There are three major research areas in system on chip domain that we are concentrating:
Circuit design :
Developing the new mixed mode circuit design for high precision low voltage and high-speed application.
Design methodology :
Developing systematic methods for design that incorporate the reuse of existing design , module generation and automatic layout of analog digital integrated circuit.
Modeling /simulation :
Constructing the accurate computer model of circuit devices and interconnect. And as well as developing methodologies to evaluate test and characterize to new and existing simulator and /or improve the speed and efficiency of the analog and digital simulation. one of the main objectives of this research effort is the higher integration of analog/digital components, and transceivers components to facilitate communication System On a Chip.
The list of research projects in which we are involved are :
- CMOS radio-frequency integrated circuit design
- Mixed-signal electronics
- Data converters, analog to digital and digital to analog
- Interconnect modeling and packaging
- Multi-standards transceivers; WBCDMA, GPRS, GSM, 3G
- Multi-antenna transceivers
- Digital Signal processing (audio video ,data)
The design sciences area will focus on mixed signal design methodology, technology and tools, especially novel circuit e.g Wireless communications Multiple antennas systems design Space-time coding.
Computer communication networks :
- Dynamic channel allocation in telecommunication networks
- High speed network real-time video multicast
- Multimedia LANs/MANs, and multiple access protocols
- Design of high-speed analog, RF and mixed-signal integrated circuits Noise and signal
- Integrity in high-speed VLSI circuits Communication and information theory Image and
- Audio coding Optical communications
Mixed signal design :
Analog and Digital integrated circuit are growing in no. of fields including avionic, space technology, medical electronics and wireless communication. The telecommunication circuit demands for mixed signal circuit capable of high speed, high resolution and low power performance is rapidly expanding and continue to challenge to researcher.
System on chip integration is driven by need of cost reduction in many applications such as wire less cell phone. Mass storage, DSL modem, and cable modem short distant wireless and digital still camera.
In this device issues are with the integration of analog and rf functions together with deep sub micron digital CMOS.
SOC system shows the growing complexity on chip, which has become available as a result of the smaller line width.
The following system we have designed and developed for the California based companies :
- Various compression and encryption algorithms we have design , developed and implemented in xilinx programmable chip.
- Various interfaces such as i2c , pci , Pcmcia ,wisor interface . compact flash , sdram interface , camera interface have been designed and implemented in fpga chips.
- Some data compression algorithm specifically video compression algorithms to achieve the best compression ratio and best quality of result
All above result have been verified by the international client and appreciated our work.
We are also giving our services to the prestigious industry such as Philips , Telco , Videocon, Larson & Tubro. for pcb board design and development up to 10 layers with cadence and mentor graphic pcb design tool.
To support this research design and development activities we have the EDA tools from global leader like CADENCE(ASIC DESIGN BUNDLE ,PCB DESIGN BUNDLE). MENTOR( FPGA ADVANTAGE , SYNOPSYS ( FPGA EXPRESS ,XILINX 5.1I , ORCAD9.2, MATALAB from MATHS CORPORATION
