CompanyAnalog Devices
LocationCentennial, CO, USA, Colorado Springs, CO, USA
Salary$141075 – $211613
TypeFull-Time
DegreesMaster’s, PhD
Experience LevelSenior, Expert or higher

Requirements

  • Master’s degree with 7+ years of experience or Ph.D. with 4+ years of experience is typical
  • Digital signal processing experience and understanding
  • Design and verification experience with complex digital designs using Verilog/SystemVerilog
  • Experience architecting and planning designs at the system level, taking conceptual product definitions and translating to design implementations
  • Knowledge of advanced mixed-signal SerDes transceiver architectures
  • Excellent knowledge in communication theory
  • Excellent knowledge in Matlab/Simulink and SystemVerilog real number modeling
  • Understanding of signal-integrity concepts, electrical channel modeling, clock and data recovery concepts, LMS adaptation algorithms
  • Working knowledge of analog circuit design trade-offs
  • Familiarity with lab measurements and silicon debug
  • Familiarity with C/C++ programming is a plus

Responsibilities

  • Define block and system level architectures for next generation SerDes PHYs
  • Write block specifications and track execution at circuit-design level
  • Develop and maintain end-to-end Matlab/Simulink system models
  • Develop and run block-level DSP simulation testbenches. Apply this to system-level simulations to evaluate architectural tradeoffs.
  • Use Verilog/SystemVerilog to design digital signal processing blocks
  • Develop algorithms for adaptation and calibration of mixed-signal circuit blocks
  • Communicate effectively with circuit-designers and verification engineers to incorporate circuit nonidealities in system models
  • Work across the digital/analog boundary, including support of mixed-signal simulations and real number modeling
  • Work with technical leads and across multiple disciplines, including design, verification, test, product definition

Preferred Qualifications

  • Familiarity with C/C++ programming is a plus
