Physical Verification - Essential Concepts

Whether you are a fresher or experienced professional who wants to refresh your concepts, this is the right place for you to start.  Lectures are organised topic based so that each lecture is more or less independent of each other, so that it is also possible to start a lecture in between and understand all the concepts taught there. You will gain a better understanding of DRC, LVS, ERC and multiple other topics that are essential to physical verification. Whether you are looking for job opportunities in the industry or have an interview and want to prepare for it, you can start with this course. Physical designers who want to understand this sign off domain can also benefit from this course.  Quizes are provided between lectures so that students can refresh the concepts learnt in the lectures and if any concept is not clear, the equivalent lecture can be revisited. Few real cases encountered by the lecturer as a physical verification engineer is also included in the course, so that the students can benifit from this course. Basic understanding of electronics is required for understanding the course. The students should brush up on fundamentals, like what is a resistor, capacitor, transistor, diode e.t.c, so as to make best use of the course. Happy learning!!
