Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI)
Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Civil and Environmental)
VLSI refers to the process of creating integrated circuits by combining millions or billions of transistors onto a single chip, forming the basis of modern microprocessors, memory chips, and other semiconductor devices. VLSI engineers design, simulate, and verify chip layouts using specialized tools and hardware description languages like Verilog or VHDL. It is a core discipline within electrical engineering and the semiconductor industry.
