Bachelor/ Master Thesis - Implementation of a Latch-Based Register File for RISC-V Cores (f/m/div)

Build your technical foundation: Get familiar with Infineon's code generation framework, RISC-V processor architectures, and register-file implementations Develop latch-based register-file solutions: Investigate latch-based storage architectures and clocking schemes for processor register files, then develop and implement a configurable latch-based register-file solution Evaluate implementation options: Assess different implementation options with respect to timing, area, power, and robustness Analyze design-for-testability: Analyze DFT aspects and compare latch-based and flip-flop based approaches Integrate your work: Integrate the solution into the code-generation framework and generate implementations for various RISC-V cores Verify and validate: Perform functional verification, synthesis, and implementation studies Contribute to research: Contribution to a publication is desired Education: Bachelor's or master's student in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or similar Interests: Bring a background in design, synthesis, timing analysis, and simulation of digital circuits using (System-)Verilog or VHDL Knowledge: Have an understanding of digital design concepts such as latches, flip-flops, clock gating, and DFT Skills: Proficiency in Python, Linux, and Git; programming skills are a must Experience: Ideally, have experience with processor microarchitecture and RISC-V Availability: You are available for an upfront internship to get familiar with some of techniques before the thesis starts Language skills: Fluent English skills, both written and spoken; German is a plus We are on a journey to create the best Infineon for everyone.
