Job Overview
We are looking for an experienced I/O Circuit Design Engineer to design, develop, simulate, and optimize CMOS-based I/O circuits for advanced semiconductor technologies.
The ideal candidate will have solid expertise in transistor-level circuit design, I/O interface circuits, electrical reliability, and analog/mixed-signal simulation. The role involves developing robust I/O solutions that meet performance, power, signal-integrity, and reliability requirements across different process, voltage, and temperature conditions.
Key Responsibilities
1. I/O Circuit Design
• Design and develop transistor-level I/O circuits for standard and high-performance semiconductor interfaces.
• Develop I/O buffers, input receivers, output drivers, and associated interface circuitry.
• Work on CMOS I/O architectures supporting different operating voltages and interface requirements.
• Design and optimize circuits for parameters such as drive strength, propagation delay, output impedance, power consumption, and noise immunity.
• Support interface designs involving GPIO, LVCMOS, LVDS,



and other parallel or high-speed interfaces, depending on project requirements.

2. Analog and Mixed-Signal Circuit Development
• Perform transistor-level schematic design and circuit implementation.
• Develop and optimize circuit architectures to meet electrical specifications.
• Analyze circuit behavior under different operating conditions and loading scenarios.
• Work on voltage-level compatibility, input thresholds, output characteristics, and signal integrity.
• Collaborate with analog, digital, library, and physical-design teams to deliver robust I/O IP.

3. Circuit Simulation and Verification
• Perform pre-layout and post-layout simulations using industry-standard EDA tools.
• Conduct corner simulations across process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) conditions.
• Perform Monte Carlo and mismatch simulations where required.
• Analyze timing, power, noise margins, leakage, and electrical per
