Hello guys....I wanted to let you guys know that there is still a consulting opportunity open for one of my clients in Santa Clara. I have gotten quite a few responses, so thank you for all of them. But, the issue has been that my client needs the work to be done onsite. So, I wanted to run it by everyone one more time to see if anyone could committ to a 4-6 month project onsite in Santa Clara, CA: seeking a Sr. Signal Integrity Engineer. The group provides a dynamic, communicative environment offering opportunities for cross training in the areas of opto-electric devices, Ethernet PHYs, clock tree distribution and jitter measurement and mitigation techniques. Responsibilities: 1. Use analytical and simulation tools to generate design guidelines and stackups for high-speed boards and multi-gbps backplanes with cost and design tradeoffs in consideration. 2. Detailed placement and routing review for boards and backplanes. 3. Post layout simulation on boards as required. 4. Digital interconnect, packaging, high-speed I/O buffer analysis and simulation. Includes accurate timing and voltage margin analysis. 5. Signal integrity measurement and verification in the lab using high speed scopes, network and spectrum analyzers, BERT and other test equipment. 6. Experience with SERDES based interfaces running above 1Gbps and DDR/QDR memory and PCI interface would be advantageous. Equal Employment Opportunity Employer Requirements: * Proficiency in HSPICE and 3D field solver (CST). * Proficiency in ADS or simulating Serdes based designs. * Proficiency in TDR based equipment and measurement capability. * Proficiency in S-parameter modeling and measurement. * Familiarity with tools like Sigrity, MATLAB. * Familiarity with PCB fabrication technology and stackup design. * Proficiency in a post-layout simulation tool (HyperLynx GHz). * Familiarity with latest time and frequency domain test equipment. * Good understanding of ASIC I/O development and high-speed digital system design and verification. * Ideal candidate would have MSEE degree with 5 years or BSEE degree with 7 years of relevant experience. Required Skills: HSpice, ADS, Serdes based designs, TDA IConnect. Kevin D.
