SKILLS
PROJECTS
• Proximity Wireless Communication: In this i have discussed about an upcoming technology about PWC,
which is very useful for short distance wireless communication. In this paper, i have discussed about the
construction, application and guidelines of two different types of PWC technology. One is on stacked chip
and the other on board to board interface.
• LFSR Interleaver: Wrote the Verilog code of the complete interleaver. It is an interleaver which is a fundamental
part of the turbo code design and plays critical role in the performance of turbo decoding.It consists of an
address generation unit, a ram, multiplexers, and a counter which works as an address and a reset unit. Here
AGU generates 12283 random addresses. Here for the first 12283 clock cycles the data is stored sequentially
in ram and after the datas are taken out randomly. Have done this under the guidance of Prof Rahul Shrestha.
• Sense Amplifier based register: In this i have the circuitry for a sense amplifier based register on a 60 nm
technology node. All the circuits are designed on cadence virtuaso and it is verified through simulation on
the same. And from the simulation, i have calculated propagation delay, set-up and hold time for the circuit.
I have made the layout for the same.
• Oscillator and Signal’s Frequency:In this i have designed three different oscillators on Lt Spice named RC
Phase, Collpits and Hartely and compared the generated signal’s frequency. Have also implemented it in
breadboard and checked the generated signal on oscilloscope.
• Restoring Square root: Have designed a 32 bit restoring square root calculator. Wrote the verilog code of
it.Mainly this unit was used in MIPS32 computer. As in processors, arithmatic unit is one of the most important
unit and for many different arithmatics we need to calculate the square root of the number.
