VLSI LAB

VLSI LAB was setup in the year 2008 in the department of Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE). This lab is equipped with the standard VLSI EDA tools and hardware resources. The lab facility includes course lab for course projects, assignments and research. VLSI Lab consists of total 15 good qualities PC with power backup. Some good VLSI books and VLSI materials inside the lab help the students, researchers and all enthusiasts to acquire all the much needed concepts to deal with different practical experiments.

The focus of this lab is widely spread towards different pros and cons of the entire upgrading VLSI domain. Development works at different levels like digital VLSI simulation, circuits & system design and research in some recent trends like error correcting codes have been extensively being carried out.
