Texas Instruments Center
Texas Instruments Centre is established at Dr.N.G.P Institute of technology on 27th February 2014, inaugurated and MoU signed by Dr. C.P Ravikumar, Technical Director – University Relations, Texas Instruments, Bangalore. Since then various Value Added Training Programs such as Analog System Design, Embedded System Design with MSP430 and Hands on training with DSP C2000 has been conducted in this center which creates job opportunities for the students in electronics industries. In addition to this, hands on training with VLSI FPGA are also conducted in this Centre.
Texas Instruments Centre at Dr.N.G.P Institute of technology is also engaged in conduction of Faculty Development Programs, Workshops in the field of Signal Processing and Embedded System Design for students and faculty members. This centre also helps the students in doing their final year projects in the field of electronics.
