AMD Serdes Technology Group develops high-performance electrical and optical transceivers in advanced CMOS PDKs. We are seeking an expert in analog/mixed-signal circuit design and architecture.
Job Responsibility
Own performance-critical analog mixed-signal circuit blocks used in Serdes, such as high-speed data converters (DAC and ADC), clocking (reference clock, PLL, clock dividers, muxes, buffers, regulators, multi-phase clock generators, error detection and correction), and analog front-end circuits (pad matching networks, ESD, CTLE, linear amplifier)
define circuit-driven micro-architectures of Tx and Rx subsystems and drive sub-block level specs
own power, performance, area, and jitter budgets of analog design blocks
mentor sub-block owners and conduct peer reviews of design and verification results
work with pre-tapeout verification and post-silicon validation teams to bring up silicon and analyze silicon results
Requirements
PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field or MS with relevant industrial experience in optical and/or electrical transceiver design
experience designing 200G+ CMOS transceivers, with a deep understanding of high-speed electrical and/or optical interface requirements
demonstrated proficiency in hands-on circuit optimizations, including tuning for power, performance, and area at both block and system levels
proven track record in silicon productization—from initial design through to bring-up, validation, and successful ramp to mass production
