iChip 3.0 is a 7-hour FPGA Innovation Hackathon designed to challenge participants’ skills in Verilog coding, debugging, and digital circuit design. Organized under CASS Convergence 2025, this event provides a hands-on platform for students to explore the journey from code to chip implementation. Participants will debug, design, and deploy digital circuits on FPGA boards, competing in multiple challenge rounds. The hackathon not only tests technical knowledge but also encourages teamwork, creativity, and time-bound problem-solving. With limited registrations on a first-come, first-serve basis, the event promises intense competition, innovation, and exciting prizes for winners.
