Hardwired - A VLSI Hackathon

Silicon, the VLSI Forum of PESU, invites you to its star event!
Design. Debug. Dominate.

A design-first, CTF-style hardware hackathon with open ended solutions, built for real problem-solvers. Decode challenges, race against time, and turn logic into victory! 
Hardware platforms including FPGAs, will be available throughout the event, wherever necessary. Team up, think sharp, and prove you’ve got what it takes to own the silicon.

Register now! (LIMITED SLOTS!). Cash Prizes will be awarded to the winners! https://forms.gle/kDboRGAUUggkBqZ37
Last date for registration - 15th February, Sunday. No registration fee!
 

Event Schedule:

• Day 1 (21st Feb | 9:00 AM – 5:30 PM): CTF-style design challenges, problem-solving, and hardware-enabled implementations
• Day 2 (22nd Feb | 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM): Knockout rounds for shortlisted teams, advanced challenges, and final evaluation

Eligibility:

• 4th & 6th semester students from RR and EC campuses of all branches.
• Teams of 3–4 members
• Inter-campus teams (RR ↔ EC) are allowed

Tracks:

• Digital VLSI Design
• Analog Design
