Is it worth doing Mtech in VLSI?

Both fields are good and offer good salaries. IT offers good salaries in the beginning whereas in VLSI you might need to wait for 1–2 years to get better package.

Are VLSI and embedded systems same?

Embedded systems design focuses on writing code that is implemented on a flexible piece of hardware, while VLSI focuses on translating programming instructions into a structure for an integrated circuit.

How difficult is VLSI design?

Is VLSI physical design really tough and is it all around analog electronics? – Quora. No, It’s not. There are actually two kinds of layout design: Analog Layout Design [Mask Designing] : Dealing of pure analog or semi digital.

Is VLSI or embedded systems a better career option?

It is completely a matter of interest because both fields gives you tremendous growth opportunities. Embedded systems has relatively more job options as relatively large no. of companies (big and small) are working in this field. While in VLSI rather big companies are there.

Should I switch from embedded field to VLSI field?

In initial few years of your career you may get chances to even change you field from embedded to VLSI and vice versa, and your experience and love for one of the field will guide you. Well all the advises given above are true, embedded field do have more jobs and VLSI jobs do have better pay packages at the start.

Which courses should I take to become a VLSI engineer?

If you think that you’re good in programming and interest in the transistor wise analysis of the circuit and love for DSP, then go for Digital VLSI courses. You should be taking courses like Digital IC Design, Low Power Electronics, ASIC for DSP, System Design etc.

Why do ECE students prefer VLSI over CSE students?

Even VLSI field is all about programming, but this field requires Electronics knowledge also. That is the reason CSE students could not able to enter into VLSI and industry prefers ECE students. That is reason ECE students think lots of job opportunities in VLSI.
