Physical Verification: Mentor Calibre (DRC/LVS/PEX) or Synopsys IC Validator. Reliability/Sign-off: Experience with Voltus, RedHawk, or similar power/IR integrity tools
5. Multi-Node Design:
Translate and optimize designs across different process geometries, including transition strategies from
Planar (e.g., 28nm)
to
FinFET (e.g., 16nm, 7nm…)
nodes.
6. Simulation & Verification:
Perform comprehensive pre-layout and post-layout simulations, including Monte Carlo, corner analysis, noise analysis, and reliability modeling (EM/IR/Aging/BTI/HCI).
7. Methodology:
Drive best practices in analog design methodology, including the adoption of automated design tools and script-based verification (Python/SKILL/Tcl).
