Introduction:

The job involves delivering compact models of devices that will be used in protection circuits (that safeguard main/core circuits from various possible exposures to Electrostatic Discharges (ESD), either during the manufacturing process or during regular product use). Besides model delivery the role also entails interaction with customers and Application Engineers to debug issues pertaining to ESD model behavior and usage. Interaction with University research groups, working with interns on relevant projects of interest to enhance the understanding/offering of high-current behavior of ESD devices is also an integral part of the job.

Your Job:

Understanding and analyzing TLP measurements and assess device failure types and trends

Processing the lab data and to use it for model extraction – to deliver compact models that capture high current behaviors of ESD-FETs, ESD-Diodes, ESD-SCRs and various flavors that are offered in any given PDK (Process Development Kit) corresponding to a technology node. (Typical lab data : DC I-V Characteristics, AC S-parameter measurements using de-embedding structures for high frequency characterization, Transmission Line Pulsing measurements etc.)

De-bugging customer issues that may arise from time to time while using the ESD models in various circuits designed for their specific applications. Understanding the model/device behavior in the circuits and systems context and helping customers get around their design challenges innovatively.

Interacting with the Technology Development Teams to appreciate device design and electrical behavior of the ESD devices in question.

Work on stretch assignments/projects (with interns or otherwise) from time to time to improve/enhance technical knowhow on matters related to ESD Device Physics, Process knowledge, TCAD based insights, model automation, Library/ LVS /PEX issues and other model/circuit simulation related challenges.

Other Responsibilities:

Perform all activities in a safe and responsible manner and support all Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements and programs

Required Qualifications:

Ph.D /M.S, M.Tech in the field of semiconductor physics/technologies

Must have taken relevant courses on Semiconductor Device Physics, Model extraction (Compact modeling), RF Microelectronics and VLSI.
