The session aimed to bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world industrial practices in VLSI. The resource person explained the fundamental concepts of VLSI design, including digital circuit design, logic synthesis, physical design flow, and verification techniques. Students were introduced to popular VLSI design tools such as Microwind, Cadence, and Xilinx, and learned how integrated circuits are conceptualized, simulated, and fabricated. During the interaction, the guest highlighted the importance of VLSI technology in modern electronics, such as its applications in processors, embedded systems, IoT devices, and AI accelerators. The session also included a discussion on career opportunities in the semiconductor sector and the skills required to pursue roles such as VLSI design engineer, verification engineer, and physical design specialist.
