Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: There was a section wise cut-off. So, if you performed well in Digital,say, you would be shortlisted irrespective of your performance in Analog(provided, you performed bad here). There were people who got shortlisted for both profiles. Difficulty was moderate. Analog required a bit of thinking. Digital was mostly on basics. Aptitude was easy. There was negative marking for all sections.
Tips: Analog: Analog Electronics, Control Systems, Analog Integrated Circuits. Basics mostly.
Digital: DECA, DSD (especially VHDL ), some microprocessor basics.
Aptitude: No preparation necessary
Duration: 90 minutes
Total Questions: 60
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Round1: Basic questions on CMOS, MUX logic(like, make an XOR gate using 2:1 MUX), STA, and strangely on C programming(in the end)
Round2: In depth discussion of above mentioned topics. Like, relation between Vih, Vil, Vol,Voh of inverter characteristics with Vth and Vtp, How to make the curve more ideal, types power dissipation in CMOS circuits, etc. Also, make FlipFlops using MUXes, STA,etc
Tips: Be clear with basics. Given a question, speak out loud and clear your approach(answer is secondary), Interviewers are nice and keep giving hints. Draw diagrams if necessary.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: Normal HR questions. Finally, only 4 were selected: 3 from digital, 1 from analog, though many had HR interview. So, HR interview doesn't necessarily mean you are in.
Tips: Donot give single line answers, not essays as well. Let it be crisp and to the point. Donot generalise anything. Be nice.
Skills: Static Timing Analysis (STA), VLSI Design, Basic Digital Logic

2 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: SCREENING TEST
Experience: Texas Instruments is the first semiconductor company visiting the campus. The selection procedure involves a screening test, a technical interview and a final HR interview. Pointer cutoff will generally be 6 or 7, and PCs can even request to not have any cutoff if there are enough resources (computers) to conduct online screening test.
General Tips: Department courses such as Analog Electronics, Linear Signals and Systems, Linear Control Systems, Linear Integrated Circuits are very important. More emphasis is given to Network Theory and Feedback theory. Questions will be tricky in the sense that you might not have seen them before, but can be solved with intuition and less math. By intuition, I mean the answers follow from application of basic principles of network theory (superposition, Thevenin etc). Very good articles on Network and Feedback theory can be found at Prof. KRK Rao's website.
Skill Tips: In the interview, it is okay if you don't know the answer to any question. But try to use the hints provided by the interviewer and solve the problem. They are more concerned about your approach rather than the answer.
