Analog & Mixed

About the Role

You will be part of our team in Bengaluru responsible for IO (Input/Output) solutions for next generation SOCs (System on Chips) in advanced CMOS technology nodes. You will work on IO solutions for SanDisk ASIC controllers under guidance of senior team members to meet specifications and product requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• Work closely with the team and actively participate in technical discussions and reviews.
• Handle assigned tasks independently with minimal supervision.
• Pro-actively get design issues/problems solved before they escalate.
• Contribute to or propose innovative design solutions and design methodologies.

Tech Stack & Requirements

You should have knowledge in IPs such as SSTL, LVDS, I2C, POD IOs, PVT calibration, HV tolerant and Fail-safe IOs, Crystal oscillator etc. Knowledge of RX (Receive) and TX (Transmit) design architectures for high speed applications such as DDR4 is essential.

• Added advantage: Good understanding of ESD phenomenon, familiarity in ESD circuits design and associated ESD guidelines.

Tools & Simulation

• Familiarity with tools such as Cadence Virtuoso/Synopsys custom compiler/Hspice/Spectre/Finesim including statistical simulation methodologies is a plus.
• Experience in Mixed-mode simulation and analog/digital co-simulation will be of added advantage.

Modeling & Process Knowledge

• Creating EDA models such as Verilog model, Liberty etc. Experience is advantageous.
• Should have deep understanding and working knowledge of CMOS process including FINFET technologies such as 16nm and the associated DSM (Design Specific Modeling) issues.
