Semiconductor
Unique features of the industry include continuous growth but in a cyclical pattern with high volatility
The Indian electronics industry saw growth in the early years of the 21st century, Encouraged both by government policies and incentives and by international investment. Its key and mainly resource-intensive division, the semiconductor business benefitted from household demand rising briskly. Semiconductors were essential by a huge number of industries, including information technology, automobile, engineering, power & solar Photovoltaic, telecommunications, , industrial machinery and automation, medical electronics, defense and aerospace, consumer electronics, and appliances.
Present microchips are now embedded into the whole lot from cars and washing machines to fighter planes. Global Semiconductor Trade Statistics, a data provider, reckons that the market for chips was worth $412bn in 2017, a rise of 21.6% on the year before. If anything, these raw numbers understate the importance of chipmaking. The global e-commerce industry, for instance, is reckoned to have revenues of over $2trn a year. If facts are the new oil, chips are the internal-combustion engines that rotate them into somewhat useful.
Development
Most ICs had a limited set of functions they could perform, before the introduction of VLSI technology. An electronic circuit may consist of a CPU, ROM, RAM & other glue logic. IC designers add all of these into one chip and VLSI allows the same.
The design hierarchy involves the standard of "Divide and Conquer." It is nothing but isolating the task into minor tasks until it reaches to its simplest level. This method is most suitable because the last evolution of design has turn into so simple that its manufacturing becomes easier.
RTL Design
Numerous aspects of the RTL design flow on chips used in the automotive, mobile, networking, multimedia and processor industries. Our group of experienced design engineers, complemented by a cluster of mid-level engineers have worked on these domains.
- RTL IP DESIGN
- SOC Integration
- Microarchitecture Development
- Synthesis,CDC,LINT,STA, low power
DFT Insertion and Simulations
- Extensive support in Scan, BIST, JTAG, EDT, BSC logic Insertion
- ATPG fault coverage analysis
- Deep support in Mentor/Synopsys tool sets.
Physical design
At Univision we provide expertise in following domain- IO Planning/Floor-Planning/Power Planning/P&R/Metal Fills

VLSI Testing
Validation
Functional Verification
Our team has demonstrated proficiency on taking complete ownership of verification of a design from scratch – whether that is an IP/SOC/subsystem – and taking it to verification closure by performing the subsequent activities:
- Understanding the design as per the specification document and creating the test plan
- Creating the entire verification environment with industry standard methodologies like UVM/OVM/VMM
- Executing the test plan by using an clever mix of restraint random, aimed at random test cases
- Gate level simulations
- Verification conclusion through corner case verification, coverage end and regression closure
Post silicon validation
- Basic device bring-up
- Functional validation using firmware for targeted features
- Device Characterization
Analog & Mixed signal verification
The AMS verification team at Univision has the skillsets required to execute on
- Analog-signal obstruct simulations
- Modeling of mixed and analog signal blocks using Verilog-AMS
- Creating digital mixed signal test benches
- Wide-ranging AMS full chip verification of mixed signal ASICs
Automation
Verification testing, characterization testing and design debug are utilised to verifie correctness of design and test procedure.
