Job DescriptionESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
- In this position, the individual will be responsible for the following: Designing, developing, modifying, and evaluating Analog/mix-signal Integrated Circuit (IC) of high performance NAND flash, including new, most advanced 3D NAND memories
- Designing low power analog modules such as OPAMP design, Voltage Regulator, Reference Generator
- Designing high voltage word line driver circuits which convey accurate analog voltages to block decoder while achieving smaller circuit sizes
- Performing sensing operation analysis, power & ground network analysis to enable precise and fast sensing operations
- Writing module interface spec including input/output port description, architecture, and operations to communicate with other design groups
- Verifying designs in simulation and interacting with layout and other functional groups for implementation, integration, and silicon validation
- Conducting various feasibility studies at the beginning of the design phase for new architecture, features and device modes
- Probing and evaluating silicon results by working closely with characterization engineers to fully characterize silicon, and partner with other designers to develop solution for silicon issues.
- Evaluation of these circuits will be done through HSPICE, PRIMESIM and VERILOG simulations and through silicon evaluation when the silicon arrives.
QualificationsREQUIRED:
- Requires MS degree in Electrical Engineering.
