What are the responsibilities and job description for the Physical Design Engineer position at TalentLynk Technologies?
Position Overview
This role focuses on the physical design of integrated circuits (ICs), where you will be responsible for the end-to-end implementation of physical design processes, including synthesis, floor planning, clock tree synthesis (CTS), and place and route. You will work on high-speed designs and contribute to the development and validation of power grids and clock constraints, playing a crucial role in ensuring designs meet performance and manufacturing requirements.
Key Responsibilities
- Physical Design Implementation : Perform physical synthesis, floor planning, clock tree synthesis (CTS), place and route, and other key physical design tasks in compliance with industry standards.
- Power Grid and Clock Constraints : Develop and implement high-speed clock and power grid specifications and constraints to optimize power efficiency and design performance.
- Physical Design Verification : Debug and resolve LVS / DRC issues at both the block and chip levels using physical design verification methodologies.
- Timing and Signal Integrity : Perform static timing analysis (STA), handle clock domain crossing (CDC), and understand parasitic delays through SDF-annotated simulations.
- Mixed-Signal Environment : Work within mixed-signal environments, ensuring smooth integration between analog and digital components in the design.
- Tape-Out and Foundry Interface : Manage design tape-out processes and collaborate with foundries, ensuring a solid understanding of the semiconductor supply chain.
