixing pin placements in each block and then designing Layout was
challenging.
-Top level routing was challenging
Tools used
IC Studio, PYXIS Circuit and Layout Editor (Mentor Graphics), Calibre
for Physical Verification (DRC and LVS)
Project Title Analog Layout design on 180nm process
Institute Name RV-VLSI Design Center, Bangalore, India
Project
Description
Two stage operational amplifier (Op-Amp) which has differential
amplifier, bias circuit and current source.
Challenges
Faced
-Understanding of centroid, dummy poly, shielding, guard ring concepts
and applying those concepts to making floor planning was a challenging.
-Floorplanning of that many fingered transistors and achieving matching at
critical transistors through floorplanning was challenging.
-Routing for such a complex analog design was challenging.
Tools used
IC Studio, PYXIS Circuit and Layout Editor (Mentor Graphics), Calibre
for Physical Verification (DRC and LVS)
3. Project Title Design of 9T standard cells Layouts in 28nm and 90nm
Institute Name RV-VLSI Design Center, Bangalore, India
Project
Description
To deliver DRC/LVS clean layout for basic logic circuits from Transistor
level netlist and schematic.
Challenges
Faced
-Placing polys and contacts on poly pitches which restricts majority of
routing area was challenging to do.
-Routing without using poly and higher metal than metal-1 was difficult.
-Due to fix area tap placement was difficult.
Tools used
IC Studio, PYXIS Circuit and Layout Editor (Mentor Graphics), Calibre
for Physical Verification (DRC and LVS)
M.Tech Project Details
Project Title Improved LMS & RLS Adaptive Filter With Low Adaption Delay
Institute Name SV College, Tirupati, India
Project
Description
Designed an improved architecture for LMS and RLS adaptive filter which
has area, power and delay advantage then previews architectures.
Tools used Xilinx ISE 10
Challenges
Faced
-Optimizing all three main factors (Area, Power and Delay) in a Design
was a challenging.
-Using xilinx tool for simulation RTL Code was challenging because it is
complex and has many steps to run a Design.
