Analog Devices (NASDAQ: ADI) designs and manufactures semiconductor products and solutions. We enable our customers to interpret the world around us by intelligently bridging the physical and digital worlds with unmatched technologies that sense, measure and connect.

 

In this job you will work within the Wireless Communications Business Unit developing highly sophisticated high-speed Analog-to-Digital Converters for advanced wireless applications.

 

Qualifications

• Degree in electrical engineering or closely related discipline and 5+ years of industry experience. Masters degree or higher is very desirable.
• Strong engineering communication and collaboration skills
• Design experience in several of: Switched capacitor circuits, amplifiers, buffers, comparators, biasing circuits, and other converter circuits are highly desirable. Successful candidate will have practical experience in bringing blocks or complete paths from design through layout to production.
• Good understanding of ADC architectures, non-idealities, digital correction of analog impairments and ADC calibration algorithms is highly desirable.
• Demonstratable understanding of deep submicron technologies. Understanding of electromigration, aging and technology limitations is required. Experience in advanced FinFET process nodes is a plus.
• Fluency with industry standard design tools including Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre, EMX , Heatwave, etc.
• Understanding of RF microwave concepts including impedance matching, power transfer, isolation, transmission line design, s-parameters. Experience with RF design tools such as ADS, Momentum a plus.
• Test and debug experience are required. Experience with RF test equipment, strong lab skills and silicon evaluation are very desirable.

Responsibilities

• Perform feasibility, conceptual and detailed design of mixed-signal Integrated Circuits (ICs) in advanced FinFET CMOS technologies.
• Develop creative solutions to demanding problems. Propose new architectures and methods to overcome customer problems. Develop or verify algorithms for analog/mixed-signal processing.
• Move beyond schematic design to anticipate tradeoffs in physical design and block interaction. Floorplan and guide physical design (layout) engineers to deliver implementations that meet requirements.
• Evaluate customer requirements and translate information into both chip level and block level specifications. Evaluate architecture to better solve customer problems.
• Assist product engineers with silicon validation/debug by conducting measurements and analyzing lab data
• Working with RF engineers on laminate design including ball-out planning, RF performance, isolation and matching and overall verification.
• Create and present design/evaluation review documentation while working with engineers in geographically disparate locations.
