Job Description:

This position is in the Advanced Development team of Microchip's FPGA Division. Microchip is a major supplier of low-power and highly reliable field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), a type of programmable logic chip. Our FPGAs are used in a wide variety of applications, including: embedded vision; digital signal processing; machine learning; industrial and medical equipment; and satellites.

Microchip is also a pioneer in embedding RISC-V processors in FPGAs. The successful applicant will work as part a core team that develops future FPGA fabric architectures and collaborate with design engineering to develop, verify, and integrate the fabric architecture with other device components such as IO, hard IP blocks, configuration, and security.

Responsibilities will include a mixture of the following:

• Learn about development of FPGA fabric architectures that support a range of applications across embedded control solutions, communications, industrial, and aerospace.

• Contribute to evaluation of logic and routing for future FPGA architectures, and help drive speed, power, and cost targets.

• Develop FPGA application benchmarks to evaluate micro-architecture designs, either by coding them in Verilog or by programming algorithms to generate designs automatically.

• Design and analyze custom and standard cell circuits to implement desired functionality while meeting power, performance, area, and reliability requirements.

• Collaborate and share your data with various groups within the company, including Software Engineering, Circuit Design, Marketing and Application Engineering. This broad organizational exposure will provide an unusual opportunity for learning and advancement within Microchip.

Requirements/Qualifications:

We value articulate, creative, and self-motivated people. This role will contribute to future product directions and so previous experience with FPGAs is desirable. Demonstration of analysis and design implementation in adjacent disciplines such as ASIC design may also be acceptable.

• Bachelor/Masters/PhD in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Math, Statistics or Physics.

• 0-2 years relevant research or work experience in programmable logic circuit design, or, memory cell design, stdcell library element design & implementation, analog circuit custom design, IO custom design

• Practical Experience with transistor level circuit design: schematic entry, layout or physical design, and simulation (HSPICE or Spectre) on advanced process nodes (preferably FinFET)

• Understanding of RC parasitics, layout extraction and EM/IR analysis

• Experience with Cadence and/or Synopsys IC design tools & flows

• Scripting and programming skills using csh, bash, perl, python, tcl, etc.

• Experience with hardware description languages such as Verilog or VHDL

• Outstanding oral and written communication skills, willingness to document work products.
