Specific Skills

Knowledge of design of VLSI circuits; Knowledge of VLSI design and simulation; Knowledge of analog VLSI circuit design; Knowledge of device electronics; Knowledge of micro and nano fabrication technology.br br Any suitable combination of education, training, or experience is acceptable. The employer will accept any level of knowledge or proficiency in the specific skills listed in this section.br br JOB DUTIES CONTINUED FROM SECTION H.11 AND CONTINUED FROM SECTION K, JOB 1...Conduct silicon debug and evaluation of NAND flash memory products with microprobing to ensure problemfree mass production; Probe the internal signals on the manufactured NAND flash memory chip to verify NAND flash memory chip is working as intended; Debug circuit bugs causing functions issues and verify successful debugging by probing further and find the rootcause. Translate rootcause to into circuit design changes by interpreting Siliconchip characterization data, correlating data trends in characterization data with the circuit behavior to narrow down the issue, collaborating with characterization engineers to fully characterize silicon, and partnering with other designers to develop solution for silicon issues; Prepare a set of command sequences for the NAND flash memory chip; Create Sigma plot projections by plotting the characterization data in form of sigma plots; Verify that the parameters will meet the project target specifications by using sigma plot projections; Review measurement results with Staff Engineering team to identify circuit logic changes such as added signal buffering or adding synchronizing circuits; Support mass production teams to ensure IO specs have adequate coverage; Review the measurement data for the NAND flash memory to ensure all the memory specifications are within five 5 sigma from target specification; Identify timing parameters with lesser margins and suggest tests to catch the chips which fails the margin during mass production; Collaborate with production team to carry out failure analysis of chips that have issues by checking if a circuit modification is required or not, or if there is a workaround; Create command sequences to be used with NAND technologies for Product Engineering and Test Engineering PETE teams to effectively test NAND flash memories; Collaborate with PETE teams to enforce tests on every chip manufactured to ensure quality NAND flash memory delivered to customers during massproductions; Support product development and application engineering team on inputoutput IO specifications; Evaluate user requests from product development teams and provide explanations of how the requests would affect performance.
