  • Q1. Floorplan : How do we calculate number of macros to be added in a block?
  • Ans. 

    Number of macros in a block is calculated based on the size of the block, the size of the macros, and the desired spacing between macros.

    • Calculate the area of the block

    • Determine the size of the macros

    • Calculate the area taken up by each macro

    • Divide the block area by the macro area to get the number of macros

    • Consider any spacing requirements between macros

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: They asked me about my thesis and some device related questions as my thesis was on modelling of device. Questions were basic and were related to variation of device parameters with environmental factors and other parameters. Apart from that, several questions related to basic digital circuits were also asked concerning flip flops, latches, setup time and hold time. The technical interview went on for approximately 1 hour.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: The HR round lasted for about 5 mins only. The HR person asked me whether I were interested in going for PhD or not and about my hobbies and interests. Overall, the interviewers are very friendly and asked basic questions only.
