I applied via Campus Placement and was interviewed in Apr 2024. There were 2 interview rounds.

Round 1 - Technical 

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. Stick diagram for nand CMOS inverter
  • Ans. 

    A stick diagram is a simplified way to represent the layout of a CMOS inverter circuit.

    • Use sticks to represent the diffusion regions of the transistors in the CMOS inverter

    • Draw a stick for the PMOS transistor connected to VDD and a stick for the NMOS transistor connected to GND

    • Connect the sticks with lines to represent the metal interconnects between the transistors

    • Label the input and output nodes of the inverter for c

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. If we invert the circuit of inverter then what will happen
  • Ans. 

    If the circuit of an inverter is inverted, it will act as a buffer.

    • Inverting an inverter circuit essentially cancels out the inversion, making it act as a buffer.

    • The output will be the same as the input signal, with no inversion.

    • This can be useful in certain signal processing applications where a non-inverted signal is needed.

about microprocesors- interrupt scheme: which scheme is better , when?
about assembly programming.
They may ask you to write assembly codes/C program
emphasis is on the logic used and not so much on the syntax.
