Semtech Corporation is a leading supplier of analog and mixed-signal semiconductors for high-end consumer, enterprise computing, communications, and industrial equipment. The Sensing Product Group located in our San Diego office has unique expertise in system level platform solutions for Sensing Products including Touch & Proximity. These are leading edge low power touch-interface solutions integrated with highly accurate ADCs for enhanced sensing performance. The Principle Analog Design Engineer is responsible for designing, simulating and validating a variety of analog functions such as ADCs, references, charge pumps, oscillators, pads. The role includes innovation & technical leadership, leading sub-teams, mentoring of junior engineers, supervision of layout engineers, silicon measurements or their supervision, support to production test engineers, and definition of test methodology.

  • System design, from top-level specification analysis to system optimization.
  • Analog block design, from specification definition to support to production.
  • Design & optimization, verification, technical documentation, layout supervision.
  • Silicon lab evaluation, characterization and debug.
  • Block or system modelling.
  • Lead engineer sub-teams, mentor more junior engineers.
  • Technology roadmap development with cross functional teams.
  • Technical support to test, product and application engineers.
  • Interface with digital, firmware, verification, layout and cross functional team.
  • 15+ years' experience in analog CMOS integrated circuit design
  • M.S. in EE or higher
  • Strong analytical and problem solving skills
  • Solid understanding and experience in designing transistor-level CMOS analog and mixed-signal blocks and systems, including IC technology and layout, with blocks such as ADCs, DACs, sensor interfaces, switched-capacitor blocks, power management, LDO regulators, bandgap, biasing circuits, amplifiers, oscillators, PLLs, comparators, filters, physical IOs etc.
  • In-depth knowledge of analog mixed-signal concepts, techniques and trade-offs like speed, power, noise, mismatch, linearity, stability, area
  • Demonstration of technical leadership and innovation
  • Strong knowledge of IC design CAD tools including schematic entry, Spice and mixed-mode simulation tools
  • Experience with oscilloscopes, supplies, meters and the associated measurement methods
  • Independent, self-motivated, rigorous, innovating, team player and able to follow through
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Knowledge of system-level aspects: signal processing, mixed-signal, digital, firmware, modelling, test and application
  • Experience with high-resolution, low-power ADC architectures, design and techniques
  • Experience with Cadence Virtuoso, Spectre/AFS, Siemens Symphony, Matlab, Verilog/VHDL etc.
  • Experience analog/mixed-signal behavioral model development/verification
  • Experience with consumer and/or ITA market circuit developments
  • A reasonable estimate of the pay range for this position is $140,000 - $190,000.
