Screening Task : Part A MCQ test on C, assembly programming languages, microcontroller architecture.
A computer based test consisting of multiple choice questions(MCQs) will be conducted. Questions in the test will be from the following areas:
- C programming language
- Assembly programming language basics
- Microcontroller architecture basics and peripherals like Timers, ADC
- Interface protocols: I2C, SPI, UART, USB
- Digital logic design and Hardware Descriptive Language (HDL) basics
Technical Requirements:
C, assembly, microcontrollers, Interface protocols, basics of digital logic design.
Screening Task : Part B Simulate circuits using NGHDL feature.
Simulate 2 circuits using NGHDL feature of eSim. Write a VHDL code for your logic design element(s), and using NGHDL feature of eSim, use these elements to simulate digital or mixed-signal circuits. Examples selected should not be a copy/variation of examples supplied with the eSim software. With every example you must enclose a minimum one-page PDF document which contains the abstract of the project.
Technical Requirements:
- Digital Logic Design
- VHDL
Procedure to Submit:
- For the format of the abstract, you have to follow the format described here: https://static.fossee.in/esim/template/templateAbstract_CSP.docx
- Create a GitHub repository and upload your eSim projects on this repository, submit the link to your repository before the deadline. Send the link of your GitHub repository to contact-esim@fossee.in with the subject line FOSSEE Fellowship 2021 screening task submission.
- Refer to the NOTE section at the end of the page for deadlines.
Evaluation Criteria:
Following factors will be considered while evaluating the submitted projects:
- Both the tasks are mandatory.
- The performance of the candidate in the MCQ test as well as the submitted projects will be used as a criterion to select the interns.
- Weightage for selecting candidates will be as following:
- 70% on the score obtained in the MCQ test [Screening Task: Part A] and
- 30% on the projects submitted [As a requirement of Screening Task : Part B] .
