RV-VLSI Design Center Reviews

PROFOUND ORGANISATION THAT CAN CHANGE A ENGINEER TO PROFESSIONAL

An actual industry level experience which totally justify their claims. Professional teaching with quality and interest which meet the advanced soft-wares used. They have a conducive atmosphere for the various programs offered and provide the opportunity to get the guidance from other departments too.

RV VLSI DESIGN CENTER is the place where i came to know my ability to learn and succeed.I really felt an industry environment here.Firstly I would like to thank Venky sir, CEO of RV VLSI DESIGN CENTER for providing me a platform where i can get a chance to enter in to VLSI industry with an experience of tools which we need to work on in the industry,for guiding me by considering my feedback inspite of his busy schedule .I would like to thank all my faculty members for teaching me in a good way.I would like to thank manjula mam for being supportive and encouraging.I would like to thank each and every one here for being part of my success.

RV VLSI is not a jewelry shop to go and purchase gold (skills and knowledge), it s a mining field that you have to dig and extract what you want.
It ll be long review if you are in hurry, directly jump to CLIMAX.
I m from ADAD batch 28 Front-End (RTL Verification).
Everything is not perfect in RV-VLSI but there are good things to appreciate and more things to improve.
First and the foremost It s not a placement agency If you have idea of getting placed by joining RV then definitely it s not the place for you guys. Placements are just bonus if you performed well and luck permits you to have it, else you are on your way. But for sure if you are good then with the skills and knowledge which you gain in RV-VLSI one can find some job.
The classrooms, infrastructure, tools and materials are all good and there is nothing you can takeout except what you can note down or capture in mind ;-). They say like they maintain corporate culture but it s not so. It s intermediate between classes and corporate.
The course also well structured but runs very fast. If u like to practice more you can stay long and work fast. But never ever try to learn something out of topic you choose. Once I tried and for that get scolded twice. Still I m confused was I really wrong..!! [oooh .pex]
Interaction with the faculties is good but most of the times you don t get answers for your questions. There are two reasons, first it s their intention to let you try to get your answers and the second is they too have not tried what you are asking about. Priya and Arun are good (they handle front-end topics) and Vinay take you through basics and in case of any problem he ll be the first point of contact. Always a smile attached on his face. I didn t get any chance to interact with Srinath, completely backend stuff.
Arun is very cool and calm, good in technical knowledge and aptitude. He ll help you if u like to explore more and more in SV and UVM. Lot of people have problem with Priya. She has her own strength and weakness. To follow her teaching takes some time and we ll get confuse often (In-fact she confuses us). But she mastered the core skill of verification and just struggling to express it [It s the situation for her in our batch since she is adjusting form work mode to teaching mode, I feel it ll not be a problem form next batch]. Personally they are very good friends.
About the CEO Venki, he has his own attitude and there is nothing you have to worry about it. It s his words You are not here to make any relationships . But one thing really great about him is his personality. He has the good skills to impress students and technically very knowledgeable person [He claim himself that he is Citizen of USA, directly this evening itself he can take flight to go back, he doesn t need VISA to go back to USA. If he is citizen of USA then he is living here in Indian VISA to run business and serving VLSI domain..??]. Whatever it may be, it s great to have a person like him in your professional circle.
Small suggestion to Front-End course structure is that the time allotted for SV and UVM is too tight. For project it is very less. Kindly consider this and refined the schedule.
ADAD-B28: Our batch is first student batch to celebrate ethnic day in RV-VLSI. Thanks to Manjula for supporting and to get permission from Venki. We played lot of basketball too
CLIMAX: If you are looking to have a career [ONLY] in VLSI domain, if u r a fresher or 1 year experience then go for RV-VLSI (I m not comparing it with any institute because I don t find any other worthy institute to compare). There are lot and lot of things to learn (basics) in VLSI domain to have a good career. It provides the platform for you to learn and try out tools. Study materials are good and really you don t need to depend on it. Placements are bonus for you if you perform well and luck permits. Finally knowledge and skill are always worth what you get here for career in VLSI Domain.

I"am thankfull to RV VlSI which helped me to switch my career domain from PSU to VLSI verification by providing training to get industry skills and ample interview opportunities.I completed Frontend RTL verification course here and currently working at mediatek . I would like to take an opportunity to thank Venki sir and Manjula mam for their guidance and Roopa mam who has been great support for us through out the duration of course and made us to understand the verification concepts easily with her good teaching skills and industry knowledge which help us to learn things quickly . If some one want to pursue his career in Verification I would recommend to join RV VLSI for skill development."

Thank you very much for RV VlSI faculty and they helped me to start my new journey in my professional life. I placed in very good company I never ever imagine that I ll go product based but it's possible only by R V VlSI thank you

Its my personal experience i felt that RV-VLSI is not that good institute for one to grab good VLSI exposure because they charge around 1.55 lakhs for back-end courses and its not at all that worthy ,they only provide one tool for whole back-end fields(especially PD and STA) and they simply waste time on a small project of 40 nm for almost 3 months nobody really take care about project phase ,i feel that the faculty is jus working for getting salaries but not really share their knowledge and involve with students and for a fresh college graduate all these ASIC/FPGA topics are not known caz we never learn them in colleges and these ppl behaves like as if we know these stuffs already by simply saying "Find it out" for every question asked ,they are not at all worried about any thing that deals with student things and on the other side there are may institutes which are providing many good tool knowledge along with PD and STA they are providing SYNTHESIS and PHYSICAL VERIFICATION which is good for one to cover almost total back-end portion in ASIC and that too they are charging around 1 lakh which is good for one to join and chances of getting job is more caz they cover almost back-end ASIC and can grab good knowledge of more tools.So one should think before joining RV VLSI design center, they are providing all outdated projects(40nm) which no company is working on ........So my personal suggestion is please do not join RV-VLSI and simply waste your money ,time and knowledge better go for some other institutes which is much more worthy for what you pay and getting lots of tool knowledge. Please think before Join RV VLSI Design Center

Honest review on my experience in RV VLSI for Physical Design.
It's a 6 months course of which the first 2 months are basics ( mostly theory) and then 4 months of hands on project.
They have the latest industry standard tools for physical design and STA and excellent material for the concepts as well.
They won't teach you like how a school would teach, but they give you all the resources which is required and it's up to you what to do with it.
The lab is open from 10am to 8pm, you can approach Mr. Srinath if you have any doubts or questions. You ask him the right questions and he'll give the right answers. The more you interact with him, the more you get to know.
Keep your basics of electronics very strong, utilize the tools and materials provided by them well, read up articles about the technology and subjects and do well in your internal interview.
RV will get some core companies for placements , if you follow the above steps you can surely get a job.
No one can guarantee placement, it depends on the job market and sometimes luck.
I also slacked off little bit and didn't do all the things I mentioned above , but I got placed in a company through RV .
I'm thankful for RV for giving me the opportunity.

It was a good experience with RV-VLSI Design Center.. I have completed ADAD PD course. Here teaching techniques, explaining concepts, exposure to real time scenarios and especially the guidance on interview questions are very helpful. They kept the overall sessions engaging. All the support and guidance provided by Faculties and RV-VLSI Design Center for the course is highly appreciated.

If you want to learn how to make money by playing with people's emotions , their desire , u should join , worst institute , high fees, worst faculty. They will say companies are waiting for u , no placement, fake assurance.

A friend of mine recommended RV-VLSI to me. I was hesitant in applying to RV-VLSI as I had my international masters degree in VLSI.
But later I applied to RV-VLSI and my admission was wait listed as all seats were full.
I'm fortunate that I got an admit to the B29 batch as a seat got vacant. Though I had experience I was missing something technically to get a better position in VLSI. Now I must say without any doubt in my mind that my decision to join RV-VLSI is a correct one and because of the course structure, teaching style and project experience that I gained here I got the confidence to work as a Physical Design Engineer. Thanks RV-VLSI without your support I would not have made it to Mindtree on my own. I'll cherish the interactions I had here with my batchmates and the staff of RV-VLSI. I plan to stay in touch regularly on the RV-VLSI LinkedIn page and look forward to continue this relationship.

I have completed my ADAD Front end course(RTL Verification) from Batch-35. For the people who are passionate about building their career in the VLSI domain, RV-VLSI provides every facility from expert faculty to the industry standard tools. The course is well structured and the lab work allows us to get hands on experience of the tools.
The entire course work related to Front end has been handled by Roopa mam, and she has carried it exceptioally well. Her approaches to make us understand the subtle nuances in coding, using real time scenarios, help us in understanding and implementing the concepts with ease and bug free.
The institute also assists in finding a job, and getting one is entirely dependent on the individual's performance and a bit of luck to get the right opportunity at the right time. I have been lucky enough to get one such opportunity, and performed well to get placed.
All the best for all the aspirants.

RV-VLSI is one of the best place to learn, I have got excellent training and better understanding about the concepts. Full of practical knowledge and trainers are excellent and very knowledgeable. I strongly recommend to join here if you want to get best training in the industry.

Initially, before joining the Rv-vlsi I was having some knowledge about VLSI. However after joining Rv-vlsi, I got good exposure to Full custom in detail and industry environment.

Rv-vlsi does not only create dreams, but also it will helps achieving it.

Working in core domain has always been my interest which I found RV-VLSI was the right place for building my career. I have joined for front end ASIC verification course. Institute helped me to grow as profession and trained us very well in course and now I am placed in a very good company.My special thanks to Ms.Roopa ma'am(Front end faculty)for her continuous guidance,supporting and always inspiring to me.I also take this opportunity to thank Mr.Venky sir and Ms.Manjula ma'am for their continuous guidance and support throughout the course.Finally I'm proud to tell that I'm a student of RV-VLSI.

RV-VLSI provides an excellent learning environment. I completed my course in Front-End (RTL Design and Verification) under the guidance of Ms. Roopa. Her teaching methodology helped me in understanding the concepts well, which boosted my confidence to face interview. Its the best institute for Front-End course. I personally suggest to join RV to prepare yourself for the industry requirements.

I have completed my course in the Physical Design at RV-VLSI Design Center. It provides the best industrial training in the field of VLSI industry. The best feature of the training is they provide a professional atmosphere instead of the student-faculty atmosphere.

It is basically a six-month course in which they cover the following topics.
Basic concepts ---> Digital Design, CMOS, Network Theory.
Training Core Topics ---> STA (Static Timing Analysis), a Scripting languages (Perl, TCL, Shell), Implementation of PNR flow (Floorplan, Powerplan, Placement, Clock tree synthesis, Routing), Overview of ASIC flow.
Tools ---> Prime Time (STA), ICC-II (PNR),
They also cover basic concept of VHDL or Verilog, Full custom Layout.

After completion of training, I have selected by two best companies (MEDIATEK AND INNOVIUM) of the VLSI industry.
Thank you very much to all staff of RV-VLSI Design Center and special thanks to Mr. Srinath Sir for everything.

I have completed my advance diploma in asic design from rv-vlsi-batch20,i got to know about the concepts very clearly and staff were very supportive in clearing the doubts.Exposure to industry standard tools is very good.Its the only institute which caters to the needs of an aspiring vlsi engineer whether it is front end or back end domain.If you are passionate about vlsi then your search for training institute should stop at RV-VLSI

Life changing days of my life I would Recommend to join if you would like to pursue your core dream job.

I pursued full custom from RV-VLSI in batch-37.RV-VLSI is the best institute in India for a course in VLSI. Their training is in such a way that it makes you industry ready so you get placed in the best semiconductor companies. Most of the top companies recruit people from here.I thank the team of RV-VLSI (now RV-SKILLS) for making me realise my potential and helping me land a dream job in one of the fortune 500 companies.I had a wonderful time learning and interacting with such a diverse group of people coming from different backgrounds from across the country. I made wonderful memories, made a lot of friends, had a lot of fun and worked a lot too! I will never forget the days spent at RV-VLSI.

RV VLSI is one of the best hubs for acquiring knowledge, both practically and theoretically, about the VLSI world. I would want to thank the faculty here, especially the CEO, Mr.Venkatesh Prasad, for recognizing my potential, providing me opportunities and the right exposure towards success.

I am from ADEMS'11 batch. It's disappointing that we just learnt c, c ++ and basic OS after paying around 55k. We were promised to work on different platforms and different devices but not fulfilled. The institute has made it clear that it is not job guaranteed so they stand on that word. If students are going with a hope that they would get a job after going to the institute then not a place of thier choice.

If you willing to work in VLSI and want to join any VLSI course, RV-VLSI is the best in them.
It may happen that you may not placed from here but they will give you enough knowledge so that you can place yourself. It is completely industrial type.

Biggest mistake of choosing this institute over C-DAC. 4 month of Verification course is waste. wasted 1.2 lac rupees. Waste teaching and no knowledgeable staff. There is no proper placement officer. If i am paying 1.2 lac to you then your liable to give me training at par with industry. This is not small amount of money for 4 month of course. Overall experience is very bad.

"I have done front end verification(RTL-Verification) course from RV VlSI, teaching staff is very good they have industry experience, lab fecility is good. Teaching faculty is very helpful clarifies all queries. Institute continued the online placement support even during covid 19".

Worst institute I've been ever part of.
I've joined the embedded system course ADEMS11. They'll be very nice to you initially until you pay 55k. That's huge amount. After that they don't care. No placements. Your 55k is gone. If you ask them about it they'll show that paper that you'll be filling while admission which says "placements not guaranteed".
Venky the CEO is the biggest bluff master. They are cheaters of highest level. They have no ideology. Looting is their job..

I suggest all who thought of joining this bogus institute to join VECTOR instead. That's best. I beg you please don't ruin career by joining to this fake institute.
Remember it's by my own experience I'm telling. If you are reading this, make sure you don't join and spread msg that others also do the same.

RV-VLSI Design Center is like a dream come true for me! I was always eager to know how those layout design are done!? And when I got to know that I can actually learn it as per industry standards. The faculties here are so experienced. Infrastructure here is also so amazing.If you are dreaming about a good career believe me go to RV-VLSI. They provide you hands on practical exposure on new techniques. Such a great experience, full of technics, methods, and challenges which take you deep inside the world of core Industries. Great, supportive and lovely faculties who will never let us down. Lovely and kind administrative staff who make the course successful. Thanks, RV-VLSI Design Center. Thanks to my Faculties.

RV-VLSI served as a great platform to enhance my knowledge in VLSI. This institute provided me exposure to the latest industrial tools and requirements. The management and staff provided their constant support and inputs. I have completed physical design course(B39) from here. I am very grateful to the institute for providing placement opportunity even during the COVID19 crisis.

I have completed the ADAD-RTL DESIGN AND VERIFICATION Course here.RV-VLSI DESIGN CENTER provides a very good platform for those aspiring to enter the Core domain.The faculty is very good and motivating.I am proud to have been a part of such good Institute.It is really a boon for the starters to get trained at RV-VLSI before foraying into core domain.

Changing my domain after 3 years of experience in IT didn't sound promising to me untill I consulted Venkatesh Prasad Sir

I am proud to say I am able to make my place in reputed VLSI company today which would be highly impossible without the faculty members and facilities at RV-VLSI

Thank you RV-VLSI for making me learn with confidence!!

I am very shocked with there admission cell.
Please provide proper admission assistance.

I have completed my training in Physical Designing from RV-VLSI Design Center. It was a Six month course. The course covered topics from basic to advanced level. For the first 2 months the focus is totally on learning the basic such as Digital electronics, Linux, Shell scripting, Verilog, Layouts etc. Last 4 months they focussed completely on PD and STA. Got the opportunity to work on tools such as ICC II and Prime Time.
After Completion of training, I got multiple opportunities from RV and finally got placed in Aura Semiconductor. I would like to thank each and every staff of RV VLSL for their constant support and encouragement.

If any individual wants to build a career in VLSI industry and needs a professional guidance, RV-VLSI is the best platform to learn VLSI. It is filled with a best qualified staff and good infrastructure. It provides you the oppurtunity to showcase your skills and increase your knowledge on VLSI domain.
Provided the person must channelize all his heart and efforts for 6 months in learning the skills and then this institute will provide the opportunities so that you land up in your dream job and role.
Resume building session and mock interview aconducted builds the confidence to face any interview the candidate is preparing for. Big thanks to all my trainers and management team.

I have joined backend physical design course in RV-VLSI. I think it's good initiative to start online classes amid COVID -19 instead of wasting time.

We have already covered digital electronics, linux, scripting classes as of now. It's good platform to learn. Now we have started learning verilog.

Faculty is giving us proper time and also taking our doubts one by one.

Morning, we have theory sessions and evening we have assignment discussion sessions. We have poll sessions also which help us to implement the concepts which we have learnt.

As per the management, we will have theory sessions now and we will get minimum 3 months of time in labs once lockdown will be lifted

I am having very good learning experience as of now!! Hope it will continue... Looking to learn more...
Thank you

This is the place where i have gained productive skills which helped me to get into the industry. People will be learning many things here by making lot of mistakes. My way of thinking was completely changed at this place and I am really thankful to the RV-VLSI for giving me such a great platform to build my career. I recommend RV-VLSI for the graduates who are passionate about Electronics and awaiting to start their career in semiconductor industry.

RV-VLSI is a gateway for the career in VLSI domain.
I have joined RV-VLSI for backend course.
Due to this lockdown condition they have planned for an online interactive session. Initially I thought that online classes will not be that much effective but the classes conducted by RV-VLSI changed my perspective towards the online classes.
They are utilising the online platforms very effectively for teaching some of the basic concepts required and even the scripting which is very essential for an VLSI engineer.
Faculties are very cooperative and are helping us in constant learning even during this lockdown period.
They have well scheduled the online classes by providing time for both theory and practical sessions.
I am very thankful to RV-VLSI management for not wasting our time during this lockdown period.

RV VLSI batch ADAD 41they said they are going to start online class of just 20days but now they are going continue to class in online they called it as online blended learning in which you will not able to clarify your doubts we are paying huge amount 1.5 lakh just for learn online class total waste of money and time if we want learn online class they are many other companies which charge only 30k only we need hands on experience on tools not through online more over for online class we need good internet connection (not everyone will have good internet speed) due to bad internet connection some time you will not able to hear something you will discontinue from class and we will miss some part of class and they are not going to repeat it and tools are providing through cloud if got any doubt in middle while executing the tools no one will clarify your doubt if you want just to waste your money 1.5 lakhs and time if you want to join please join offline class not online class if you join online class you will not able to learn anything they will call online interactive class it is just a joke don't believe them just join offline class only not online class

Such a worst Institute and they are money minded people. They dont care about your project as well as placement. They just want money. Their faculty is too bad they never take responsibility of your project even they never ask how is your project going. One of the Faculty Vinutha she dont know the difference between synchronous and asynchronous flip flops. Her attitude is too bad.

RV-VLSI and Embedded system Design is the great platform to get opportunities in core domain. I have joined for Backend physical design domain ,due to covide 19 they have started with online coaching .
Before starting i was very scared how these online classes would go ,but actually its very interesting and useful. Am not finding any difficulties in learning till now.,also these online experience will definitely help me in future.
All the faculties are very helpful,they keep the overall session interactive.
The best part of the training is assignments and polls which really helping me to build my concepts strong and am hoping it will continue till the end of the course. Working in core domain has been always my dream and i hope RV-VLSI is the only right place. thank you.

1:)NAME IS ENOUGH; BUT KNOWLEDGE IS NOT>>>>>MUST READ
Here Firstly You will be fooled by RV-VLSI Management, So please don't Believe on them , after paying money they will forget you and You too will forget Job.
**And While Project time No body will guide you. No body will see you what you are doing is right or wrong.
***If You are interested in learning by Yourself then You can try. BUT INSTITUTION IS NOT WORTH FOR YOUR MONEY.

I was a student of B-12 batch, Advance diploma in Asic Design program conducted by RV-VLSI. The way concepts were taught and made to understand through the lab assignments were amazing. Working on lab assignments and preparing for the module tests helped me a lot to crack the job interview.

Hello Readers,
It s a feedback , but for you it s a suggestion, please read only if your money, time and future is valuable I will give few insights on the RV-VLSI for your better.
We entered into RV-VLSI for an admission on embedded course for my sister.

we spoke to the person who takes care of the admission the response was good, they built in trust saying that all the efforts of providing the good coaching and also the placement will be made, believing the same we took the admission
We heard that the institution was good, we asked the person about the placement for that they showed the count of their students who joined different companies but failed to ask them from which batch they are nor we contacted them for feedback.

Everyone knows that batch contains the combination of all kind of students:
Intelligent, slow learner etc at the initial the coaching was good, however on certain topics took time to understand as and when day passed started facing
Problems related to coaching:
No proper time spent on topics
finding it difficult to understand the topics
Rushing through the topics.
Asking to google on topics which was not understood etc

I (on behalf of my sister )wrote an email to the management saying they dint keep up our hopes and are not satisfied with the coaching, placement etc
I was called to meet the higher authority of the institution to discuss on the same, I met them on one Saturday to discuss on the problems hoping at least now it would get solved
But after a discussion for an hour or more I came to know that they wanted to prove that I am wrong and whatever they are doing is accurate and there are no problems of such.
They responded saying:
Student has a negative feeling.
They lack at personal development skills.
Student was absent for many topics.
Batch is not good etc...
We say them to refer google and get back to us for more information but they don t etc..

They started giving all reasons for every question that I had and every time I had a question back they started deviating from the topic.
With too much of force from students they have sent the students for one co. interview it s a vacancy which was not all related to the Couse they did.
Sad part is they dint even do any project there, dint learn the worth they paid.
We still follow up with them for placement, last time when I called asking for placement they said many have not returned the MSP board they are more worried about the equipment loss but not on the big money we paid nor on the student coaching They have also said we will be sending for placement along with present batch.

To do in your list:
Please collect the contact no. of last 2 batches and contact each person to take the required feedback.
Stick to what they have said during your admission and follow up with management to gain the same.
Your money is more valued please take the required knowledge and learn before you leave.
I would say it s not worth giving such a huge amount.
Please have your parents in loop to understand how things are going, let them meet the in charge over there to discuss on the progress.
Every student take the required feedback once in month to understand where you stand or else at the end they will blame you for everything saying personal skills, negative thoughts, absent.

I regret for the money that we paid and wasted to this institution. We literally lost money.
Eating money and giving nothing to students, institution will never get progressed until and unless they change, every penny that is paid by parents /students is earned through hard difficulty and there curse will pay the institution at the highest. time will teach..

RV-VLSI is a very good institute for experienced people who want to change their domain and get into VLSI industry. I had a very good experience during the whole duration of course. The course is designed very nicely considering the fact that practical knowledge is as important as the basics of any subject. The knowledge gained from this institute related to different topics of VLSI and hands on experience of industry standard tools provided a right direction to my career.
Thanks to all the faculty members and staff of RV-VLSI for their constant support and guidance.

I have completed my advance diploma from RV-VLSI batch-21.i got very good exposure to VLSI industry like what industry needs from a fresher and good thing about RV is first they make us strong in basics. The staff is good and supportive.If you have passion about VLSI this is place for you.

Its a good institute for beginning your VLSI career. Having worked in software for an year after my B.E., I took some risk by leaving the job & put all my belief in RV-VLSI. After finishing the course, the knowledge that I obtained from the faculties of the institute and the efforts that I had put during the course duration helped me get a job in Lantiq Communications. My desired job started thereafter & now I'm growing happily in this field.

RV-VLSI provides you a platform to explore and learn VLSI like no other place. The knowledge on VLSI can be obtained from any media, but the practical exposure and skill required to meet industry standards are the areas concentrated at RV-VLSI. I'd done an ADAD Full-custom course here and indeed gave me exposure to the areas mentioned. I came across RV-VLSI through a friend's referral and now I consider it a privilege to be a part of this institute.

I thank all the faculty/mentors of RV-VLSI for the kind of exposure you have provided to me.

RV-VLSI is one of the best institute for industrial training in VLSI domain, i have joined RV-VLSI for frontend course in rtl verification ,due to lockdown initially our course started online, and the training is going on smoothly , teacher are very good , contents are one of the best they put all there effort to provide training on the best possible way.
As if now online training is going very well we are satisfied.
Batch- 41

As far as I know, RV-VLSI is the best institute for VLSI training. The institute gave me a real time industrial experience like working on a Mentor Graphics tool...... The staffs delivers the concepts clearly which are essential for cracking the interviews. Advanced Diploma in ASIC Design(ADAD) is the better course to do after your Bachelor degree if you want to start your career in VLSI industry.

One of the unique institution of VLSI, where we will get to know what VLSI is all about. Good faculty and excellent teaching with good labs not only supporting the students but motivating all aspects for them to improve is good by which they improve communication skills and loose stage fear.

Nice institute for VLSI training teaching /assistance is less only tool cost in fee for pd guys nice environment for VLSI programmes

I finished the 6 month course in Physical Design at the RV VLSI Design Center. The 6 month course essentially comprises a full 2 months covering the basics of physical design concepts, and a 4 month hands on tenure. Basics covered as part of the course include Digital Design, CMOS, and Network Theory. The basics are followed by training in core topics including Static Time Analysis (STA); scripting languages such as Perl, TCL, and shell; implementation of PNR floorplan, including coverage of floorplan, powerplan, placement, clock tree synthesis, and routing; and an overview of the ASIC workflow. We are trained hands on with the latest and greatest industry standard tools, including Prime Time for STA and ICC-II for PNR. A basic coverage of concepts such as VHDL, Verilog, and full custom layout is also provided. The training material has been excellently prepared to aid understanding of concepts. Complete freedom of learning is provided to all participants of the course, and resources are provided aplenty for us to explore and expand the boundaries of our understanding. The labs are open through the day from 10 AM to 8 PM and the staff including Mr. Srinath are available and easily approachable if we have any doubts or queries whatsoever. In fact, the more we interact with him and the more right questions we ask, the greater our understanding is. While the placement prospects usually boil down to the performance of individual candidates, the institute provides ample opportunities and the who s-who of the industry are present for hiring.

I have completed the RTL DESIGN AND VERIFICATION (front-end Course ) in RV-VLSI DESIGN CENTER which provides good training for those aspiring to enter the Vlsi domain.Here at RV we get exposure to industrial tools being used. With the guidance of experienced faculty , it is a good learning platform before going into Vlsi industry.

I have done RTL Verification(front-end) course from RV-VLSI. The environment here is nice. The teaching faculty Mrs. Roopa Ramaswamy is a great tutor with years of industrial experience. Here, we get exposure to industrial tools which makes it easier to fit in any VLSI company. I got placed in Samsung Semiconductors from RV-VLSI.

I have completed my ADAD (Advanced Diploma in ASIC Design) in RV-VLSI, Batch-21. I liked the way their course is designed, it is more of practical than just theory. they have industry standard infrastructure like access to latest technology, high-end front-end and back-end tools from Synopsys, Mentor Graphics. they have the experienced staff to help you out throughout the course. when it comes to placement.... they don't guarantee any placement it depends openings in the industry, but they will try their best to give you opportunity.

Currently i am enrolled in ADAD-41-RTL Verification program . It has been approximately a month joining this institute since COVID-19 has affected every managment in the world but this institute is providing every support in terms of engineering concepts on every level by making sure no one is left-out in learning and keeps your motivation high. They are really providing high quality teaching, assessment and management of learning with regular and reliable student's doubt clarification!! A very reliable institute for fast learning in VLSI domain.I learned a lot from taking this course component.

I have completed (6+1) month course in RV-VLSI. I would say that`s one of the best decisions taken by me. So, it starts by a written test and an interview on basics and clearing them would allow you to get the admission for the 6 month course, which i didn't clear . So i had to take the 1 month course on basics so that i am prepared for the 6 month course . The 1 month course which was taken by kaushik sir is top class.He is one of the best teachers one would come across . So, after completing the course on basics we can directly join the 6 month course.
FIRSTLY, RV-VLSI IS NOT A JOB GIVING PLATFORM. Its a place where you will be given skill development on (PD,FC,RTL).The skills you learn during these 6 months will eventually make you ready to face an interview and get a job.The course comprises of 3 month basics and scripting languages and next 3 months hands-on experience on the tool.The materials provided by RV-VLSI during the course cannot be found even on the internet ,so utilizing them is necessary .The quality of standards RV-VLSI provides matches the industry ones. I got placed in a good semiconductor company, all thanks to RV-VLSI. After few weeks ,i joined my work i realized that what i`m doing here and what all i have during the 6 month course are same . So, I`m just learning more on the same concepts . So, finally i would like to thank all the staff in RV for everything. This wouldn`t be possible without all you people. SO IF YOU WANT TO GET TRAINED IN PD , I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND YOU RV-VLSI.

I visited RV VLSI design center to get enrolled for a suitable course. The reception was very courteous and the counselor was graceful explaining in detail about the courses offered.

RV-VLSI gives a platform to explore and learn VLSI like no other place. To have access and work on tools and learn concepts that is restricted to only industry in India, is like a privilege. I'd done an ADAD course(B-19) here and I've learnt a lot here both front end and back end (unlike many other institutes). The mentors are also very helpful and guide well.

Thank you RV for the kind of exposure you have given me.

I did my project in Backend design -VLSI here. Being a B.E student i was always interested in pursuing a Master's program in VLSI. When it comes to college, practical knowledge with respect to VLSI is limited. Here in RV-VLSI we get a hands on experience on the latest EDA design tools used in the industry and this has provided me the required launchpad for my career. I thank RV-VLSI for this opportunity.

Hii friends,I am student of B28-Physical Design.RV-VLSI is the best institute for Physical Design.It gives industry level training under the guidance of SRINATH Sir,The Knowledge they gave to the students is very good to get into the industry.One who works hard and gave his/her six months of time to learn and work on physical design flow they can keep 6 months of work experience. because of srinath sir guidance we completed the flow RTL to GDSII.
All won't get placed after six months you have to wait more 2-3 months to get placed.RV-VLSI gives the opportunity for everyone but you have to prove. To crack any interview just follow advise(smart answers) of venky sir.

So if you want job in core VLSI equation is very simple
VLSI JOB = Passion+Hard_work + RV-VLSI

I am really Thankful to RV-VLSI design center for giving me wonderful tool ex-poser related to physical design. The staff was very supportive during duration of course,since the exposure in this domain is very good.I am confident now that I will enhance my expertise further.
Thank you..

I took training at RV-VLSI for Front End Verification(RTL design & verification). RV is a very good platform for those who wanted to kickoff their carrier in core domain. Trainers have industry exposure and they guided us in learning objectives as well as in placements. Iam very thankful to RV for giving me a good opening in carrier.

I've completed my PD training through RV-VLSI.
The course was highly useful and very productive. RV-VLSI has helped me in reaching my dream job. Especially, the faculty over here are highly experienced and made us learn things in a very effective way. It was one of the right decision to apply for this course, but it was even a better thing to opt RV-VLSI. I'm placed in a very good company through RV. My heartfelt thanks to Venky sir for his valuable guidance, Sreenath sir and Manjula ma'am for their continous support.

I have completed my ADAD Back end Course(Physical Design) from Batch-35. Now I am placed in one of the biggest MNC.RV-VLSI is a place for the people who are dreaming about their carrier in VLSI domain. Before I Stepped into RV-VLSI my knowledge regarding VLSI and VLSI-Industry is very poor, but RV-VLSI "course structure is in such a way that we will get full knowledge from Front end to Back end".After completion of my course, I felt like the same teaching methodology should happen throughout in INDIA like as in RV-VLSI.
I just want to give highlights of course structure
1. Each and every student irrespective of their course they will get exposure from Front end to Back end (RTL Design, RTL Verification, Logic Synthesis, STA, Full custom, Physical Design, Physical Verification, and Fabrication).
2.Full Experienced faculty who are having decades of experience in Industries.
3.Hands-on Experience in the best Industry Standard Tools.
4. The best study materials, since those are written by Industry experts, These materials are accessible in RV-VLSI only.
5. The topmost and the best thing about RV-VLSI is it does not only support you in the technical side but also supports you throughout your Interview processes like how to build a good resume and some good interview tips.
6.RV-VLSI is a very well known and famous name in the VLSI industry, companies will frequently visit and conduct their placement drives.

So RV-VLSI is a place for the people who are passionate about learning knowledge in VLSI and for VLSI job seekers.

Thank you and Good luck.

Choose the best where you get things for life not the worst what they make to do in your life

I was a student of Batch 37 ADAD FC. The course helped me in more ways than I can count.The best thing about RV is that it helps inculcate the temperament of trying to find out answers on your own. Tools, circuits, analysis are still easier than having this particular tendency.

The environment is friendly yet professional. The course is extensive focussing not only on your chosen domain, but would also provide a bird's eye view of the entire flow.

The way to get the maximum out of the course is by asking a lot of questions, discussing as much as is possible, not just with your faculty but also with each other. I will reiterate do not expect spoon feeding.

Also, it is not some course for which you can study overnight and you would pass with flying colors. You need to put in the work, each and every day. There is a LOT to learn.

They would try to help you as much as they can. So even if you have a doubt in which course to take up, you can discuss what each course entails and other such details. Be thorough and exhaustive.

However it is important to note that they don't guarentee placement. Because no one can. What they can offer is providing you with the knowledge and skills that would get you a fair fighting chance in a competitive world.

I finished the 6 months course in physical design at RV VLSI design center. This course comprises concepts from basics to advanced level. First two months makes you to comfortable with Digital concepts and linux environment, scripting languages, basics of layouts and later 4 months completely on physical design flow and STA (static timing analysis).We trained on best industrial tools like synopsys ICC II for PNR (PD) flow and Prime Time for STA. Institute working hours from 10AM - 8PM. We can use these working hours effectively and get more benefits from industry tools. After training I have selected for Synopsys and Innovium. Thank you very much to all staff of RV-VLSI Design Center and special thanks to Mr. Srinath Sir for everything.
