CPU Implementation Silicon Correlation Engineer
Core
Validating and correlating physical design points to silicon to ensure target frequencies, voltages, and power are realizable on final products.
Role type
Senior IC silicon correlation engineer (CPU implementation)
Builds
Advanced CPU hardware products
Domain
Semiconductor / CPU design
Required skills
pre-silicon timing analysis, post-silicon speed debug, STA, Spice simulation, data parsing and plotting, chip tapeout experience, custom or PnR block experience
Preferred skills
CPU design experience, standard cell architecture knowledge, device technology and Spice models, ATPG pattern framework, PNR tool flows, TCL/Perl/Python scripting
Responsibilities
Obtain process-related silicon measurement data from product and technology teams; Analyze pre-silicon timing runs to comprehend margins and relate them to measured silicon parameters; Work with post-silicon teams in evaluating ROI of design and methodology features; Analyze post-silicon speed debug data to help identify and root cause failing paths
