Course Overview
Unlike digital design, which involves working with a vast number of transistors, ranging from tens of thousands to millions of gates for a single module/block, analog design typically deals with circuits containing only a few dozen to a few hundred transistors, MOSFETs, resistors, and capacitors per module/cell. In digital design, cells are standardized in size, whereas in analog design, the engineer has full control over the dimensions. As a result, the processes, methods, and tools used for analog design differ significantly from those used in digital design. Although the detailed processes may vary between companies, the overall approach remains similar.
The Analog IC Design Training Program at Phenikaa Semiconductor Training Center (PSTC), transferred from Synopsys—the world’s leading EDA corporation—ensures that students receive the most advanced knowledge and skills. The course provides comprehensive education on Analog IC Design, from theory to practice, empowering students to confidently tackle challenges in one of today’s hottest fields.
