Hi
Last 14hrs to get all my online VSD-VLSI courses for $5/$9 or Rs.360/Rs.700 each based on your location
Sharing Tips again
Tips on order in which you need to learn VLSI and become a CHAMPION (especially for students/freshers):
If I would had been you, I would had started with Physical Design course where I understand the entire flow first, then would have moved to CTS-1 and CTS-2 to look into details of how the clock is been built.Then, as you all know how crosstalk impacts functioning at lower nodes, I would gone for Signal Integrity course to understand impacts of scaling and fix them. Once I do that, I would want to know how to analyze performance of my design and I would have gone for STA-1, STA-2 and Timing ECO webinar courses, respectively
All of above needs to be implemented using a CAD tool and needs to be done faster, for which I would have written TCL or perl scripts. So for that, I would start to learn TCL-Part1 and TCL-Part2 courses, at very beginning or in middle
Now once my fundamentals are cleared and if I want to learn RTL and synthesis, from specifications to layout with a example design, I will go in below order (Only after I finish all above courses):
- RISC-V ISA course Part 1a and Part 1b will teach the best way to define specs for a complex system like microprocessor
- Then I will go for RISC-V Pipeline RTL design
- Next would go for RISC-V SoC Design which involves SoC planning and integration
- Finally I would go for RISC-V physical design and Layout
All VLSI courses using FPGAs and Skywater 130nm PDKs done by VSD-HDP Interns are below
