SemiXthon

SemiXthon is a 10-hour offline hardware hackathon organized by Semicon DTU, in collaboration with the Vinod Dham Center of Excellence for Semiconductor and Microelectronics, Delhi Technological University.

The hackathon focuses on hands-on innovation in electronics, semiconductors, and hardware systems, aimed at providing a platform where students can ideate, design, and demonstrate impactful engineering solutions. SemiXthon emphasizes real-world relevance, practical implementation, and system-level thinking, encouraging participants to build functional, scalable hardware projects.

Participants can compete in the following electronics-centric tracks:

• Sustainable & Green Electronics
• Healthcare
• Human Device Interface
• Communication (Defense & Mission-Critical Systems)
• Digital Design & VLSI (Backend Focused)
• Open Track (Any innovative electronics hardware)

The event consists of three rounds:

• Online submission via Devfolio (PPT proposal)
• Offline presentation & demo (functional prototype and presentation)
• Final evaluation & advanced demo

SemiXthon aims to:

• Spark innovation in semiconductor and electronics design
• Bridge theoretical knowledge with real hardware implementation
• Expose participants to industry-level problem solving
• Build a community of hardware innovators
