- 1. Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) design is the process of creating integrated circuits (ICs) with millions of transistors and electronic components on a single silicon chip. VLSI design involves various stages such as design specification, logic design, circuit design, physical design, and testing. Engineers use specialized software tools to design and simulate the ICs before sending them for fabrication. VLSI design plays a crucial role in the development of modern electronic devices such as smartphones, computers, and IoT devices, enabling higher performance, lower power consumption, and smaller form factors.
