Welcome to Masterclass on Low Power Design using Sky130 PDKs by none other than Srikanth Jadcherla, Founder, Professor and Chairman, Global Technology University

Prof. Jadcherla received an Intel Achievement Award for his work on low power and is the author of 13 patents. Prof. Jadcherla holds a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from IIT Madras in India, and a master's degree in computer science and engineering from the University of California, Santa Barbara

This 5-day high intensity “Low Power Design” workshop, in association with VSD Corp. Pvt. Ltd. provides a comprehensive view of low power design from system level to device level. For the first time outside corporate settings, this course covers Voltage Aware Booleans in detail with labs. Low Power Design for the IOT era is another new module.  This course is equivalent to a 3-credit university equivalent at the graduate level.  This is a front-end course and needs to be followed up with a back-end implantation course for VLSI students.

Principles covered in this course are:

• Low Power Design vs. Power Management
• The basic rules of Power Management
• Balancing Density-Delivery-Leakage-Lifetime
• Connecting software level activity to device level issues
• Voltage Aware Boolean Equations for CMOS
• Island ordering and how to shutdown/wake-up complex systems
• Why mobile systems explode (thermal runaway)
• Rules for verifying low power designs
• Impact of IOT on low power design
