Job Description
- Design, implement and verify analog/mixed-signal IC designs for various motion sensor products.
- Mentored 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, and 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 initiative 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.
- Different CMOS processes and geometry nodes.
