Job Description

Design the Chip That Secures Tomorrow's Connected World

n

At Texas Instruments, we're building the technology that powers secure ranging, automotive access, and next-gen radar sensing — all through the magic of Ultra-Wideband (UWB). If you're an experienced analog/RF IC design engineer who thrives on full design cycle ownership from architecture to silicon, this is your defining prospect.

n

About UWB & Why It Matters

n

Ultra-Wideband (UWB) is one of the fastest-growing connectivity technologies in the world today:

n

n
- Automotive: Secure keyless entry in BMW, Tesla, BYD — using sub-4ns pulses for precise ranging
n
- Mobile: Integrated in Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy for proximity and location
n
- Safety: UWB radar detecting child presence, breathing, and movement inside vehicles
n
- Security: Advanced encryption + ultra-low duty cycle makes it the most secure short-range radio
n

n

Operating at 7–10 GHz with 500 MHz bandwidth, UWB is redefining wireless connectivity — and TI is at the heart of it.

n

About the Role

n

We are looking for a Lead Analog/RF IC Design Engineer to join our UWB Design Group within TI's RF Transceiver & Connectivity division in Bangalore, India.

n

You will experience the full product design lifecycle — from block architecture and concept design through schematic, layout, extracted simulation, and silicon test & verification — for cutting-edge UWB transceiver SoCs (MCU-integrated).

n

This is a high-ownership, high-visibility lead-level role with one of three specialization tracks:

n

Possible Role Tracks

n

Track 1 — PLL & Clock System Design

n

n
- Architecture and design of Crystal Oscillators, Integer/Fractional PLLs, and LO Distribution Systems
n
- Ensure low phase noise, fast lock time, and robust performance across PVT corners
n
- Design and simulate PLL loop dynamics, VCO,



dividers, and charge pumps
n

n

Track 2 — IF Filter & VGA Design

n

n
- Design of Intermediate Frequency (IF) filters and Variable Gain Amplifiers (VGA)
n
- Optimize linearity, noise, and bandwidth for the receive chain
n
- Support calibration modules — AGC, gain, offset, IQMM
n

n

Track 3 — Transmitter (TX) Design

n

n
- Full TX chain design — DAC, baseband filters, up-conversion mixers, and Power Amplifier (PA) stages
n
- Drive TX pin performance across EVM, output power, spectral mask, and linearity specs
n
- Support calibration and power management for low-power TX operation
n

n

Key Responsibilities (All Tracks)

n

n
- Lead block-level architecture definition in collaboration with systems team
n
- Execute concept design, schematic, layout, and extracted simulations (Cadence Virtuoso)
n
- Perform design verification and silicon bring-up — correlate simulations with silicon measurements
n
- Support test & characterization with the validation team
n
- Collaborate with packaging, PCB, and solution design teams for holistic product delivery
n
- Mentor junior engineers and drive design quality and methodology improvements
n
- Contribute to patent filings and technical publications
n

n

Minimum Requirements

n

n
- Bachelor's/Master's degree in Electronics/Electrical Engineering or related field
n
- 3–10 years of hands-on analog/RF IC design experience with demonstrated full design cycle exposure
n




- Strong proficiency in analog/RF circuit design — LNA, mixers, filters, PLL, PA, or VGA
n
- Experience with Cadence Virtuoso — schematic, layout, and post-extraction simulation
n
- Solid understanding of RF system parameters — NF, gain, linearity, phase noise, EVM
n
- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills across design and silicon
n

n

Preferred Qualifications

n

n
- Experience in UWB, WLAN/WiFi, or microwave frequency (7–10 GHz) IC design
n
- Expertise in PLL design — VCO, charge pump, fractional-N, loop filter
n
- Experience in TX chain design — DAC, upconversion mixer, PA, spectral mask compliance
n
- Knowledge of calibration techniques — AGC, PDET, IQ mismatch correction
n
- Familiarity with low-power design and power management (LDO, low-current modes)
n
- PCB-level understanding for solution and validation board design
n
- Strong verbal and written communication skills
n
- Passion for patent authorship and domain leadership
n
