Course Preamble

The complex Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) systems are built on System on Chips (SoCs). In a SoC usually, many processor cores and the essential peripherals are wrapped. To design a SoC, knowledge in processor architectures, various bus protocols, etc. are essential. Also, the SoC verification is more challenging as it involves the verification of many complex scenarios. Therefore usually the SoCs are emulated on a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and the real chip verification will be carried out before spin. This VLSI SoC Design and Verification course focuses on building the necessary industry skills required to work in SoC Design/Verification/FPGA Emulation projects. The course focuses on industry-standard Advanced RISC Machine (ARM) processors based SoC design, verification, and FPGA emulation. The necessary skills (Verilog HDL Coding for synthesis, FPGA Architecture and Programming, System Verilog based Verification, etc.) required to perform industry jobs are covered in this course. The course will transform the successful participants into industry-ready employable engineers. In addition, it helps to conceive and hand-hold startup industries in the VLSI SoC Design/Verification/Emulation domain.
