VLSI Indian Institute of Technology Mandi

Overview

About VLSI at Indian Institute of Technology Mandi

During M. Tech thesis, the students will use VLSI design, testing and fabrication laboratories. For a better insight of the specialization, the core laboratories for VLSI design and fabrication have been designed with considering experimental understanding of the Specialization Core courses. The laboratory experiments will build the basic concepts and the advanced concepts for chip designing. The VLSI laboratories will be the part of VLSI centre of IIT Mandi.

Moreover, these VLSI laboratories will be further useful for undergraduate students of IIT Mandi, in advance learning of B. Tech with VLSI as minor area. The UG students will also use the VLSI centre facility to execute their major technical project. It is envisaged that adjunct faculty from industry such as SCL (Mohali). STMicroelectronics, Texas instruments, Analog Devices, NXP, Synopsys, Cadence, Mentor Graphics etc. will be engaged to provide industrial experience to M. Tech students. 

How is this program different  

• Very strong industry oriented curriculum.  

• Practicum based learning.  

• Industry oriented courses.  

• The Chip designing EDA tools (Cadence, Mentor Graphics, Synopsys, Silvaco, Centaurus and Comsol) based learning. These tools are the latest one and used in all the VLSI industries.  

• 100 Class and 1000 Class clean room facility available at IIT Mandi for device fabrications.  

• Sophisticated instrumentations facility available for device fabrications and characterizations.  

• Learning design as well as fabrication aspects of the chip.  

• Generate and trained manpower for semiconductor design and upcoming fab-line in India.  
• There is a vast market opportunities for the graduating students.
