Physical Design Course Curriculum
- RTL to GDS Flow
- Understand the complete ASIC design flow from RTL design to final chip tape-out, including the implementation stages used in modern semiconductor companies.
- Floorplanning
- Learn how to design efficient chip layouts by defining die size, macro placement, power planning, and routing resources.
- Synthesis
- Convert RTL code into optimized gate-level netlists while considering timing, area, and power constraints.
- Placement
- Master the techniques of placing standard cells on the chip to achieve optimal performance and minimal congestion.
- Clock Tree Synthesis (CTS)
- Design balanced clock networks to ensure minimal skew, low latency, and reliable clock distribution across the chip.
- Routing
- Learn global and detailed routing techniques to connect all components while meeting design rules and timing requirements.
Sign-off and Verification Modules
- Sign-off Checks
- Understand the final verification stages required before chip manufacturing.
- LEC (Logical Equivalence Check)
- Verify that the synthesized netlist matches the RTL functionality.
- STA (Static Timing Analysis)
- Analyze timing paths to ensure the design meets required performance constraints.
- Physical Verification (PV)
