The area-efficient PHY provides a low active and standby power solution that supports multiple electrical standards, including PCI Express® (PCIe®) 6.0, 1G to 112Gbps electrical PHY for 400G/800G Ethernet, Cache Coherent Interconnect for Accelerators (CCIX), Compute Express Link (CXL), JESD204C, CPRI, SATA, and other industry-standard interconnect protocols. Using leading-edge design, analysis, simulation, and measurement techniques, the multi-protocol 112G PHY delivers signal integrity and jitter performance that exceeds the standards electrical specifications.

Job Description:

As a part of our team you will be responsible for delivering fully-verified, clean layout. This includes the following: - Crafting sophisticated layout for mixed signal and analog circuits in deep sub-micron CMOS technologies. - Reviewing and analyzing floorplans and intricate circuits with circuit designers. - Running complete sets of design verification tools available on AMS blocks. - Working with the circuit design team to plan/schedule work and coordinate vital layout tradeoffs as needed. - Interpreting LVS, DRC and ERC reports to find the fastest way to complete layout. - Exceeding engineering specifications and expectations by working closely with the circuit design team. - Applying sophisticated CAD tools and mask design knowledge to deliver accurate and robust layout that matches performance, area and power requirements.

• Requirements :
• B.Tech/M.Tech with  1-3 years of relevant experience
•  Proven experience in analog/mixed-signal layout design of deep sub-micron CMOS circuits
•  Experience in implementing analog layouts to achieve tight matching, low noise, and low power consumption. Layouts may include data converters, PLLs, analog blocks, resistors, capacitors, pad IOs, ESD structures, etc.
•  High level of proficiency in custom and standard cell based floor-planning and hierarchical layout assembly.
•  Must understand techniques for leading IR drop, RC delay, electro-migration, self heating and coupling capacitance.
•  Must recognize failure prone circuit and layout structures, have experience with analog and DFM standard methodologies, and proactively work with circuit designer to identify the best approach to solving problems.
•  Deep proficiency in interpretation of DRC, ERC, LVS, etc. reports.
•  Excellent communication skills and able to work with multi-functional teams.
