Physical Design TraineeRv-Vlsi Design Center Oct 2015 - Sep 2016Bengaluru Area, India1. Physical Design and Implementation of Block Level Design (Jan-May 2016) Tools:- ICC, PrimeTimeSI, CalibreProject Details:This Project was targeted for Physical Design Flow (GLN to GDSII), where I did Floor planning, Power planning, Placement, Clock Tree Synthesis, Routing, Physical verification, DFM, Signal integrity and Post layout STA.Challenges:- • Fixing Antenna violation with Critical manual routing. • Fixing transition violations using buffer, cell up sizing & cloning. • Identifying the reasons for timing closure at each step of Physical Design flow. • Fixing DRC such as Overlap, Min width, area, spacing by manually after detailed routing. • Fixing LVS stamping error. • Fixing floating pins by manual placement of cells. • Placement of macros based on data flow diagram to obtain maximum contiguous core area. • Creation of placement and routing blockages. • Efficient clock tree generation.2. Analysis of Different Timing Paths Tools:- PrimeTime SIProject Details:- The aim of the project was to perform Synthesis and analyze timing reports for different designs which consists of all kinds of timing paths for flip flop and latch based designs.Challenges:- Interpreting and visualize the circuit from the timing report, realization of incomplete SDC,Impact of sizing cell for timing report, effect of OCV and removal of common path reconvergence pessimism. Understanding of delays caused by various cells and nets.3. P&R Flow AutomationTools: ICCDuration: Mar – Apr 2016 Project Details:- The aim of this project was to establish P&R flow automation. In this project we Developed scripts for automatic fixing of Antenna violations, Hold violations and Transition violations.Challenges:- Determination of nets to fix, writing scripts with efficient run time, fixing without affecting other timing. -
