- Working from SerDes standards to block specifications to identify potential circuit architectures and successful design strategies.
- Collaborating with a cross-functional design team of analog and digital designers from diverse backgrounds.
- Utilizing a full suite of IC design tools supplemented by custom, in-house tools supported by an experienced software/CAD team.
- Ensuring designs meet performance, reliability, and manufacturability requirements.
- Documenting design processes and results for knowledge sharing and future reference.
The Impact You Will Have:
- Contributing to the development of cutting-edge high-speed analog integrated circuits.
- Enhancing the performance and reliability of SERDES IP used in various high-tech applications.
- Driving innovation in analog and mixed-signal design methodologies.
- Collaborating with a talented team to deliver world-class design solutions.
- Supporting the growth and success of Synopsys analog and mixed-signal R&D initiatives.
- Ensuring the seamless integration of analog and digital components in complex systems.
What You’ll Need:
- In-depth familiarity with transistor-level circuit design and CMOS design fundamentals.
- Exposure to SERDES sub-circuits (e.g., TX, RX, adaptive equalizers, PLL, DLL, ADC, BGR, regulators).
- Awareness of ESD issues and circuit techniques for mitigation.
- Familiarity with custom digital design for high-speed logic paths.
- Knowledge of design for reliability (e.g., EM, IR, aging) and layout effects (e.g., matching, reliability, proximity effects).
- Proficiency with custom design tools such as Cadence, HSPICE, HSIM, and Ultrasim.
- Experience with scripting languages for post-processing simulation results (e.g., TCL, PERL, MATLAB).
- Understanding of system-level budgeting for jitter, amplitude, noise, etc.
- Awareness of signal integrity issues, including packaging effects, board parasitics, crosstalk, and noise.
Who You Are:
- A collaborative team player who excels in a cross-functional environment.
- A problem solver with strong analytical skills and attention to detail.
- An effective communicator with excellent documentation skills.
- A self-motivated individual with a passion for continuous learning and innovation.
