Sr. Digital Design Engineer
Description
Job Duties:
- Conduct image sensor array/analog related timing control design and Image Signal Processing (ISP) system level integration using Verilog and Python.
- Perform chip level architecture definition, including analog interface/control, image data processing, ISP datapath, power, performance, and area trade-offs.
- Integrate and validate ISP data pipes according to PRD/design specification & system architecture of SoC CIS products.
- Perform full-chip integration and verification using SimVision, Verdi, SystemVerilog and Perl.
- Perform logic synthesis, logic equivalence checking, static timing analysis and power analysis.
- Perform chip bring-up, validation, and debugging using FPGA and Python.
- Define the block level design document such as interface protocol, block diagram, transaction flow, pipeline, etc.
- Develop ISP functions, such as PD Compensation and AWB Gain, for timing and power consumption optimization by using High Level Synthesis with Siemens Catapult.
- Perform RTL coding, function/performance simulation debug, Lint/CDC/FV/UPF checks.
- Conduct synthesis design with Cadence RCC or Genus.
- Participate in timing/power closure and FPGA/silicon bring-up.
- Participate in test plan and coverage analysis of the block and SOC-level verification.
- Finish RTL coding of functional blocks in design to meet full-chip integration target time.
- Work with CIS project lead, sensor digital and analog engineers for system integration & validation.
- Work with back-end team closely in floor planning, timing closure, and DFT.
- Work with algorithm and application engineers for image tuning and qualification by using MATLAB, C and C++.
