Job Description:
Role Overview
As an Integrated Voltage Regulator (IVR) Design Engineer, you will be responsible for the architecture, design, and implementation of high-performance power management solutions directly integrated onto advanced processors (CPUs, GPUs, or SoCs). You will work at the intersection of Analog/Mixed-Signal IC design and Power Electronics to improve energy efficiency and performance in next-generation computing systems.
Key Responsibilities
Circuit Architecture and Design: Develop and refine analog topologies such as Operational Amplifiers (Op-Amps), Bandgap References, Data Converters (ADC/DAC), and Phase-Locked Loops (PLLs).
Design and Simulation: Perform transistor-level design using industry-standard tools (like Cadence Virtuoso). Conduct extensive Monte Carlo simulations, corner analysis, and noise analysis to ensure high yield and reliability.
Layout Oversight: Collaborate closely with layout engineers to guide critical placement and routing, focusing on matching, shielding, and minimizing parasitic capacitance/resistance.
Verification:
Use SPICE-based simulators to verify circuit functionality against rigorous performance specifications (speed, power, gain, etc.).
Post-Silicon Characterization: Bench-test silicon prototypes in the lab to validate performance against pre-silicon models and debug hardware anomalies
Qualifications:
Required Technical Skills
Transistor Fundamentals: Expert knowledge of MOSFET/BJT device physics, small-signal modeling, and aging effects.
EDA Tool Proficiency: Mastery of Cadence (Spectre/Virtuoso), Mentor Graphics, or Synopsys tool suites.
Signal Integrity: Deep understanding of thermal noise, jitter, crosstalk, and power supply rejection ratio (PSRR).
Mixed-Signal Flow: Familiarity with Verilog-A or Verilog-AMS for behavioral modeling of analog blocks.
Qualifications
Education: BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering (EE) with a concentration in Analog IC Design.
Experience: 3 - 7 years of
