Description
We work on the development of high-performance and high-speed AMS circuits used in SerDes PHY, including evaluation of different circuit topologies for specific product requirements (e.g., Rx, CDR, Tx, bias generator, high-speed clock generation and low-jitter distribution, phase interpolator, DLL, VCO, LDO) with best in class power, performance, and area (PPA).

We lead discussions with multi-functional teams (e.g., architecture, SIPI, packaging, board design, DFT, ESD) to create and drive block-level specifications, mixed-signal implementations and behavioral modeling. We work closely with SOC teams to deliver IP views and ensure they meet the quality standards. While developing these complex IPs on regular basis, we interact with peers/management to communicate progress, discuss new ideas and drive new implementations/concepts making it an exciting and growth-oriented work environment.
