Circuit Design Automation with Python, SystemVerilog, and AI

Modern hardware engineering demands faster design cycles and smarter verification. Traditional manual circuit design is shifting toward automation, leveraging programming and data-driven methods to optimize performance. This text-based course guides you through the fundamentals of automating analog and digital circuit design. You will understand how to use Python and SystemVerilog to automate design workflows, verify complex AXI-Lite IPs, and apply basic AI optimization algorithms to hardware parameters like Low-Dropout (LDO) regulators. What you'll learn: - Understand foundational concepts of analog and digital circuit design, including LDO regulators and AXI-Lite protocols. - Apply Python scripting to automate Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tool workflows and parameters. - Build testbenches and verify digital IP designs using SystemVerilog. - Implement basic AI and machine learning optimization algorithms to automate circuit sizing and performance tuning. - Design robust verification environments for industry-standard bus protocols. Starting with key terminology and hardware design fundamentals, this written course transitions into practical scripting with Python and hardware description with SystemVerilog. You will explore step-by-step written explanations and code snippets that demonstrate how to automate and optimize circuit parameters. This program is designed for beginner hardware engineers, students, and software developers interested in electronic design automation, with no prior automation experience required.
