From EFY Magazine to VSDSquadron: VSD’s Journey Through the Electronics Interview Circuit

Read our interview at Electronics for you (EFY) magazine and dive into the transformative world of VLSI with the enlightening article that serves as a beacon for all aspiring electronics enthusiasts. VLSI, or Very Large Scale Integration, isn’t just a technical term; it’s a vision that beckons the future of electronics, breathing life into devices by embedding millions of transistors on a singular chip. This incredible feat of engineering has not only redefined the electronics landscape but has also expanded the horizons of what’s conceivable.

Traditional pieces of training have taken an orthogonal shift, post-release of open-source EDA tools and SKY130 foundry. This has brought a huge opportunity for semiconductor ed-tech companies like VSD to close a wide gap within many training companies that have shifted their curriculum from theoretical PDK to real PDK. If you are a student, who is reading this email, do not panic if you are not aware of PDK. This is something which we are covering in the workshop.

What I did in 8-weeks-VSD Internship? – Open Source Power Analysis Tool Using Python

Power analysis has materialized as a principal theme in today’s world in semiconductor industries. As very large scale integrated circuit (VLSI) are far beyond from human ability because of complexity in nature. So to analyse power in these circuits we use open source computer aided tools, plenty of tools are available but most of them are costly. I designed an open source power analysis tool for the academic use. This tool gives out values of average and leakage power of any circuit by just giving the netlist of circuit file along with name of supply voltage as input. This tool is designed in python language.
