What You Will Do

Deployment of chiplets for use in automotives are widely seen as a pathway to improve overall performance and reliability. Currently, the chiplet technologies and designs that exist today are insufficient to meet the stringent needs of the automotive industry. To realize their potential, chiplets must be designed, fabricated, validated and qualified for the device mission profile for which they are intended. This would also require selection and development of the target packaging and interconnect technology to support the integration and implementation of chiplets into automotives. To address these issues, a series of test devices for qualifying advanced packaging technology and the suitability of interconnect technologies to pass automotive quality requirements is needed. To accomplish this, imec has partnered with faculty at the University of Michigan to design, validate, and select the most appropriate ADC architecture that can be utilized on the road to chiplet adoption in the automotive industry.

Imec is seeking a highly skilled Analog ASIC Design Engineer to develop and validate the required ADC architectures to meet the automotive demands of the future. This role will be located in Ann Arbor, MI, near the University of Michigan campus, as part of a growing collaboration between the University of Michigan and imec.

This position will leverage your ability to select the most appropriate ADC architecture to meet customer’s requirements. You will be asked to design the complete ADC along with a stable ADC reference. Working with our growing team, you will help direct a full custom layout that delivers high-quality products that successfully demonstrate performance and reliability. The ADC’s you create will be confirmed through functional verification.
