Signal Processing and VLSI Lab

Introduction:

The laboratory provides support to the research activities of integrated circuits & embedded systems. It also supports the department activities relevant to IC design, including teaching modules.

The research activities include:

  1. Analog, mixed-signal, digital and RF integrated circuits with focus on securities, communication and biomedical applications,
  2. design and VLSI implementation of high performance digital integrated circuit and systems,
  3. reconfigurable computing and electronic design automation,
  4. embedded system design,
  5. sensors, MEMS, and integrated systems.

The laboratory houses a network of Linux servers/workstations, software tools, and various test equipment. The software tools include EDA tools, such as Cadence, Synopsys and Mentor Graphics tools and, etc. The equipment housed in the laboratory is the integrated circuit test equipment and the general-purpose test instruments, such as network analyser, parameter analyser, pulse generators, VCO/PLL analyser, signal generators and dc power supplies and, etc.
