Job DescriptionThis position is in the Core Analog Division (CAD), which is part of Renesas' Analog & Mixed Signal product group. The CAD R&D team develops and industrializes a broad portfolio of standard products as well as a family of highly configurable mixed-signal products for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to consumer, communication, computing, data center, industrial, and automotive applications. The CAD team is the pioneer and dominant market leader of the highly successful GreenPAKTM family of products. This customer configurable product and platform enables customers to differentiate their products, reduces BOM cost and development cost and time. The CAD team is continuously expanding our product portfolio that includes high-performance analog IP's, DC-DC, and FPGA.
As a Senior Data Converter Architect, you will be responsible for leading the development of high-resolution data converter IP for standard products as well as integration in CAD's broad portfolio of configurable products. As our data converter specialist, guiding and mentoring team members is essential and one of your most important responsibilities. This is a senior technical leadership position, and you will be working with design and program managers to drive NPI (New Product Introduction) execution as well as continuous efficiency and performance improvement.
Responsibilities:- Architect and design high-performance AFE (analog frontends) and signal-chain ecosystems, which include IP such as PGA (programmable gain amplifiers), precision voltage references, and data converters.
- Develop high-accuracy IP with voltage accuracy on the order of 1uV.
- Develop Delta Sigma A/D converters with resolution of 24-bit or higher.
- Design Nyquist D/A converters with resolution of 18-bit or higher.
- Architect and design SAR A/D converters with resolution of 16-bit or higher.
- Guide and mentor CMSD's global Design, Characterization, and Test Engineering team on high-voltage and high-accuracy design and test techniques.
- Develop product definition and specifications to achieve optimal tradeoffs between product competitiveness and development cost.
- Collaborate with Product Definition and Marketing on product roadmaps and long-term IP development plans.
- Represent CAD R&D and contribute to key technical meetings and initiatives at product group (AMS) and company level.
Qualifications- MSEE or PhD in EE + 15 years semiconductor design leadership experience
- Proven track record in designing high-accuracy products with resolution better than 1uV.
- Proven track record in designing high-performance AFE products with ENOB of 16-bit or above.
