1. before going for these types of interview questions , study any good vlsi book 2. measure your capability by your shelf, you can go to any chapter end questions and see how many questions you can solve 3. for experienced professionals prepare one of your projects thoroughly, most common question for vlsi experienced professionals is explain one of the projects , remember you have to explain relevant experience which are suitable for the job requirement 4. for fundamentals you may be asked on deep sub micron technology , channel length modulation, mos characteristics, noise , ..

vlsi interview questions and answers

1) Give two ways of converting a two input NAND gate to an inverter 2) Given a circuit, draw its exact timing response. (I was given a Pseudo Random Signal Generator; you can expect any sequential ckt) 3) What are set up time & hold time constraints? What do they signify? Which one is critical for estimating maximum clock frequency of a circuit? 4) Give a circuit to divide frequency of clock cycle by two 5) Design a divide-by-3 sequential circuit with 50% duty circle. (Hint: Double the Clock) 6) Suppose you have a combinational circuit between two registers driven by a clock. What will you do if the delay of the combinational circuit is greater than your clock signal? (You can’t resize the combinational circuit transistors) 7) The answer to the above question is breaking the combinational circuit and pipelining it. What will be affected if you do this? What are the different Adder circuits you studied? 9) Give the truth table for a Half Adder. Give a gate level implementation of the same. 10) Draw a Transmission Gate-based D-Latch. 11) Design a Transmission Gate based XOR. Now, how do you convert it to XNOR? (Without inverting the output) 12) How do you detect if two 8-bit signals are same? 13) How do you detect a sequence of “1101? arriving serially from a signal line? 14) Design any FSM in VHDL or Verilog

additional questions what is your roles and responsibilities in that project what all cores where present in that chip what is the technology like 130,90,65,45nm what is the clock-frequency how many clock-domains what is the voltage value what is the macro-count what is the flip-flop count what are the various analog macros how many pads were there what is your skew you had achieved what is your insertion delays what is your pll jitter how did you model your uncertainities or variations how many power-domains were there did you have multi-VDD if you had multi-VDD how did you handle insertion of level-shifters what is the SSN(simultaneous switching noise) pad ratios used in your design. how did you prevented noise in your chip how many placeable instances

what is the cell-row utilization is your design pad-limited or core-limited did you multiplexed your pads what type of package wafer bond or flip-chip if flip-chip how did you distributed power bumps any special strategy how many metal layers in your technology did you used in house library or from any vendor what is the die-area of your chip
