Designed a Viterbi decoder in 45nm technology to solve the generic Hidden Mark Model problem. This involved digital design using Verilog HDL, Simulation in Modelsim and Synthesis in Design Compiler
Worked in a team of two to design, implement, debug and test the schematic and layout of a 4-bit data arbiter. The arbiter resolves bus arbitrations between two 4-bit data transmitters and prevents…
•The total cell area was 1225 µm2 (approx) with a worst case propagation delay of 0.15ns using standard 0.25 µm technology process. (Using Cadence Virtuoso)
Designed the schematic and layout of Sense Amplifier, Low Swing Driver and Receiver using Cadence Virtuoso and Calibre LVS/ DRC. The voltage swing was reduced to about 0.2V to reduce the power…
A Strong-Arm flip-flop was designed using Cadence Virtuoso 2008. The flip flop was efficiently designed and optimized for low power consumption. Low power consumption of 32uW was achieved.
