Ansys RedHawk training is a 8 weeks training program targeted for standard power noise and reliability sign-off solution for SOC designs. RedHawk helps create high-performance SoCs which are power efficient and reliable for electromigration, thermal and electrostatic discharge issues. RedHawk is the sign-off solution for all the foundries. RedHawk’s advanced Distributed Machine Processing (DMP) enables significantly higher capacity and better performance for full-chip IR/dynamic voltage drop, power/signal electromigration (EM) and electrostatic discharge (ESD) analyses.
RedHawk training will focus on all the aspects Power integrity, and IR drop analysis.

TESTIMONIALS
Best Institute for VLSI DOMAIN. The Faculty is friendly.
In videos Srinivas Sir is the best in teaching.
The Lab Session are very very Good They will clear your all the doubts.
They Conduct PPT presentations Session for students for real experience and
Mock iAnd thanks to srinivas Reddy sir and monahar sir to solve my issuenterviews
And thanks to srinivas Reddy sir and monahar sir to solve my issue.
I completed Physical Design course in the institute and I would say VLSIGURU is the best institute at Bangalore. They have taught each concepts of PD in details and every faculty member is extremely supportive, whenever I had doubts they had it cleared for me which I liked the most. Also LAB classes are very good, they give tool access and you can explore on the tools like an adventurer. One of the greatest boon VLSIGURU has is they keep the live sessions recorded so that if anyone need to revisit the concepts again they can re-watch it.
I enrolled in Frontend Verification training course, firstly about the syllabus, they teach a lot of things I have compared to other classes no-one teaches so many things as VLSIGURU has taught me. The live lectures happen on regular basis which is a combination of theory as well as practicals. The mentors are just awesome they have a very good knowledge about the modules and clear our every doubts.
The admins are very much co-operative and understandable and help you throughout the course.
The concepts taught are in a very simplified manner and every lecture is recorded.
Very much satisfied will recommend to any VLSI enthusiast.
I am very thankful to Owner of inskill Sreenivasa Reddy sir which have Excellent teaching skill and more powerful industry experience and good placement of these institute.
All mentor and trainer well experienced.
Verilog , system verilog ,UVM and project are in really depth with Lab and assignment session .
I appreciate efforts put up by all inskill team and specially appreciate to Sreenivasa Reddy sir.
I strongly recommend this course for students who want to start their journey in vlsi domain.
