  • Project-1: SPICE Level Verification of IO Ring Pads
  • POC signal is generated by combination of Reset & Enable pins.
  • Verified core and the power up sequence of operation.
  • Project-2: SPICE level verification of critical path delay for IO rgmii
  • This project is for verification of IO rgmii. Critical path delay between flip flops needs to be measured to decide the fastest mode of operation of the core. The simulation is done for different temperature profile and different bias voltages for sequential blocks (flip flop) and combinational circuit (chain of buffers and inverters)
  • Develop stimulus for different corners.
