The interview process consisted of two technical rounds.

Technical Round 1 focused mainly on digital electronics, FPGA fundamentals, and hardware concepts.

The questions covered topics such as JK flip-flops, synchronous counters, priority encoders, setup and hold time, timing slack, FIFO, and basic FPGA concepts.

I was also asked about my projects.

Technical Round 2 was primarily coding-oriented.

I was asked about coding languages like MATLAB, Python, and C.

My resume was skimmed through again and there were a few questions about it.

I was given a problem involving reading numerical data from a text file and generating a histogram.

The discussion covered different approaches to reading files in Python, string processing using strip(), frequency counting using Counter(), handling floating-point values, and grouping closely spaced values into suitable bins.

The round focused not only on arriving at a solution but also on explaining the reasoning and flow of the approach.

Q: Explain the working of a 3-bit synchronous counter using JK flip-flops
