OPEN SOURCE IC DESIGN WORKSHOP

DUK Gallery Hall Digital University Kerala, Trivandrum

Digital University Kerala in association with IEEE CASS organized the programme for students of Classes 6 to 10.Digital University Kerala (DUK) conducted a novel workshop on integrated circuit (IC) design for middle school-level students at the Centre of Excellence AI Chip Design Centre on Saturday. The hands-on learning programme focused on open-source tools to encourage the budding technologists to build, simulate and test their own circuits. The organizers added that the open-source software lets people use important tools for IC creation without having to pay for them, which is usually the case with private software. This method makes information more accessible and enables those with an aptitude and interest in electronics to learn about IC design.
