Course Overview

Boost Your VLSI Career with an Industry-Focused DFT Online Course and Training

Design for Testability (DFT), a key specialization in the SOC design cycle, plays a critical role in detecting manufacturing defects and ensuring robust chip designs. Unlike functional verification (commonly referred to as Design Verification), DFT focuses on enhancing the testability of logic, pads, memories, and interconnects, making it a crucial skill for VLSI professionals.

The demand for skilled DFT engineers is soaring with advancements in manufacturing technologies like 10nm and 7nm. As chip sizes and complexities increase, the role of DFT engineers has evolved to include the integration of advanced test structures into the design flow, improving overall testability.

Our VLSI DFT Course Online is tailored to industry needs, covering essential techniques such as Scan Insertion for testing combinational and sequential logic, BIST (Built-In Self-Test) for memory testing, and JTAG for pad testing. The course also dives into ATPG (Automatic Test Pattern Generation) techniques for generating, simulating, and debugging test patterns on scan-inserted designs.

This comprehensive DFT Training Online program includes hands-on labs, real-world projects, and covers critical topics like SCAN, ATPG, BIST, and JTAG, ensuring you’re prepared for the demands of the VLSI industry. Enroll now to acquire in-demand DFT skills and unlock a challenging and rewarding career in the ever-growing VLSI domain.”

Placement Coordinator

Placement Assistance

At ChipXpert VLSI Training Institute, our Placement Desk is dedicated to bridging the gap between skilled engineers and top-tier VLSI companies. We work closely with both multinational corporations (MNCs) and service companies in the semiconductor industry to fulfill their entry-level hiring needs. Our strong industry collaborations ensure that our trained engineers have access to a wide range of job opportunities.

We offer comprehensive placement assistance as part of our training package. From resume building and interview preparation to arranging direct interviews with hiring companies, our support continues until candidates secure their desired positions. Additionally, we stay in constant touch with recruiters to ensure our students are matched with roles that best suit their skills and aspirations.

Our placement desk also offers personalized guidance for job seekers, including industry-specific tips and insights to help them excel during interviews. Candidates are encouraged to register with the placement desk for dedicated support throughout their job search. For further details or to start the placement process, please reach out to our Learning Advisor.

Have Any Questions

We provide placement assistance by arranging interview opportunities with hiring companies. This is complimentary service from ChipXpert, without charging any extra amount for this. We charge only for our training, but not for placements.

We provide placement support until candidate gets job. To Ensure Successful Placements, We provide added support including mentorship, fundamentals classes, soft skills training, mock interviews Etc.

Salary Range For Freshers Is From 3- 4 Lakhs Per Annum In Service Companies. Salaries In Product/MNC Companies Can Range Between 7 To 16 Lakhs.

Though 3-4 LPA appears similar to software salaries, your real growth comes after 3 years. First 2-3 years are to be considered as career building phase, to learn as much as you can and do not compare with others / IT salaries.   Your knowledge will be your power and your career / salary growth from 4th year onwards depends on your talent/knowledge.

Each year many companies visit ChipXpert for recruiting the various entry level positions because of the quality training that we offer. 

For complete list of companies visit https://chipxpert.com/view-hiring-companies/

We use 28nm,14nm libraries for labs, projects.

We use the latest and genuine versions of Synopsys Tools for our courses. please check course pages, for the list of tools used for that respective course. We provide a dedicated tool license for every learner during the lab/project work.

This is the biggest advantage with ChipEdge courses, as quality and standard EDA/VLSI tools are important for any VLSI course. And these tools are typically very costly ranging from $50,000 to $200,000 per license per year. Many service companies cannot afford these tools. Thanks to the EDA/Tool companies for giving these tools at subsidized & affordable rates to training companies, so that engineers can get trained on these tools.

We do have installment options for some courses. EMI option is available through our partner organizations, who provide loans for training programs. Please check with our learning advisors.
