About the role
Internship for analog and mixed-signal IC design focusing on architecting and implementing energy-efficient, compact silicon solutions for neural recording/stimulation SoCs. Emphasis on circuit design, layout, verification, and testing within a meritocratic environment.
Responsibilities
- Define and implement innovative and optimal analog and mixed signal circuit architectures and transistor-level circuit solutions to achieve noise, mismatch, distortion, power consumption, and cost targets
- Defines verification plan for a portion of IP or chip and runs complex simulations and analyses (e.g., power, performance, linearity, yield) on designs
- Designs, programs, and runs complex tests and reviews tests of other team members; ensures bugs and issues are identified and appropriately analyzed
Qualifications
- Minimum 1 years of experience in analog/mixed-signal integrated CMOS circuit design for a specific area (e.g., delta-sigma ADC, SAR ADC, DAC, VCO, PLL, DLL, Audio CODEC and Class D audio amplifier, high speed PHY & SERDES) with a successful track record of silicon validation
- Minimum 3 months experience of application of technical skills outside of the classroom (e.g., lab, research, extracurricular project teams, open source contributions, volunteering, personal projects or prior internship/work experience)
- The ideal candidates are people who get excited about building things, are highly analytical, and enjoy tackling new problems regularly
