Project Overview

Developed digital controller, configuration interface, and SPI readout for mixed-signal cryogenic ASIC in 22nm FD-SOI. Led RTL-to-GDSII backend flow achieving 200MHz timing closure under cryogenic (4K) constraints.

Design Flow

  • RTL Design: Verilog HDL implementation and verification
  • Synthesis: Cadence Genus with technology-specific optimization
  • Place & Route: Cadence Innovus with timing and power closure
  • Physical Verification: DRC/LVS with Calibre and extraction
  • Verification: Post-layout simulation and formal verification
