Job Summary: A Mixed-Signal Design Engineer assists on the Analog Design and Analog-Digital interface definition, design, validation, verification and integration of mixed-signal ICs utilizing leading edge technologies with industry standard ASIC tools. Products to be designed/verified may include power management, signal management and mixed signal functions.
MPS products include: switching regulators, sensors, motor control, display drivers, audio amplifiers and power management ICs for fast-growing portable and non-portable markets such as notebooks, cell phones, telecom, digital camera, automobile and network equipment.
Essential Functions: Verification of Analog and Mixed-mode design. Define mixed-signal verification strategy/plan and execute; develop test benches and verification components. Analog-Digital Interface Definition and Documentation. Behavioral Modelling of Analog Blocks. Analysis to verify architectural choices and trade-offs. Validation and Verification of the Analog and Mixed-Signal. Analog IP Definition, Development, Integration and Verification. Layout Design. Analog Mixed-Signal simulations and debugging. Assist the Digital Design Team with Timing, Input/Outputs and DFT Strategy/Constraints. Post-Silicon Validation and Test/Characterization support. Close interaction and collaboration with Analog Design, Analog Layout, Digital Design Engineers, Digital Verification and Digital Physical Engineers. Qualifications: BSEE/MSEE + 10 years of experience in mixed signal ASIC design. Ability to work independently and collaborate with other teams or departments. Solid knowledge of the full mixed-signal ASIC development and Silicon fabrication process. Strong background in transistor level and analog/mixed circuit design. Understanding of device mismatches, noise, linearity and other analog effects. Solid experience in Layout design and knowledge of best-practice techniques. Strong experience with simulation tools such as Spectre, HSPICE, and MATLAB. Proficient in CAD tools and methods: analog and mixed-signal simulation (i.e., Cadence ADE-L/XL), analog regression tests. Understanding and experience in running complex simulations such as Monte-Carlo, noise simulations and stability analysis. Experience running DRC and LVS using Calibre, ICV, etc. Experience running Verilog-AMS mixed-mode simulations. Verilog, System Verilog and Verilog-A coding skills for behavioral modelling. Knowledge of DFT Techniques such as SCAN, LBIST, ABIST and IDDQ. Knowledge of STA and Mixed-Signal Timing and Input/Output Constraints for Syn and P&R. Excellent written/verbal communication skills and strong teamwork/collaboration. Knowledge/Experience with the following is a plus:
