The IC designers at Analog Devices are always pushing limits to produce industry-leading products, involving faster speeds, higher frequencies, greater precision, lower power, reduced noise, new IC technologies, increased levels of system integration, and new markets. To facilitate innovation and efficient product development, we need to continuously advance our modeling, simulation, IC CAD tools, and design methods through best in-class design automation. Our Analog/Mixed-Signal Simulation, Modeling, and CAD R&D team provides the expertise and solutions that enable our IC designers to excel. We create value by developing internal tools and methodologies that augment commercial EDA products; the team has broad and deep technical expertise to make a difference to ADI.
Specific Responsibilities / Duties
The CAD Development Engineer will research, develop, apply, and support software for the design of leading-edge analog/mixed-signal integrated circuits, with an emphasis on analog/mixed-signal/RF IC design automation, giving our IC designers a competitive advantage. Projects may include:
- Research and development of circuit optimization algorithms to improve design efficiency
- Apply machine learning methods to create superior solutions to design automation problems
- Development and deployment of automated layout generation methods targeting advanced process nodes including FinFETs
- Development of IP/design porting tools/methods to improve IC design execution
All projects are expected to have a significant EDA software component with the expectation to contribute to all aspects of the software life-cycle including idea conception, product definition, software development, maintenance, and user support. By working closely with industry-leading analog/mixed-signal IC designers, collaborating with university researchers, and interfacing with commercial EDA tools, your work will provide leading-edge, targeted differentiation of design automation methods for ADI designers. Success is measured by the impact on IC design projects that produce great products for the customers of Analog Devices. The ideal candidate will have a sound understanding of IC design concepts and design automation algorithms with a passion for enterprise software development.
