DESCRIPTION:Workshop objective:\n\nThe aim of this workshop is to provide h
 ands-on experience on the state-of-the-art Cadence EDA tools for VLSI Desi
 gn. The participants will have an exposure to the Circuit Design &amp; Simulat
 ion\, Layout\, Physical Verification (DRC\, LVS)\, and Extraction. The wor
 kshop includes practice sessions on the Cadence design and simulation tool
 s (Virtuoso\, Spectre\, Assura and Incisive).\n\nAbout Cadence:\n\nCadence
  is a leading provider of EDA and semiconductor IP. Our custom/analog tool
 s help engineers design the transistors\, standard cells\, and IP blocks t
 hat make up SoCs. Our digital tools automate the design and verification o
 f giga-scale\, giga-hertz SoCs at the latest semiconductor processing node
 s. Our IC packaging and PCB tools permit the design of complete boards and
  subsystems. Cadence also offers a growing portfolio of design IP and veri
 fication IP for memories\, interface protocols\, analog/mixed-signal compo
 nents\, and specialized processors. And reaching up to the systems level\,
  Cadence offers an integrated suite of hardware/software co-development pl
 atforms. In short\, Cadence® technology helps customers build great produ
 cts that connect the world.\n\nWorkshop Topics:\n\n-  Introduction to VLSI
 \, Technologies\, Applications\, Future Trends in VLSI.\n-  Design and Ana
 lysis of Analog Circuits.\n-  Design and Analysis of Digital Circuits.\n- 
  Design of Layouts of Analog and Digital Circuits.\n\nAbout the participan
 ts:\n\nNumber of participants: 19\n\nWorkshop Process:\n\nThe program invo
 lves individual and group exercises as well as input from the course leade
 r\, and presentations from the speakers. There were many opportunities to 
 raise questions or concerns throughout the Workshops.\n\nThe following app
 roaches were used\n\n-  Lectures\n-  Discussions\n-  Group work which cons
 tituted a means for developing the skills of participants.\n-  Practice se
 ssions\n\nDay-1 or 25.10.2016:\n\nFN: The workshop session started at 10:0
 0am with a brief lecture on history and invention of transistors\, IC’s 
 integration to VLSI technology\, VLSI design flow\, VLSI Design Styles\, t
 he design issues and design methodologies followed by Trends and future sc
 ope in VLSI.\n\nAN: The session started by giving an introduction to diffe
 rent EDA Tools and discussed the importance of Cadence EDA tool. There aft
 er tool was introduced to the participants with the design of basic invert
 er and then the students have simulated the circuit using spectre and done
  different analysis transient\, DC\, AC etc. Also the participants have ob
 served the characteristics of transistors by changing different parameters
  like W/L ratios and variations in biasing the circuit etc.\n\nDay-2 or 26
 -10-16:\n\nFN: The session started with a lecture on fundamentals of analo
 g signals and system\, and the design and analysis of different analog cir
 cuit. Followed by the design entry in virtuoso (Schematic editor).\n\nAN:

 r 27.10.2016:\n\nFN: The session was started by introducing the Custom IC 
 Flow\, and the design rules for 180nm technology\, followed by the introdu
 ction to stick diagrams and Layouts. And the participants have done the la
 yout for an inverter without design violations.\n\nAN: This session was de
