- Power Management
- LDOs and/or SMPS
- Clock Generation
- PLL, VCO, XTAL
- Clock and Data Recovery Circuits
- Experience in behavioural circuit modelling
- Experience in all stages from Circuit and System Specification, into simulation, verification all the way to qualification
- Good communication skills in English
Even better if you have:
- Macro-level experience: integration, verification and tape-out
- Programming experience: Python, linux, verilogA, verilogAMS, system verilog, C Matlab,
- Team-lead experience
- Packaging knowledge (CSP, BGA, etc.)
- CMOS RF circuit design experience
- CMOS process & design flow (CAD/PDK) knowledge
- Knowledge of Cadence design tools and environment and also Mentor Calibre verification suite
Benefits
What we offer in return:
As well as the opportunity to really play a pivotal part in our success, :
- A friendly, supportive and inclusive working environment
