THE TEAM

Digital Healthcare’s charter is to invent new systems that capture clinical-grade data, extract patient insights, and deliver life-saving healthcare solutions for all.

Within the Digital HealthCare (DHC) Business Unit, the DHC IC design team combines ADI’s signal processing capabilities with advanced sensor technologies and state-of-the-art packaging innovations to provide signal chain conditioning and processing for System-on-Chip, System-in-Package and module solutions to our Healthcare customers.

THE POSITION

The DHC IC design team at ADI is seeking for a Mixed Signal Design Engineer to join our growing team in Bari, Italy. You will be able to work together with a global team, who have designed and introduced many successful products that won sockets from top OEM healthcare manufacturers in Europe, Asia, and the USA.

We, DHC IC design group, develop integrated circuits for products enabling next generation solutions for Disease Management, Patient Monitoring and Smart Hospital applications.

As a Mixed Signal Design Engineer – Intern, the successful candidate will develop advanced low-power analog and mixed signals IP using most advanced ICs’ technology process. Working alongside experienced analog, mixed-signal and power-management engineers, the intern will contribute to real IC development activities while gaining practical experience in circuit architecture, transistor-level design, modelling, simulation and verification.

This internship provides an opportunity to apply university knowledge to real silicon designs and develop an understanding of the complete IC development process, from architecture and modelling through circuit implementation, physical design, verification and potentially silicon evaluation.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Top level goals:

§  Conduct circuit architecture research and feasibility studies for low-power and mixed signals functional blocks.

§  Contribute to the architecture, design, simulation and verification of signal conditioning functional blocks, including low-noise/low power amplifiers, filters, pulsers, ADCs and DACs.

§  Design and analyse analog sub-circuits used within signal converters, potentially including error amplifiers, comparators, voltage/current references, oscillators, gate drivers, level shifters, current-sensing circuits and protection functions.

§  Develop simulation testbenches and contribute to design verification across process, voltage, temperature and operating-load conditions.

§  Analyse functional blocks’ performance trade-offs including power consumption, noise, linearity, stability, transient response, silicon area and external components requirements.

§  Contribute to behavioural and system-level modelling to evaluate architectures and potential control-loop performance.

§  Work closely with layout engineers during physical implementation, including review of parasitic effects and layout-dependent performance.

§  Participate in technical and design reviews with experienced analog and power-management engineers.

§  Support top-level integration and verification of power-management IP within larger mixed-signal systems.

§  Where appropriate, contribute to laboratory evaluation and comparison of simulated and measured silicon performance.

§  Find appropriate techniques to achieve project requirements.

§  Work as digital lead on key projects, help define top level chip requirements.

§  Using recommended design and verification techniques, tools, and flow to produce efficient designs which meet specified functional, power, and timing objectives.

§  Interact and participate with a cross functional team including Product, Test, Marketing, and Application Engineers effectively importing/exporting information as needed for a successful execution of a product.

§  Mentor junior design engineers.

§  Document, present, and participate in project meetings.

Specific responsibilities:

§  Perform new digital design using RTL, System Verilog, Standard cells, or other approaches as necessary for both mixed signal ASSP and FPGA designs.

§  Assist in defining ASSP architecture and design specifications.

§  Specify and perform as necessary chip and block level verification and regressions.

§  Supervise (or perform) synthesis, timing analysis, and scan/ATPG.

§  Work with product, apps, and test engineers to ensure design will meet performance and testability goals.

§  Support silicon debug activities including testbench FPGA support.
