Accomplishments


  • Floorplannning based on relevant Data flow defined in architectures.
  • Addressed Setup timing convergence issues on CGC cells.
  • Did Custom Clock Implementation for Clock latency reduction, which helped to reduce the number of levels in clock path and improved the clock tree dynamic power.
  • Reduced more than 20% Buffers for hold fix In Post CTS Optimization by tweaking Clock ID for memories in mem2reg and reg2mem paths.
  • Developed slack borrowing procedure for reg2reg paths has reduced unnecessary hold optimization.
  • Developed the python script to reduce the time usage of user for launching sign off runs.
  • Converged the critical design by cleaning more than 80% of the shorts In a hotspot by finding a precise solution.
  • Developed Python scripts for Automation.
  • Has Been part of the CAD Team for Initial Flow Flush of a modem subsystem.
  • Developed a procedural tcl script based on trigonometric math function to reduce back to back hold buffers on less combo paths. was able to reduce 10% buffers from MEM2REG paths and REG2MEM paths.
  • Reduced the leakage more than 50% in the design optimization, by applying the right timing related constraint.
  • Worked On Dynamic IR drop reduction by using PG augmentation and load reduction procedures.
  • Vector based and Vectorless based Dynamic IR Drop Reduction.
  • FV CLP Debugging and analysis.
