VLSI workflows, not generic Python
Every chapter is anchored in a real RTL/DV task — regression managers, UVM log parsers, coverage analyzers, STA report parsing, RTL generation. No web, Django, ML, or data-science content.
Interview-ready depth
Tiered interview module plus per-chapter interview weighting — regex log parsing, subprocess EDA-tool driving, parallel regression, and the automation questions actually asked of DV and EDA-automation engineers.
Automate → parse → report
From fundamentals on simulation metadata to subprocess EDA-tool automation, parallel regressions, robust log/coverage parsers, and HTML dashboards — the full Python automation loop a verification team owns.
