Folks, We have a challenging Sr. Signal Integrity Engineer position available now. You will be working directly with the top-notch engineers within the fast-pace x64 Systems Group that created Sun's exciting, award-winning x64 product lines. You will also be collaborating with the top signal integrity engineers of Sun's strategic partners - Intel, AMD and others, to design the next-generation cutting-edge blade/rack-mount servers. Please check out and apply at: http://www.sun.com/corp_emp/search.cgi?req=556242[1] Derek Tsai, Manager, x64 Systems Sun Microsystems, Inc. ===================================================== ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS: Works with the board designers to arrive at an optimal set of boardrouting and design rules to ensure optimal noise and timing marginfor manufacturability of the hardware products. Prior to board layout,evaluate the various design parameters including I/O timing budget,number/type/placement of decoupling capacitors, routing topologyusing SPICE/SiSoft simulator or based on measurements on test vehicles. As part of the validation process, perform post-layout verification of the signal and power planes on the board using verification tools such asSpecctraQuest or SiSoft. All of the signal integrity work strives to meet the aggressive, leading-edgesystem performance and reliability. Must understand the system design trade-offs. PLL application experience is a plus. MARGINAL FUNCTIONS: * Project management * Meeting coordination REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE: * Solid electronic circuit background * Good electromagnetic (EM) or EMI knowledge * In depth knowledge of high-speed design, transmission-line theoryfield-solving methods, noise analysis and EMC techniques * Expert in building models from transistor level and conversion to behavioral models (IBIS or SPICE) for use in full system level simulation * Experience with SPICE or other 'analog' simulators. * Experience with measurement equipment such as oscilloscope,impedance analyzer, and network analyzer. * Experience in correlating measurements to simulation models. * Some experience with the board design tools such as Allegro or * BoardStation * Good communication/presentation skill This position may vary between a MTS4, HW, Staff Eng, HW or Sr. Staff Eng, HW(Z-09, Z-10 or Z-12) depending on the experience of the candidate. PREFERRED KNOWLEDGE: * EMI knowledge * Practical experience capturing routing rules directly into Constraint Manager * Project management * Presentation * Solaris/Linux YEARS OF EXPERIENCE: 9+ MINIMUM LEVEL OF EDUCATION: MS, PhD FIELD OF STUDY: EE LOCATION: Menlo Park, CA --- Links --- 1 http://www.sun.com/corp_emp/search.cgi?req=556242 ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List technical documents are available at: http://www.si-list.net List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list or at our remote archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list/messages Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
