Verification Internship Interview Experience - Santa Clara, California
Process
I had two phone interviews.
The first round had:
- One analytical ability question.
- One calculating the FIFO depth question.
- One FSM Verilog question.
The next round had:
- One question on sorting algorithms.
- One on synchronizers.
- UVM hierarchy type questions.
Questions
Calculate FIFO depth for the following data rate:
Writing Data = 80 DATA/100 Clock (Randomization of 20 Data's) Outgoing Data = 8 DATA/10 Clock. Burst size = 160
UVM Hierarchy related questions:
Can a Monitor talk to the design? If yes, then how?
How can a sequence item reach the DUT?
What is a synchronizer? What does it do? Why is it used?
Effective way of array sorting?
Was this helpful?
