Principal ASIC Design Engineer

As a member of Microchip’s engineering community, your primary responsibility will be to the design, integration, and verification support of the Full Chip Architecture and Full Chip Control/Data busses for an advanced ASIC or FPGA. Microchip’s designs are an SOC with various Hard and Soft IP blocks that support a large number of industry standard protocols.

Duties & Responsibilities

• General Full Chip Integration and Support


• Detailed module design and integration, performance analysis and detailed design specification creation – a


• large component of this position is to work with all design teams to ensure seamless integration of all components on the device.


• Detailed ownership of full chip documentation of the SOC or FPGA device and/or device family.


• Participate in the Verilog implementation and integration of full chip capabilities including interface


• support, integration of full chip busses (control and data network-on-chip) and documentation support at the full chip level.


• Support full chip post-layout timing closure and verification


• Participate in the investigation & assessment of legacy and emerging integration techniques and on-chip / offchip


• network-on-chip (NOC) bus structures for both control and high speed data paths. Overall support of the full chip register map at the chip level is required.


• Improve Data & Command processing bandwidth, reduce latencies & increase reliability


• Support porting the design into test chips and emulation platforms


• Support pre-tapeout verification and post-tapeout validation/characterization of the system designed


• Work closely with FPGA support software and Firmware engineers to resolve hardware issues and customer issues
