Job Description:
Microchip Technology Inc. has a Senior Technical Staff Engineer - IO Design Lead opening based in Chandler Arizona. This engineer will be responsible for providing technical leadership in the architecture definition design modeling integration and verification of complex analog circuitry (clocking Rx Tx) integrated into the IOs of the FPGA.
Develop analog circuits for GPIO HSIO high-speed DDR and other IO applications in advanced FinFET nodes.
Work with architecture team to understand chip requirements and translate them into circuit architectures and implement and simulate them.
Contribute to the micro architecture and circuit design simulation and optimization of various IO blocks such as clocking (PI DLL PLL) CTLE VGA Tx.
Collaborate with layout and ASIC PnR team to optimize IO floorplan placement and routing of power and critical signals.
Develop IO system models to determine system budgets identify performance bottlenecks and create implementable design specs.
Drive analog and digital design AMS verification layout across different geographies and time zones.
Improve current and develop new calibration and training algorithms of various sub-blocks in the IOs to meet high-speed performance.
Work with the ESD engineer to integrate the ESD design into IO blocks.
Layout guidance and mentorship of junior engineers.
Work with the layout lead in planning the distribution of critical signals and clocks placement of IO blocks and design of the IO power distribution network.
Propose new mixed-signal flows for IO designs that will enhance the efficiency and quality of current and future designs
Investigate new architectures and circuit design techniques for current and future generations of FPGA IOs.
Support IO Mixed-Signal IP through post-tapeout phase including lab testing customer bring-up and debug.
