What is Clock Domain Crossing (CDC) and How Does it Work?
What is Clock Domain Crossing (CDC) and How Does it Work? In digital electrical design, the process of moving a signal or vector (multi-bit signal) from one clock domain to another clock domain is called clock domain crossing. It is the traversal of a signal in a synchronous digital circuit from one clock domain to […]
False Path in VLSI: Simplified Technology
One of the most difficult tasks for RTL designers is Identifying full-timing exceptions upfront. In intricate designs, this becomes an iterative process in which more timing exceptions are detected based on the critical path or failed path analysis using timing data. This method leaves a considerable number of timing pathways that may or may not […]
Lint in VLSI Design and its importance in RTL Design
Lint in VLSI design is a process of Static code analysis of the RTL design, to check the quality of the code using thousands of guidelines/rules, based on some good coding practice. When these guidelines are violated, lint tool raises a flag either for review or waiver by design engineers. This is done before simulation […]
What Is Synthesis In VLSI
What is synthesis in VLSI is a question that is expected to be answered by a VLSI student. Nevertheless, it is a subject that worries many. In the VLSI design process, Synthesis occurs between the RTL Design & Verification phase and the Physical Design phase. Generally, the conversion of one idea level into another is […]
Everything You Need To Know About Synthesis In VLSI
What is synthesis in VLSI? Synthesis in VLSI is the process of converting your code (program) into a circuit. In terms of logic gates, synthesis is the process of translating an abstract design into a properly implemented chip. Hardware Description Languages (HDLs) are specific programming languages that are used to explain the hardware of a […]

If yes, then you need some basic SoC knowledge that comes under Design for test course, that will enable you to take the lead on block-level tasks including floor plans, abstract view creation, hardware and software creation at the same time, […]
Career Opportunities in RTL Design | RTL Design Engineer Job
In digital circuit design, register-transfer level (RTL) is a design abstraction that models a synchronous digital circuit in terms of the flow of digital signals (data) between hardware registers, and the logical operations performed on those signals. Design at the RTL level is typical practice in modern digital design. In the current scenario, RTL designing […]
