Frequently Asked Questions

LINT is a static code analysis tool that checks RTL code for syntax, style, and logical issues. CDC (Clock Domain Crossing) verification ensures correct data transfer between asynchronous clock domains in a chip.

RTL designers, verification engineers, and anyone working on front-end ASIC/SoC development will benefit from this training.

Industry-standard tools such as Spyglass, Questa CDC, or Verix CDC are typically covered, along with practical labs and case studies.

Basic knowledge of RTL design (Verilog/SystemVerilog) is recommended, but the course can also accommodate beginners with foundational digital design understanding.

It is a hands-on practical training with real-time examples, tool usage, and exercises for maximum learning impact.

Yes, a certificate of completion will be provided upon successfully finishing the course and practicals.

LINT and CDC checks are crucial in front-end design signoff. Mastering these skills makes you highly valuable in design verification and integration teams.

The training usually spans 15–20 hours, delivered in a 1-on-1 or small group format over flexible schedules.
