The scripts include DFT and UPF support* Developed Synopsys Prime Time scripts which I used for static timing analysis. The scripts were used to perform pre and post route timing analysis* Worked with the design group to generate the SDC and UPF design contraints* Developed Synopsys Formality scripts which I used for formal checking. The scripts were used to perform pre and post route analysis* Developed Cadence Encounter Digital Implementation (EDI) scripts which I used for place and route including floorplanning, placement, optimization, clock tree synthesis and routing. I used TCL to setup the EDI environment and floorplan the designs* Developed Synopsys Silicon Smart scripts which I used for block level characterization. The liberty files were used for the backend design flow* Developed Open Verification Methodology (OVM) scripts for functional verification using random vectors* Developed SKILL procedures for automating the Cadence Virtuoso design environment*Provided general CAD support including software installation and setup for the vendor tools Show less
