Job Description

Our client, based in Cambridgeshire is seeking IC Designers with knowledge and experience in high speed analogue and mixed signal IC design using Cadence tools.

The company are looking to build their team of IC designers to develop their High Accuracy Tracking technology.

Degree qualified (or equivalent), the successful candidate will have knowledge and experience in High speed analogue & Mixed Signal IC design using Cadence tools. Experience in high performance Operational Amplifier design is essential and Switched Mode techniques & Linear power supply regulation will be an advantage.

Experience of taking specifications and turning them into transistor designs at a sub cells level and building the design through to top level schematics is necessary.

Understanding of processes for power management is required to allow robust design.

The candidate will have hands on experience of IC layout as well as working with dedicated IC layout engineers.

The candidate must be able to work on their own initiative, but also communicate well with the other members of the team and contribute where necessary to ensure project completion on time.

Experience Required:

Designed high performance analogue / mixed signal ICs in CMOS technologies.

Ultra High speed amplifier/line driver design (>100MHz.

Voltages in the range 5-10V.

Knowledge of topologies & design structures for driving reactive loads.

Good working knowledge of leading edge processes.

Used to working with Foundry Design Kits and working round their limitations.

Seen more than 2 design through to commercialisation.

Design for process spread and corner cases.

Design for test and creating a test specification for the devices.

Power Management.

Switched Mode power supply design experience (optional, but desirable).

Linear power regulation design experience (optional, but desirable).

Good knowledge of ESD and Latch-up prevention techniques.

Experience with Cadence tool chain is essential
