Analog Design, Staff Engineer

At Synopsys, we’re at the heart of the innovations that change the way we work and play. Self-driving cars. Artificial Intelligence. The cloud. 5G. The Internet of Things. These breakthroughs are ushering in the Era of Smart Everything. And we’re powering it all with the world’s most advanced technologies for chip design and software security. If you share our passion for innovation, we want to meet you.

• Experience in design of Analog front-end transceivers, voltage/current-mode drivers , delay-locked loop, phase-locked loop, Regulators, Equalizers (CTLE, FFE, DFE), Impedance calibrators, serializer , De-serializers , voltage-controlled oscillator, phase interpolator, bandgap reference, Clock data recovery circuits, Injection locked Loop etc.
• Hands ON experience with spice simulations and various sub-micron design methodologies. Familiarity with automation / Scripting language(TCL, PERL).
• Silicon-proven experience implementing circuits for analog and mixed-signal building blocks. Can micro architect circuit from specifications, can create simulation benches to verify the specification, can understand and debug circuit.
• Experience optimizing CMOS layout to minimize the effect of parasitic resistance and capacitance, and to reduce the effects of local device mismatch and proximity effects.
• Awareness of ESD issues (i.e. circuit techniques, layout). and design for reliability (i.e. electro-migration, IR, aging, etc.).
