GLS 1-1 Training Overview
This 1-on-1 training program is designed to equip engineers with in-depth knowledge and practical expertise in Gate-Level Simulation (GLS), a critical stage in the ASIC and FPGA design verification flow. The course bridges the gap between RTL simulation and post-synthesis/timing-aware validation, helping participants understand how timing, synthesis artifacts, and real gate-level behavior affect functional correctness. Delivered in a personalized format, the training adapts to the learner’s pace, current skill level, and project needs. Whether you're working toward signoff or trying to debug difficult setup/hold timing violations, the course provides the tools and insights needed to confidently navigate GLS environments.
- GLS basics, Synthesis & STA basics
- Setting up GLS TB environment, testplan, force files, unit delay and timing simulations
- Setup time, hold time, SDF, timing corners, SDF annotation
- GLS good practices, Choosing right frequency, Synchronizer flops
- Debugging GLS failures – Log file debug, X-trace, data flow and schematic tracing
- GLS hands on project – Unit delay and timing simulations, TB bring up
Key Features
Who All Can Attend This GLS 1-1 Training?
This training is ideal for professionals involved in digital design, verification, and backend implementation who want to strengthen their understanding of post-synthesis simulation and timing-aware debugging. It is especially useful for those preparing for tape-out or working in signoff-critical environments.Pre-requisites To Take GLS 1-1 Training
- Basic understanding of digital design concepts and RTL coding (Verilog or VHDL)
- Familiarity with simulation tools (e.g., ModelSim, VCS, or Questa)
- Knowledge of synthesis flow and netlist generation is helpful
- Awareness of timing concepts like setup, hold, and clock skew
- Prior experience with RTL verification is beneficial but not mandatory
- Comfort with reading and analyzing waveform outputs (optional but recommended)
High Demand for GLS 1-1 Training
Know about the Growing VLSI industry
ASIC Design Engineers with GLS expertise are preferred for signoff-level readiness and netlist validation.
Those who understand back-annotation, timing closure, and synthesis-to-simulation mismatches command higher salaries.
Mid-level engineers who can independently run and debug GLS regressions are often fast-tracked into lead positions.

Gate-Level Simulation (GLS) is a crucial step in verifying the timing and functional integrity of digital designs post-synthesis. However, many engineers struggle with netlist-related behaviors, timing violations, and waveform debugging due to a lack of structured training. This 1-on-1 GLS training bridges that gap by offering tailored, real-world instruction focused on both the theoretical and practical aspects of GLS. Whether you're facing last-minute simulation issues before tape-out or want to build strong foundational knowledge for future designs, this training provides the skills and clarity needed to perform GLS with confidence and precision.

Frequently Asked Questions
GLS is a type of simulation done on a synthesized netlist (post-synthesis design) to verify the timing and functional correctness of the digital circuit, especially with real-world delays and setup/hold timing checks.
This training is ideal for RTL designers, verification engineers, DFT and STA engineers, and anyone involved in ASIC/FPGA design signoff or netlist validation.
No prior experience is necessary. The training is personalized and starts from the basics, gradually moving to advanced topics based on your current knowledge level.
The training is tool-agnostic but can include examples using industry tools like ModelSim, Synopsys VCS, Cadence Xcelium, or Mentor Questa, based on the participant's needs.
Yes, the course covers both zero-delay (functional) and timing-annotated (SDF-based) GLS flows.
The training is interactive and hands-on, with waveform analysis, testbench discussions, and debugging sessions using real-world GLS scenarios.
Yes, a digital certificate will be provided after completing the training.
Absolutely. Since it’s a 1-on-1 session, the course can be tailored to focus on your specific project challenges or toolchain.
Training is conducted live online via platforms like Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet, with shared screens, interactive demos, and recorded sessions upon request.
The duration is flexible—ranging from short sessions (3–5 hours) to in-depth training modules over several days, based on your goals.
Yes, while the core format is 1-on-1, group sessions or team batches can be arranged with customized scheduling.
GLS is a critical skill for ASIC and FPGA engineers, especially for roles involving signoff, timing closure, or tape-out. Mastery in GLS makes you highly valuable in the semiconductor industry.
