I’m looking for a VLSI-savvy freelancer who can take a simple circuit concept and turn it into a clean, ready-to-fabricate design. The task is firmly in the “basic” range, so I don’t expect multi-million-gate SOC complexity—just a well-thought-out block that follows good layout and timing practices. Here’s what I need: • Capture the schematic from my written spec (a brief netlist and functional description will be supplied). • Produce a layout that meets foundry DRC/LVS rules; Cadence Virtuoso, Mentor, or an open-source alternative is fine as long as you state the PDK you’re comfortable with. • Supply simulation results that verify the target functionality and basic timing. SPICE, Spectre, or ngspice are all acceptable. • Provide a concise hand-off package: schematic files, layout GDS/OASIS, simulation decks, and a short report explaining assumptions, corner cases, and any trade-offs made. I can answer questions quickly and will review each milestone within 24 hours, so communication should be straightforward. If you bring accuracy, clear documentation, and a collaborative spirit, this should be an easy win for both of us.

Hi there, I can handle the end-to-end implementation of your circuit concept—from schematic capture and custom layout to full DRC/LVS physical verification and corner simulations. Here is how I will execute this block: Schematic Capture & Sizing: Translate your functional spec and netlist into a clean, parameterized schematic, setting appropriate transistor sizing and biasing for optimal timing and power. Layout & Physical Verification: Perform DRC- and LVS-clean layout adhering strictly to foundry rules (comfortable working with open-source PDKs like SkyWater 130nm / IHP 130nm via Magic/KLayout or Cadence Virtuoso/Mentor environments). Pre- & Post-Layout Simulation: Run functional verification and timing analysis across nominal conditions and process/voltage/temperature (PVT) corners using SPICE/ngspice/Spectre. Complete Hand-Off Package: Deliver clean GDSII/OASIS files, source schematics, simulation decks, and a concise technical report detailing timing margins, parasitic extraction observations, and layout trade-offs. I maintain clear, structured documentation and will share intermediate testbench waveforms and layout snapshots for fast 24-hour review turnarounds. Looking forward to reviewing the netlist and getting started on the block! Best regards, Iftikar

I’m interested in this project as it’s quite close to my current experience. I’ve been working in IC design/CAD for 5+ years, including schematic and layout, simulation, DRC/LVS/PEX, and PDK development. I’ve worked with Cadence Virtuoso, Calibre, PVS and KLayout, and also contributed to open-source PDKs like SG13G2, SkyWater130, and GF180MCU, so I’m comfortable taking a design through layout and physical verification. A few things I’d like to know before starting: * Which PDK/process are you planning to use? * What type of circuit is it, and roughly how large? * Do you already have the schematic/netlist, or is the design itself part of the work? * Do you need post-layout simulation/PEX as well? If you can share a bit more about the circuit and expected deliverables, I’d be happy to discuss the best way to handle it.
