Analog Circuit Design Engineer
Apply on Intel’s site →Job Details: Job Description: Role Overview As an Integrated Voltage Regulator (IVR) Design Engineer, you will be responsible for the architecture, design, and implementation of high-performance power management solutions directly integrated onto advanced processors (CPUs, GPUs, or SoCs). You will work at the intersection of Analog/Mixed-Signal IC design and Power Electronics to improve energy efficiency and performance in next-generation computing systems. Key Responsibilities Circuit Architecture and Design: Develop and refine analog topologies such as Operational Amplifiers (Op-Amps), Bandgap References, Data Converters (ADC/DAC), and Phase-Locked Loops (PLLs). Design and Simulation: Perform transistor-level design using industry-standard tools (like Cadence Virtuoso). Conduct extensive Monte Carlo simulations, corner analysis, and noise analysis to ensure high yield and reliability. Layout Oversight: Collaborate closely with layout engineers to guide critical placement and routing, focusing on matching, shielding, and minimizing parasitic capacitance/resistance. Verification: Use SPICE-based simulators to verify circuit functionality against rigorous performance specifications (speed, power, gain, etc.). Post-Silicon Characterization: Bench-test silicon prototypes in the lab to validate performance against pre-silicon models and debug hardware anomalies Qualifications: Required Technical Skills Transistor Fundamentals: Expert knowledge of MOSFET/BJT device physics, small-signal modeling, and aging effects.
