The Memory IP Group (MIP) within the IP, Security, and Client Product Group (ISCP) is looking for a DFX Scan Design Engineer to work on DDR/LPDDR Hard IP’s. In this role you will work with an experienced Mixed Signal design team to develop scan/dfx solutions for DDR/LPDDR PHY designs going into CPU and Networking products. You will be responsible for taking the design from product definition through design, synthesis, hardening, post-silicon enabling and High Volume Manufacturing (HVM).
Responsibilities of the role include, but not limited to:
Help define DFx Scan design methodology and uarch to ensure good coverage [Scan and functional] for IP and meet products' DPM requirements
Setup and debug Spyglass-DFT or other ATPG tools, generate ATPG patterns via Mentor Graphic Tessent, RTL and GLS test validation to ensure quality design, debug and root cause stuckat and atspeed failure using Mentor GLS testbench in Synopsys VCS tools, and validate chain test in serial testbench
Define and Debug Scan Netlist insertion in Fusion Compiler.
Good and close loop communication across function group (Logic, Val, Ckt, SD, HVM) to ensure a right DFX arch introduce to the IP.
Perform yield analysis improvement and assisting the silicon debug
Analyze product requirement to balance DFX Scan requirements vs products' PPA and cost.
In addition to qualifications listed below the ideal candidate would have
Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills
Strong verbal and written communication skills
Effective team player with continuous learning mindset
Willingness to balance multiple tasks
Willingness to work in a fast-paced environment with cross functional teams.
