Professional Experience:
BLR labs Pvt.Ltd : April-2022 to Present
Project Summary:
Project-1
Title : ARDENC0
Client : AMD, Bangalore, India
Duration : 6 months
Tech-node : 6nm
Tools used : PRIME TIME
Frequency : 1.14 GHz
Clock names : Lclk, Aclk
Responsibilities:
• Done STA in block level and supported for Full chip level .
• Did timing report analysis and forwarded those to ECO generation team
• In Linux shell we used grep for bottle neck violations and informed those things to Eco generation team
• Did timing analysis for different paths and Identified false paths
Project-2
INTERNAL PROJECT :
Tools : ICC II
Technology Node : 40nm
INST Count : 160k
Macro Count : 12
Clocks : 6
Metal Layer : 8
Frequency : 400MHz
Responsibilities:
• Learned entire PnR flow in this project.
• I applied path grouping for critical paths which made the timing better.
• floorplan experiments to meet timing and congestion requirements at place stage.
• After route I have fixed DRV’s by increasing the drive strength of driver and added buffer on long net.
• Manually fixed setup and hold violation after route by swapping SVT to LVT or high VT to low VT.
