Skills: SystemVerilog · Simvision · Genus Synthesis · Assertion Based Verification · I2C · Verilog• Performing Frontend Design & Verification, by fixing Lint & CDC, RDC errors of the components; also synthesizing & optimizing designs metrics such as area, power & performance. Finally, executing Static Timing Analysis (Setup & Hold) for the timing closure in front-end.• Transforming a Tristate-bus into a MUX-bus to drastically enhance bus bandwidth efficiency, thereby mitigating in-line delays & congestions.• Incorporating existing IP into an new data-bus on a (TSMC-N5) 5nm technology node, conducting test cases by increasing data rates & clock frequency from 640Mhz to 1.2Ghz to address potential bottlenecks using Synopsys Fusion Compiler tool.

• Implemented signal processing kernels to run on novel systolic array processor, integrating a Python-based Manager script for data flow.• Developed generalized data flows, code templates & Verilog testbenches of various kernels for behavioral & functional simulation.• Worked on timing estimation & data mapping of various kernels such as FIR, FFT, OFDM, QPSK & components of demodulation blocks based on VLIWarchitecture for high degree of pipelining & highly synchronized multiprocessing and verify using API on FPGA.
