Renesas Electronics is hiring a Principal Analog Design Engineer to lead the architecture, design, and verification of CMOS analog blocks for custom ASICs. You will be responsible for ensuring designs meet performance, area, power, and timeline constraints, focusing on circuits including Tx/Rx, PLLs, and high-precision analog blocks.
What You'll Do
- Lead the design, simulation, and validation of advanced analog circuits, including DDR I/O interfaces such as TX, RX, PLLs, Bandgap, and high-speed mixed-signal circuits in fine-geometry processes.
- Develop and optimize high-speed DDR I/O interfaces, ensuring signal integrity, noise immunity, and compatibility with industry standards.
- Design and enhance analog receiver circuits, including CTLE, VGA, DFE, and slicer, focusing on performance metrics such as sensitivity, linearity, noise, and power consumption.
- Work closely with digital design engineers, systems engineers, and other stakeholders to ensure seamless integration of analog and digital components.
- Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and contribute to the development of best practices and design methodologies.
- Conduct comprehensive simulations and testing to validate design performance and reliability and implement corrective actions as needed.
- Create detailed design documentation, including specifications, schematics, and design reports.
- Stay abreast of industry trends and emerging technologies, proposing innovative solutions to enhance product performance with a focus on low-power circuit design.
- Ensure designs meet EM/IR/Aging requirements.
- Ensure layouts meet high analog standards for matching and performance.
What We're Looking For
- BS or MS degree in Electronics, Microelectronics Engineering, or a related discipline.
- 10-15 years of analog circuit design experience, with an emphasis on Tx designs.
- Expertise in high-speed DDR I/O interface design and optimization.
- In-depth knowledge of analog Tx design, including signal integrity and noise immunity.
- Proficiency with analog design tools (e.g., Cadence Virtuoso, Maestro, Spectre, HSPICE) and simulation techniques.
- Strong understanding of signal integrity.
- Strong understanding of general analog design principles and methodologies.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.
