VLSI Course In Ahmedabad, Gujarat

VLSI based projects fall into two broad categories, namely VLSI based system design and VLSI design itself. Though both these terms might look similar there is a very significant difference between the two. VLSI based system design involves using already existing FPGA / CPLDs and their respective development tools to create new systems. VLSI design itself involves design of new ICs for increase in power efficiency or increase in computational capacities etc.

At Ahmedabad we offer VLSI projects in the system design category, because it has wider scope for innovation and creating new applications. VLSI projects are technically rewarding because they involve the design of a system from the scratch. Also unlike a few years ago when hardware implementations in VLSI projects was prohibitively complicated and expensive, these days that is not much of a challenge.

Also with the use of other associated technologies very good hardware projects in VLSI are possible. Another reason why a student might be interested in a VLSI project is because of the future career prospects. Lots of career opportunities are possible in the VLSI domain and hence a project in VLSI makes all the more sense.

VLSI design in general and projects in VLSI in particular are equally applicable for ECE, EEE and even Instrumentation departments. ECE projects in VLSI could be using various communication technologies, be it wired or wireless. Similarly EEE projects in VLSI could be on machine control, power line communication etc. Be it ECE VLSI projects or EEE VLSI projects, real time projects are possible in both cases.
