Few questions on digital logic such as finding minimum gates required for a given truth table, sequence detector, generate AND gate from 2 input mux etc.
There were 1 screening and 6 panel rounds and it was difficult especially UVM part also they AMBA protocols basic design questions like fsm fifo and all and more focus on constraints
