Dear All, There is an opening for a Lead SI engineer (Board level). Please mail your response to: kopal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx JOB DESCRIPTION SENIOR SIGNAL INTEGRITY ENGINEER We are seeking a strong and versatile Senior Signal Integrity Engineer who has excellent experience with board level simulation. He/She will be involved with the board design and development effort through all phases including analysis, design, layout, simulation, prototype bring-up, test, complete design documentation, and release to manufacturing. He/ She is expected to understand signal integrity issues, and board layout design rules. Candidate should be a self-starter who thrives in fast-paced environments and employs creative problem solving to overcome engineering challenges. QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS: MSEE Plus 3+ years (or BSEE with 5+ years) of industry experience or (PhD preferred) The candidate must be an expert in the following: *Prelayout signal integrity simulation including topology studies, routing studies, IO buffer selection, Pkg. parasitics/delays effects, etc.. (Mentor ISIS Preview-part of the Innoveda Package) *Prelayout timing analysis (creating budgets per interface) including common clock, ddr, and qdr interfaces (Hand calculations, and Mentor ISIS Preview-part of the Innoveda Package) *Power integrity/Noise margin analysis/calculations, decoupling schemes, etc. (Sigrity) *Defining placement requirements based on the above criteria *Creating topologies, constraints, rules using Cadence's allegro and SpecctraQuest) *Postlayout SI and timing analysis (simulating secondary effects (crosstalk, intersymbol interference, sso, jitter, etc. and their effects on the overall budgets) to define timing violations. *Expertise in Cadence Spectra-Quest and Mentor Graphic Hyperlynx or XTK. *Expert in IBIS Modeling. (Preferable) *Expert in HSPICE Model Extraction (Preferable) *Familiar with DDR/QDR interfaces (chip-to-chip, SDRAM (DDR), SRAM (QDR). *Simultaneous switching output analysis. *Simulations of device I/O to reduce overshoot and undershoot (which can cause increased noise on power planes due to return currents). *Crosstalk analysis of signals to reduce noise. *Return current analysis for noise reduction. *Proper transmission line impedance control. *Lab measurements using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, etc. for verification. Thank you.
