Setup Time is the minimum time data must remain stable before the active clock edge.
Hold Time is the minimum time data must remain stable after the active clock edge.
Violating either can cause metastability and incorrect circuit operation. These are critical concepts in Static Timing Analysis (STA).

The ASIC design flow typically includes:

• Specification

• RTL Design (Verilog/VHDL)

• Functional Verification

• Logic Synthesis

• Static Timing Analysis (STA)

• Physical Design (Place & Route)

• DRC/LVS Verification

• Tape-Out and Fabrication

This flow converts a design concept into a manufacturable integrated circuit.

Clock skew is the difference in arrival time of the same clock signal at different flip-flops. Excessive clock skew can cause setup and hold violations, leading to timing failures. Physical design engineers work to minimize clock skew using Clock Tree Synthesis (CTS).

Our comprehensive syllabus covers Digital Electronics fundamentals, CMOS Technology, Verilog HDL, SystemVerilog, RTL Design, ASIC Design Flow, FPGA Design, UVM (Universal Verification Methodology), Physical Design concepts (Floorplanning, Placement, Routing, CTS), Static Timing Analysis (STA), DFT (Design for Testability), and Synthesis using Synopsys DC. Hands-on projects are integrated into every module to ensure practical learning.

JastTech stands out because of our industry-expert trainers who possess over 10 years of active semiconductor experience. We provide individual access to high-end EDA tools like Cadence, Synopsys, and ModelSim. Our curriculum spans the entire design ecosystem—from initial RTL coding and ASIC design to physical verification—ensuring students are workforce-ready from day one.

After completing your training, entry-level engineers can expect a starting salary ranging from ₹5 LPA to ₹9 LPA, depending on the company and specific skill proficiency. Mid-level VLSI engineers with 2–4 years of experience typically command ₹10–18 LPA, while senior VLSI design engineers in Chennai earn between ₹20–35 LPA. Our placement-focused curriculum is designed to help you target these higher-tier brackets right from your first interview.

The fee for our specialized training programs starts from ₹45,000 and varies based on the learning track you select (such as RTL Design, ASIC Verification, or Physical Design). We offer flexible EMI payment options and early-enrollment scholarship discounts.
