Hi! I'm Abhishek Vashist,

I focus on open source RTL/ASIC Design and ML Applications

Ph.D. @ Rochester Institute of Technology, USA

  • Computer Engineering

Google Scholar: scholar-abhishekvashist

Apple, CA, USA

  • Pixel IP Design Engineer

In this blog, I present my projects and expand on the technical details. Below are some of the featured projects and publications. Visit Blog and GitHub for open-source designs.

Custom RISC Processor RTL Design

Implemented a 16-bit custom RISC ISA architecture with a 2-way set associative Cache memory using Verilog HDL. Testing is performed on FPGA board. Additionally wrote a Python Assembler for the ISA and implemented MNIST digit classification on the processor.

Machine Learning based 60 GHz Wireless Localization

Best Paper Award at IEEE International Conference on Consumer Electronics (ICCE) 2020, Las Vegas, USA.

Synchronous FIFO

Design and verification of synchronous FIFO using SystemVerilog Assertions (SVAs). Formal verification using open-source SymbiYosys tools. Final synthesis on FPGA board
