Job Description
Description
Seeking an experienced analog/mixed:signal design engineer for developing complex mixed:signal ICs for Timing and Infrastructure applications. The position requires a strong analog mixed:signal design background including a strong history of innovative product and IP definition and design. Depending on experience level, the individual will participate in product roadmaps, definition, technology selection, design, and verification. The individual will have a role in defining and implementing the overall system architecture, designing transistor:level analog circuit blocks, simulating sub:system performance, creating and using behavioral models of blocks and the entire IC, doing and/or supervising physical layout, verifying circuit and chip:level operation and performance, and assisting with tape:out related activities. Responsibilities will also include detailed documentation, silicon evaluation and debugging, production test development support, customer support, and other activities as required for the achievement of high volume production.
Responsibilities
typedisc:
:Digital design specification, design, analysis, and HDL (Verilog) coding
:Behavioral modeling of analog and mixed signal circuits
:Digital/Hybrid PLL design : designing the digital part of the PLL from the overall PLL requirement
:Digital signal processing algorithms and implementation in RTL
:Digital back:end: synthesis, physical implementation (prep for P and R), static timing, scan insertion, etc.
:Verification of digital sub:systems, mixed:signal sub:systems, and the entire chip using a combination of digital models/RTL, firmware, and behavioral models. Test bench development
:Validation of silicon functionality, behavior, and performanceEducation Requirements
A technology:related master 's degree or equivalent training and 3 or more years of analog/mixed:signal design experience developing mixed:signal ICs
An advanced degree may reduce the minimum experience required.
Minimum Requirements
typedisc:
:Masters with 6:10 years of IC design experience or PhD with 4:6 years of IC design experience
:Strong motivation to contribute to all facets of chip design from conceptualization to release to production
:Working knowledge of digital IC circuit design in an HDL synthesis environment
:Working knowledge of digital verification and testing techniques
:Good verbal and written communication skills, positive attitude, desire to learn, and willingness to work on a team
:Working knowledge of UNIX operating systemsAdditional skills (one or more of these are highly desirable)
typedisc:
:Experience with digital design at geometries ranging from 130:40 nm
:Experience with digital IO interfaces such at I2C, SPI, etc.
:Competence in high:level languages (e.g. Matlab, C), scripting languages (e.g. Tcl, Perl, Python, SKILL), and version control systems (e.g. SVN, SOS)
:Working knowledge of System Verilog and/or UVM
:Experience leading a team of digital designers, either formally or informally
:Experience with embedded processor design and firmware/software development, especially for 8051 or ARM cores
:Competence in exploring digital and firmware system/architecture trade:offs such as memory size (ROM, RAM, FLASH, OTP, cache), clock speed
