- Implementation of (RTL2GDSII)
- Analyzed the Channel Length, VT analysis and its usage based on PPA targets
- Worked with RTL and DFT teams, to define modes and corners
- Kept switchable devices away from sensitive RF. Interference aware clocking scheme
- DVFS aware STA corner definitions and analysis
- Switchable domain. UPF development from scratch
