Responsibilities & Skills:
The position is for Integration Design Engineer at Lattice Semiconductor (PH) Corp. The design engineer will be part of the Silicon Integration Team and will mainly be responsible for the integration of different IPs to build the chip utilizing both custom and digital design flows.
Accountabilities:
Design engineer will generally be responsible for the integration of different IPs to build the fullchip. This extends to the delivery of all the corresponding models, views and collaterals to different functional teams and the completion of all the required checks and simulations for sign-off.
Collaborate with Architecture, SW, IP Design, and Physical Design Teams to generate fullchip logical floorplan. Generate fullchip behavioral model by integrating the various IP models in alignment to the logical floorplan and the requirements of SW and Verification teams. Responsibility extends to the delivery of fullchip synthesized netlist and fullchip schematics.
Design and implement (custom and digital) density-specific IPs (such as clock networks) and sectors (group of IPs) suitable for fullchip integration. Perform all flows and checks such as elaboration/compilation, synthesis, equivalence, DFT, timing closure (spice simulation and/or STA), power and performance analysis.
Work closely with other functional teams to debug and resolve issues.
Perform fullchip tapeout-gating audits such as Electromigration and IR drop (EMIR) Analysis, Netlist Electrical Rule Checks (NetERC), Power Distribution Network (PDN) Extraction, Simultaneously Switching Outputs (SSO) simulations, and ESD checks.
Required Skills:
BS or MS in Electronics/Computer/Electrical Engineering
At least 8 years of proven in-depth experience in Custom and Digital Design Implementation. Expertise in Verilog and System Verilog is a must.
Experience in FPGA/CPLD design and integration is a plus.
Expertise/Solid understanding of the following:
Custom Design Flow
Semiconductor principles and transistor-level analysis
Industry standard tools for schematic and layout Entry (Cadence Virtuoso)
Characterization, performance, and power simulations (spice is preferred)
Digital Design Flow
RTL coding and verification
Lint Check, Elaboration/Compilation, Synthesis, Equivalence Check, SDC, and STA using industry standard tools (Xcelium, Genus, Innovus, Tempus)
Knowledge in DFT flow and ATPG generation is an advantage.
Experience in IP and Fullchip functional verification is a plus.
Expertise in coding/scripting (Perl, TCL, Shell, Skill, Phyton)
Experience in project leadership and product development cycle (planning, resourcing, tapeout, silicon characterization/validation) is a plus.Benefits:
Competitive benefits package including:
Medical (HMO), dental, vision effective on date of hire
Employee Stock Purchase Plan, Well-being Programs, Tuition Reimbursement and more
