About the Role
As a Power Integrity Engineer, you will contribute to the development and validation of power delivery solutions for complex, high-speed silicon, package, and platform designs. You will work with cross-functional engineering teams to analyze, optimize, and validate power delivery networks from silicon through package and board.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and analyze power delivery networks (PDNs) for silicon, packages, boards, and high-speed platforms.
- Perform 2D and 3D electromagnetic model extraction and power-noise analysis across the end-to-end power delivery path, including die/C4 bumps, package, socket, and board.
- Define and evaluate power-grid specifications, power-noise budgets, and design targets to balance power integrity, performance, area, and platform requirements.
- Apply power integrity principles and simulation methodologies to guide package and platform design and physical implementation.
- Analyze PDN impedance, voltage droop, resonance, ground bounce, decoupling effectiveness, and other power-noise characteristics.
- Develop electrical analysis methodologies, test structures, and verification plans for power delivery design and validation.
- Perform laboratory measurements to characterize power noise across frequency, transient response, ground bounce, and other key PDN metrics.
- Correlate post-silicon/platform measurements with pre-silicon simulations and models to improve design accuracy and methodology.
- Evaluate and optimize on-die, package, and platform decoupling strategies.
- Support voltage regulator (VR) performance characterization and optimization as part of the overall platform power delivery solution.
- Develop platform-level power delivery and decoupling recommendations for incorporation into platform design guides.
- Translate silicon power requirements into package and platform-level specifications and support design pathfinding to meet performance and form-factor requirements.
- Collaborate with silicon integration, die floorplanning, package, board/platform, voltage regulator, and validation teams to optimize the end-to-end power delivery solution.
