Descripción del empleo

Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering. 5 years of relevant experience digital circuit design (Circuits, Memory Sections, Serial Interfaces in a prototype / build environment DRAM,JTAG, I2C Design and Transmission line knowledge of Pin Electronics Experience Managing PCB layout to ensure signal integrity Proficiency in CAD tools such as OrCAD or others. Experience with Digital sub-system’s design. Familiarity with large FPGA design.

Responsibilities:

Responsible for designing the digital circuits on the module. This includes the FPGAs with their configuration and clock circuits. Design the memory sections. There will be DRAM attached to the FPGAs that will need to be designed in. Design the PCIe interface between the module’s receiving connector to the FPGA Design several serial interfaces such as JTAG, I2C, etc from the FPGAs to other components on board. Work with the Analog Designer to ensure all digital components are powered properly including voltage levels, loading, grounding and noise management. Design the Pin Electronics circuits. These are off - the-shelf IC’s but require transmission line knowledge to ensure proper signal delivery. Design all the interconnects in and out of the module via existing connectors. Manage the board PCB layout to ensure signal integrity goals are met Responsible for turning on the first prototype and ensuring the design works and meets the requirements.
