What you will be responsible for:

• Synthesis & Logic Optimization Support:
  • Assist in logic synthesis and basic design optimizations for AI architectures (e.g., TPUs, NPUs).
  • Learn and support the development of arithmetic units (e.g., MAC arrays, SIMD engines).
• Timing Analysis (Learning Focus):
  • Support static timing analysis (STA) under guidance.
  • Help analyze critical paths and clock constraints in multi-clock designs.
• Power & Area Awareness:
  • Explore low-power design concepts such as clock gating and power domains.
  • Assist in basic memory hierarchy analysis for power and area trade-offs.
• Design-for-Test (DFT) Exposure:
  • Observe DFT activities like scan insertion and MBIST setup.
  • Assist in documentation or script preparation related to DFT flows.
• Collaboration with Physical Design:
  • Collaborate with the physical design team to understand floorplanning and P&R basics.
  • Help collect and verify design constraints for AI-specific modules.
• Verification & Debugging:
  • Support formal equivalence checks under mentorship.
