Job Description
The future starts here! Ready to join NXP
Become part of the startup of a dynamic team that is leading NXP on a digital transformation journey. There is a lot of room for new ideas and innovations and you will be supported to have a continuous focus on development coaching and creating a supportive environment for your team.
Your Team
The NXP Leuven design center focuses on ultralowpower ICs for the healthcare segment. We are offering internships to master students willing to extend their knowledge with a practical assignment.
Subject
This work is planned for a 6 weeks fulltime internship at NXP. The goal is to design a SystemC simulation framework for a small CoolFlux DSP subsystem.
The CoolFlux processor is a family of low power DSP processors which achieves leading industrystandard performance. The processor family also contains numerous peripherals which can be integrated with the processor to construct subsystems to the needs of the customer.
Some customers have expressed their interest for a system level model of the CoolFlux processors/subsystem and the integration into their highlevel validation flow early in the design phase. For this reason a SystemC model of the CoolFlux processor/subsystem is needed. This work is to design a simulation framework which can be used to verify the functionality of the system level model of the CoolFlux processor/subsystem.
Documentation of the selected CoolFlux processor and peripherals are available which can be the starting point of this work. An RTL simulation framework can be used as a reference for constructing the simulation framework for the system level models.
Work
The goal is to design a simulation framework which can be used for the system level verification of a small CoolFlux subsystem. This includes:
- Understand the basic architecture and interface of a selected CoolFlux processor.
- Generate the system level model of the CoolFlux processor using the Chess toolsuite.
- Understand the behavior of a few selected peripheral modules. Generate the system level model of the selected peripherals.
- Port some existing test cases to verify the functionality of the subsystem.
The result of the work will be a framework for the system level simulation of a small CoolFlux subsystem. Documentation is required on generating the system level model from the Chess tool and how to use the simulation framework.
Profile of the student
You study as second year master in electrical engineering nanotechnology or information technology. You have notions of IC design. You are creative and like handson work. You have good communication and English language skills.
Work environment
You have the opportunity to work in a fully equippedhigh tech environment. You will be coached by experienced engineers. Your location is NXP Leuven.
Duration
This is a fulltime internship 39 hours per week) with a duration of 6 to 9 weeks. Please note that in order to be considered for an internship/working student assignment you need to be registered as a student during the entire period. The internship is done in collaboration with university for study credits (see conditions of the university).
