Mastering PERL Scripting

Perl has been one of the most widely used scripting languages in the semiconductor industry for design automation, verification automation, CAD flows, regression management, report generation, and productivity enhancement. Despite the emergence of newer scripting languages, Perl continues to play a significant role in many established ASIC, FPGA, and SoC development environments where large-scale automation is critical.

This course is not a basic introduction to Perl syntax. It is a comprehensive program designed to help learners develop strong Perl programming expertise with a focus on real-world engineering and automation applications.

Learners will gain hands-on experience developing automation solutions similar to those commonly used in semiconductor design, verification, and CAD environments. Through practical examples and industry-inspired projects, participants will learn how to process large volumes of data, automate repetitive engineering tasks, generate meaningful reports, and build reusable scripting frameworks.

By the end of the course, participants will possess the knowledge and confidence required to independently develop sophisticated Perl-based automation solutions and contribute effectively to engineering productivity and workflow optimization initiatives.
