A Complete Guide to System-on-Chip in VLSI Design

What is VLSI SoC?

Introduction to SoC

What is a System-on-Chip (SoC)?

A System-on-Chip integrates all components of a computer or electronic system onto a single chip – processor, memory, I/O, and more.

Where Does VLSI Fit In?

VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) enables the design and integration of millions of transistors on a single chip—making SoCs possible.

Why Are SoCs So Important?

VLSI (VerySoCs power everything—from smartphones and laptops to IoT devices and autonomous cars—delivering performance, power efficiency, and compact size. Large Scale Integration) enables the design and integration of millions of transistors on a single chip—making SoCs possible.

What’s Inside an SoC?

– CPU / GPU – Memory blocks – Peripherals – Power Management – Interconnect

How is an SoC Designed?

– Specification – RTL Design – Verification – Synthesis – Physical Design – Signoff & Tape-out

Career in SoC Design with VLSI

Roles like SoC Design Engineer, RTL Engineer, PD Engineer, DV Engineer, and DFT Engineer are in high demand.
