IO Electrical Validation Engineer
Job Description
IO Electrical Validation engineers focus on either IO validation or MEMS validation etc. They need have experience in high-speed protocols like HDMI, Display Port, PCI2 Gen3 and above.
Responsibilities
Electrical validation of different IOs (PCIe, USB3, UFS, DP, HDMI, etc.) in different chips (GPU/SOC).
Requirements
Educational Qualification: B.E degree with Electrical/Electronic as major subjects.
Work Experience: 2 to 5 years of relevant work experience.
Technical Skills
Clarity on signal integrity concepts (e.g., insertion loss, reflections, cross talk, etc.).
Clarity on signal quality parameters (e.g., eye diagram, jitter, frequency ppm, duty cycle, etc.) and how to measure those parameters.
Familiarity of working in lab environment and strong knowledge of using different equipment like DSO, Multimeter, Power supplies (e.g., idea about ESD, minimum oscilloscope/probe BW required for measurement, etc.).
Knowledge to understand board design from schematics (*.pdf file) and layout (*.brd file - using Cadence Allegro tool). (e.g., should be able to understand signal/power topology from schematics, should be able to locate test points in PCB for signal of interest, etc.)
Knowledge to assemble a x86 motherboard (e.g., connect SMPS, DRAM cards, PCIe AIC, display, other peripherals, etc. to x86 motherboard).
Knowledge of board/chip bring-up flow (e.g., idea on list of items to verify before/after attaching chip to board like verifying No-Stuff components, impedance of voltage rails, etc.).
Proficiency in Windows & Linux OS and in Microsoft Office tools (e.g., In Linux – navigate folders, edit text files, move/copy files, SSH, execute scripts, etc.).
Familiarity with scripting languages like Python/Perl (e.g., idea about installing different python modules, execute python scripts, etc.).
Knowledge and hands-on experience on high speed SERDES IO (like PCIe, USB3, UFS, Ethernet, etc.) validation (e.g., eye measurement, JTOL testing, etc.).
Knowledge and hands-on experience of using equipment like BERT (Bit Error Ratio Tester), PCIe/USB3/UFS Logic Analyzer, etc.
Knowledge and hands-on experience on Silicon PVT characterization.
Knowledge and hands-on experience on board bring-up and testing.
