About This Role

  • Defines the physical dimensions of the CPU IP with consideration for overall product costs such as die size optimization, die per reticle/good die per wafer maximization, and right technology selection as it pertains to metal layers and reuse strategy across different SKUs in a product family.
  • Performs integration of all dies in a package and completes the relevant checks before tapeout.
  • Creates and physical database for the IP.
  • Collaborates with architects to optimize the placement of IPs for latency as well as die area/aspectratio.
  • Creates specifications and collaterals for the IP blocks to execute the floorplan and automatic place and route (APR) at subsequent hierarchies.
  • Collaborates with the clock design and logic design teams to deliver the physical block level floorplans for APR.
  • Collaborates with the power delivery team on tradeoffs for metal allocation for signal and power.

Qualifications

  • Job Requirement: In this role you will be responsible for all the aspects of Floorplan and pin placement activities.
  • You will engage with Architecture, DFT and package to arrive at optimal chip planning early in the design cycle.
  • You will work closely with physical design cluster leads to comprehend design challenges and arrive at optimal floorplan.
  • You will play critical role in die size estimation and in evaluating Floorplan tools, methods and flows.
  • Planning boundaries and pin densities to facilitate high confidence timing closure and routability.
  • With your broad understanding of physical design you will play a critical role in identifying and solving multitude design issues at partition/cluster and full chip.
  • Expertise with multiple aspects of ASIC integration including Floorplanning, Clock and Power distribution, global signal planning, I-O planning and hard IP integration.

Key Skills

  • Experience with SoC issues such as multiple voltage and clock domains, ESD strategies, mixed signal block integration, and advanced package technologies.
  • Hierarchical design approach, top-down design, budgeting, timing and physical convergence.
  • From a CAD tool perspective, experience with Floor planning tools, P and R flows, Physical Design Verification Flows is required.
  • Familiar with various process related design issues including Design for Yield and Manufacturability.
