Conductor Laboratory tapes out 175 student

The Semi-Conductor Laboratory (SCL) in Punjab’s Mohali has successfully taped out 175 student-made chip designs at its 180 nm technology node, while 79 other chip designs created by Indian students have been taped out at overseas foundries. Sharing the information in Parliament, the government said India’s focused attention on semiconductor development has led to the training of over 68,000 students in chip designing and the successful tapeout of a total of 254 designs made by them — 175 at SCL Mohali and 79 at overseas foundries. Taping out a chip means completing the final design phase of an integrated circuit…
