Responsibilities
ASIC-PD methodology team are responsible for the development of timing analysis and timing closure methodologies and flow automation for super large and high speed semi-custom chips using deep submicron processes. This includes:
-
Research and implement state-of-the-art timing signoff methodology on deep sub-micron process
-
Build automatic flow with commercial timing signoff tools to achieve high quality timing closure
-
Develop internal tools and methodology to automate timing constraint/SDC generation
-
support the physical design implementation team for speed of light project execution
What You'll Be Doing
-
Develop and validate flows for ASIC backend library quality check, maintain and release methodology.
-
Build and validate flows for design level lib cells usage auditing.
-
Setup flows/methodology on library in deep submicron physical effects such as aging, self heating, etc.
What We Need To See
-
MS/PhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 2+ years industry experience
-
Understanding of standard cells/memory/IO/PLL and other hard IP modeling and their usage in the ASIC flow.
-
Hands-on experience in advanced CMOS technologies, design with FinFET technology 7nm/5nm/3nm and beyond.
-
Good knowledge with standard cell design & layout
-
Good knowledge of parameter extraction, device physics, STA methodology and EDA tools.
-
Understanding spice analysis, crosstalk, electro-migration, noise, OCV, timing margins.
-
Expertise in coding- TCL, Python, Perl. Familiarity with industry standard ASIC tools: LC, PT, Spice, etc.
-
Strong communications skill and good teamwork experience
