Hi
Only 48 hours left to join the SFAL-VSD Program and work on Project 1: RISC-V SoC Implementation using Synopsys EDA Tools and SCL180 PDK! This is your chance to gain hands-on experience with industry-standard workflows, from RTL
design to tapeout.
Project 1 Highlights
🔹 Design & Verify a RISC-V SoC:
- Synthesize and simulate using Synopsys Design Compiler and VCS.
- Resolve real-world challenges (e.g., blackboxed modules like housekeeping, RAM).
- Validate with Gate-Level Simulation (GLS) and analyze power (~72.7mW), area (~883k units), and timing reports.
🔹 SCL180 PDK Integration:
- Work with Semiconductor Laboratory’s 180nm process design kits, used for actual tapeouts.
- Learn to debug post-synth mismatches and prepare for physical implementation.
🔹 Open-Source & Reproducible:
- Clone a proven RISC-V SoC repository, mirroring industry practices.
