An Asic Intern was asked
Q. How would you implement a clock with signals in Verilog?
Ans. 

Verilog code for a clock signal generation and manipulation.

  • Define a clock signal using 'reg' type in Verilog.

  • Use 'always' block to toggle the clock signal at a specified interval.

  • Example: 'always #5 clk = ~clk;' for a 10 time unit clock period.

  • Consider using 'initial' block to set the initial state of the clock.

  • Use 'posedge' or 'negedge' to trigger events on clock edges.

A Software Engineer was asked
Q. You are given two numbers represented by two linked lists of size n and m respectively. Return the linked list that represents the sum of the two numbers.
Ans. 

Sum two numbers represented by linked lists and return the result as a linked list.

  • Each linked list node represents a single digit.

  • Digits are stored in reverse order (least significant digit first).

  • Traverse both linked lists, adding corresponding digits and managing carry.

  • Example: Linked List 1: 2 -> 4 -> 3 (represents 342), Linked List 2: 5 -> 6 -> 4 (represents 465). Result: 7 -> 0 -> 8 (repres...

An Asic Engineer was asked
Q. What are the STA questions on calculating the maximum clock frequency?
Ans. 

Understanding STA is crucial for calculating the maximum clock frequency in ASIC design.

  • Static Timing Analysis (STA) checks timing paths to ensure they meet setup and hold requirements.

  • Maximum clock frequency is determined by the longest path delay in the design.

  • Example: If the longest path delay is 10ns, the maximum clock frequency is 100MHz (1/10ns).

  • STA tools like Synopsys PrimeTime help automate the analysis pr...

An Asic Engineer was asked
Q. Write Verilog code for a D-Flip Flop.
Ans. 

A D flip flop is a sequential logic circuit that stores a single bit of data.

  • A D flip flop has a data input (D), a clock input (CLK), and an output (Q).

  • The output (Q) of a D flip flop changes only when the clock input (CLK) transitions from low to high.

  • The output (Q) of a D flip flop follows the value of the data input (D) when the clock input (CLK) transitions from low to high.

  • The Verilog code for a D flip flop c...

A DFT Engineer was asked
Q. What is the difference between T3 and T5 violations?
Ans. 

T3 and T5 violations are related to timing constraints in digital circuits.

  • T3 violation occurs when the data arrives too late at the destination register.

  • T5 violation occurs when the data arrives too early at the destination register.

  • T3 and T5 violations can cause setup and hold time violations.

  • T3 and T5 violations can be fixed by adjusting the timing constraints or by adding delay elements.

  • Examples of T3 and T5 v...

A DFT Engineer was asked
Q. Why can there be any coverage loss for 100% scan design?
Ans. 

Coverage loss can occur due to test pattern compression, test pattern generation, and test application issues.

  • Test pattern compression can cause loss of coverage due to the reduction in the number of test patterns.

  • Test pattern generation can result in coverage loss if the generated patterns do not cover all the faults.

  • Test application issues such as timing violations or signal integrity problems can also lead to c...

A DFT Engineer was asked
Q. Can hold time or setup violations occur during stuck-at capture?
Ans. 

Yes, hold time/setup violation can occur at stuckat capture.

  • Stuck-at faults can cause hold time violations if the data is not held long enough for the capture register to sample it.

  • Similarly, setup violations can occur if the data is not stable before the capture register samples it.

  • These violations can be avoided by proper timing constraints and clocking strategies.

  • For example, adding a delay to the clock signal ...
