? Hands-on experience in developing/understanding building block schematics, memory schematics, running circuit simulation with spice simulators, DC analysis, transient analysis.
? Experience in deciphering circuit behavior from schematics.
? Familiarity with circuit characterization, timing libraries - files and formats, timing arcs
? Experience in Verilog MOS switch level models and netlist simulation with zero delay, unit delay, and path delay simulations.
? Familiarity with static timing analysis
? Hands-on experience in Gate level simulations with SDF back annotation.
? Debug SDF annotation issues and ensure good annotation coverage.
? Hands-on experience with latch based designs and their timing requirements.
? Debugging Gate level simulation failures and root causing the failures to actual circuits. Accomplish what-if analysis by doing the change and making sure the fix can solve the issue.
? Hands-on knowhow of System Verilog Assertions to specify expected design behavior
? Familiarity with UVM is a plus
? Solid communication skills, with the ability to convey complex technical concepts to other design peers in verbal and written form.
? Gate level simulation, spice correlation, Debug failures and provide fixes at gate or transistor level - as applicable.
