Identifying Dependencies and Conditions for Rapid Single Flux Quantum (RSFQ) Delays:Develop programs using C++ & Python to determine the sets of conditions and parameters that influence setup time and clock-to-Q delays in RSFQ devices. Goal of project is to create an optimal regression model that simulates various RSFQ cell configurations and predicts their delay times and fault type occurrence.

Aug 2021 - Jul 2022
Understanding Circuit Levelization and Simulating Transistor Configurations to Accelerate the Discovery of Efficient Cells: Designed a MOS transistor simulator from scratch using C++. Program does not require information on transistor sizes and can rapidly simulate ~100 circuits from netlist files and determine output voltage values given all possible input states. Goal of project is to discover area-efficient designs by noting patterns and conditions for redundancies within digital cell configurations. Show less
