Computer Aided Design for System on Chips (CAD4SoC) – (GreenChips-EDU)

"Computer Aided Design for System on Chips (CAD4SoC)" is an online course, developed within the framework of GreenChips-EDU - an EU-backed initiative with the support of the Digital Europe Programme of the European Union.

GreenChips-EDU is an education venture, aimed at training essential specialists for the European semiconductor industry. By aligning education with sustainability principles, the EU project emphasizes green applications in the energy sector and empowers students to develop the skills needed to support a sustainable and circular economy.

About this course

CAD4SoC (Computer Aided Design for System on chips) is a master level course offered by TU Darmstadt. It is a completely digitalized course, meaning, that no presence in a lecture hall of TUDa is required, even the two half day integrated labs can be remotely done.

Learning outcomes

A student is, after successful completion of this module, able to understand:

•  The most important design and verification abstractions as well as the design flow for the design of integrated electronic systems,
• Selected algorithms for optimization, simulation and solving of design tasks,
• Advanced methods for the design and simulation of analog integrated circuits in modern CMOS technologies,
• Advanced concepts of hardware description languages and their concepts (Verilog, VHDL, Verilog-A, Verilog-AMS, System-Verilog)

Further details

Please contact us by email. The course is fully digitalized, and can therefore be started any time. There will be a written exam by about mid-end of February (for the offering in every winter term) resp. end of July (for the offering in every summer term), which is physically done in Darmstadt, but participation remotely is possible. The recognition of the exam result is possible by VECP, if you are a student of a Unite! university.
