NIELIT and SCL Mohali Collaborate to Make Indigenous 1.2 µm Process Design Kit Available on eChipHub

Consider the following statements regarding NIELIT's eChipHub Initiative: 1. eChipHub is a comprehensive national platform for semiconductor design education and capacity building. 2. The initiative aims to train nearly 50,000 students in semiconductor design through structured courses. 3. eChipHub has been jointly developed by NIELIT and SoCTeamup Semiconductors Pvt. Ltd. How many of the above statements are correct?

• A.Only one
• B.Only two
• C.All three
• D.None

Statement 1 is correct as eChipHub is indeed a comprehensive national platform for semiconductor design education and capacity building (Fact #4). Statement 2 is incorrect because the fact list states that NIELIT aims to train nearly 30,000 students in semiconductor design through structured courses (Fact #6), not 50,000. Statement 3 is correct as eChipHub has been jointly developed by NIELIT and SoCTeamup Semiconductors Pvt. Ltd.

Consider the following two statements: Statement-I: The indigenous 1.2 µm Process Design Kit (PDK) has been integrated with eChipHub. Statement-II: This integration was made possible through the collaboration between NIELIT and SCL Mohali to make the indigenous PDK available on eChipHub. Which one of the following is correct in respect of the above statements?

• A.Both Statement-I and Statement-II are correct and Statement-II is the correct explanation for Statement-I
• B.Both Statement-I and Statement-II are correct but Statement-II is not the correct explanation for Statement-I
• C.Statement-I is correct but Statement-II is incorrect
• D.Statement-I is incorrect but Statement-II is correct

Statement 1 is correct as the fact list states that the SCL 1.2 µm Process Design Kit (PDK) has been integrated with eChipHub and will be made available through a secure Aadhaar-authenticated download mechanism (Fact #7). Statement 2 explains why this integration was possible, which is through the collaboration between NIELIT and SCL Mohali to make the indigenous PDK available on eChipHub.
