Job Requirements
Post-Silicon Validation Architect (Display Team)
Role Overview
The Post-Silicon Validation Architect defines the validation strategy, test plans, and automation frameworks to bring up and qualify next-generation display chips. This role bridges hardware design, FPGA prototyping, and production software to ensure the silicon meets all functional, performance, and reliability targets before mass production.
Key Responsibilities
Architecture & Strategy: Define the post-silicon validation architecture, methodologies, and test strategies for display chipsets.
Bring-up & Debug: Lead the bring-up of silicon, reference boards, and FPGA prototypes, isolating complex hardware and software defects.
Test Development: Create comprehensive test plans covering display protocols, frame buffer management, pixel pipelines, and image processing algorithms.
Automation: Design and scale automated test frameworks to interface with high-speed validation equipment.
Cross-functional Collaboration: Partner with Design, Pre-Silicon Verification (SV/UVM), Emulation,
and Firmware teams to root-cause chip bugs.
Required Technical Skills
Display, Video, & Pixel Processing
· DSI2 & MIPI: Deep knowledge of MIPI DSI-2 physical and protocol layers for high-speed mobile and automotive displays.
· Pixel Formats & Formats: Mastery of raw pixel data formats, including PACKED YUV444 and RGB data streams.
· Bit Depth & Color: Expertise in validating variable bit depths (e.g., 8-bit, 10-bit, 12-bit per channel) and their impact on color fidelity. [1]
· Scaling & Processing: Solid understanding of image processing pipelines, specifically upscale and downscale filtering engines.
· Display Technologies: Deep knowledge of display panels, display drivers, demura (mura correction) algorithms, and color management systems.
Hardware Validation & Equipment
· Introspect Technology: Hands-on experience using Introspect SV series systems (or similar MIPI protocol analyzers/exercisers) for protocol con
