Job Function: Hardware Engineering
Job Purpose:
Essential Functions:
• Transistor Level design of a variety of Analog/Mixed-Signal blocks such as high-speed ADCs and DACs, Phase-Locked-Loops, signal conditioning blocks like buffers, filters, variable-gain amplifiers, as well as LDO regulators, charge-pumps, bandgap and current references etc.
• Discuss block and system performance with System Engineers and develop adequate circuit topologies and architectures to fulfill the system requirements.
• Perform/supervise the chip floor-planning and layout, post-layout extractions and verifications.
• Perform/supervise silicon characterization, reliability evaluation and the development of APIs for measurements.
• Prepare and maintain project documentation including general specification, circuit description, and measurement reports.
Required Experience:
• Proven track record of Analog/Mixed-Signal blocks integrated circuit design in CMOS technologies with completed projects from architecture to tape-out and silicon characterization.
• Experience with Cadence Virtuoso and Spectre-RF is a must.
• Experience with standard CMOS RF models and/or SOI/BiCMOS technologies. Deep understanding of device modeling; supply isolations and circuit layout for optimum performance.
• Good understanding of system specifications and the ability to work with system architects to translate system requirements into circuit requirements at the IC level.
• Familiarity with system and behavioral modeling using Matlab/Python, System Verilog, Verilog-A/AMS, is a plus.
• Hands-on experience in mm-wave silicon characterization and debug.
Knowledge of Python or C (for test and analysis scripting).
Knowledge of test parameters and test equipment; oscilloscope, VNA, spectrum/signal analyzers, hands-on experience in analog/Mixed-Signal testing.
• Must possess good communication and presentation skills and the desire to be part of a dynamic team
Education:
• BTech/MTech/MS/PhD with 2-20 years of industrial experience in Analog/Mixed-signal IC design.
