Round 1 - Technical 

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. What is cross talk
  • Ans. 

    Cross talk is the unwanted transfer of signals between different components or traces on a circuit board.

    • Occurs when signals from one trace interfere with signals on another trace

    • Can lead to signal distortion or errors in data transmission

    • Prevented by proper spacing and shielding between traces

    • Example: Cross talk between data lines on a PCB causing errors in communication

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. How to define generated clocks through edges
  • Ans. 

    Generated clocks through edges are defined by specifying the source clock and the edge on which the generated clock is based.

    • Specify the source clock for the generated clock

    • Define the edge (rising/falling) on which the generated clock is based

    • Use tools like Synopsys Design Compiler to define generated clocks

(2 Questions)

  • Q1. Simple FSM given similar to mux and asked for testcases and assertions.
  • Q2. Coverage to write transitions of states.
  • Ans. 

    Coverage-driven verification techniques are used to ensure all possible state transitions are exercised.

    • Coverage metrics like state, transition, and toggle coverage can be used to track the completeness of state transitions.

    • Writing directed tests to cover specific state transitions can help achieve higher coverage.

    • Random stimulus generation can also be used to explore different state transitions.

(4 Questions)

  • Q1. I was asked to write two sum, palindrome function and merge sort code in whatever language I'm comfortable in
  • Q2. Two sum- return true or false
  • Ans. 

    Given an array of integers, determine if there are two numbers that add up to a specific target.

    • Iterate through the array and store each element in a hash set.

    • For each element, check if the difference between the target and the element exists in the hash set.

    • If the difference exists, return true; otherwise, continue iterating.

    • Example: nums = [2, 7, 11, 15], target = 9. The function should return true as 2 + 7 = 9.
