Hi

If you're serious about building a career in VLSI, RISC-V, or Semiconductor Packaging, this could change your trajectory.

VLSI System Design (VSD) has been at the forefront of semiconductor education, and we're now making it even more accessible. Below are real GitHub lab reports - not just academic examples, but projects that helped learners land jobs, switch careers, and enter the semiconductor industry.

And the best part? These are completely free to access, with or without certification.

Explore the foundational labs:

Physical Design
Real-world RTL-to-GDSII flow using open-source tools.
GitHub: DIGITAL-VLSI-SOC-DESIGN-AND-PLANNING

RISC-V Architecture - MYTH Program
Build your own RISC-V core from scratch.
GitHub: RISCV_MYTH

Semiconductor Packaging
Explore thermal, mechanical, and electrical aspects of chip packaging.
GitHub: Semiconductor-Packaging

RTL Design using SKY130
Synthesis and design of digital blocks using real foundry PDKs.
GitHub: RTL_Design_and_Synthesis_Workshop_Using_SKY130

TCL Scripting for EDA Automation
Master the scripting language used in all major VLSI toolchains.
GitHub: TCL-Workshop

FPGA with VSDSquadron Mini Board
Hands-on implementation using Lattice ICE40UP5K-based FPGA board.
GitHub: vsd_sqaudron_mini_fpga

Whether you're learning through free content or paid certifications from VSD's offerings (See full catalog), one principle remains unchanged: Labs are non-negotiable.

These repositories represent real tools, real flows, and real success stories. If you follow them step-by-step, your learning will go to the next level.

Start with one. Complete it fully. Then move to the next.

Mastery doesn’t come from watching. It comes from doing.

Let the labs guide you.
