United States, Texas, Austin 
19003232

13.06.2024
Description
A deep understanding of transistor operation and device physics as applied to analog and digital IC design. Possess strong circuit analysis skills (e.g., AC/DC circuit analysis, small signal circuit analysis, feedback loop theory, statistics, etc). A good knowledge of basic analog circuit building blocks (e.g., band-gaps, bias circuits, op-amps, switched-cap circuits, regulators, etc.) digital building blocks (e.g., latches, flip-flops, logic gates, etc.), and feedback/compensation techniques. Strong knowledge in digital circuit clocking, design, verification and analysis. You will know how to use of Cadence schematic and layout entry tool (Virtuoso). Spice simulation tools (e.g., HSpice, Spectre). Knowledge and/or experience in any of the following areas: High-speed circuits, Low power and low noise design techniques. High precision techniques in presence of device mismatch. Also, knowledge of C/Matlab/VerilogA modeling of AMS blocks. Know scripting languages (e.g., Perl, Python). Use of spectrum analyzers, oscilloscopes, signal generators, etc. Static timing analysis.
Key Qualifications
  • Perform transistor-level feasibility study and modeling for various analog/mixed-signal circuit blocks
  • Designing blocks and documenting design simulation and verification towards formal design reviews
  • Drive mask design to implement layout views of designs and drive layout reviews
  • Post-layout and top-level simulations to validate top-level integration
  • Run design verification flows (e.g., electro-migration, IR drop, LEC, timing, etc) to verify design is ready for tape-out
  • Participating in production and bench-level test plans
  • Taking lab measurements to validate performance compliance with the spec
  • Participating in reviewing yield/lab test results to drive bug fixes
