Analog Mixed Signal IC Designer (4-10 Years) – Bangalore
Job Description
Design, implement and verify analog/mixed-signal IC designs for various motion sensor products.
Mentor junior engineers in all areas of product design.
Evaluate system-level trade-offs for next-generation sensor interfaces and identify IC architectures in collaboration with the MEMS design team to meet performance requirements.
Interface with digital design engineers to define and optimize sensor architectures and digital signal processing circuits.
Guide layout engineers on physical design. Review layouts and provide feedback for optimal layout design.
Tape-out designs on-schedule adhering to required specifications.
Evaluate and validate designs in the lab and identify any deviations from requirements and implement corrective actions.
Perform other duties and tasks that may be assigned from time to time.
Desired Skills and Experience:
Minimum Bachelors/Masters in EE + 4 years of industry experience in analog or mixed-signal CMOS circuit design.
Thorough understanding of analog and mixed-signal systems and micro-architecture trade-offs. Demonstrated ability to develop micro-architectures and high-level Matlab system models.
Proven track record of designing low-power, low-noise, precision CMOS analog circuits for high-volume manufacturing.
Strong skills in designing various analog/mixed-signal blocks including MEMS sense amplifiers, Bandgap References, Regulators, Charge pumps, ADCs, Oscillator circuits, PLLs.
Experience as IC lead on at least one project with demonstrated success.
Experience with design for test approaches and development of characterization and production test plans.
Lab and test equipment skills for the debug, characterization, and validation of designs.
Diligent, detail-oriented, and willing to take the initiatives for process and flow improvements.
Develop DACs; Headphone, Line and Speaker drivers; Proprietary Low-Voltage Line Drivers; DC/DC Converters; and other various supporting circuitry in advanced CMOS processes.
Participate in all aspects of the design, from concept to production silicon.
Involved in the specification, architectural development, transistor-level design, SPICE, Matlab and Verilog (SystemVerilog, Verilog-A, Verilog-AMS) modeling and simulation, layout supervision, post-layout simulation, chip-level verification, and lab validation.
Develop PLL and low-jitter filters.
Hands on experience with Audio CODEC applications and circuits.
