Description
Job Duties:

• Conduct image sensor array/analog related timing control design and Image Signal Processing (ISP) system level integration using Verilog and Python.
• Perform chip level architecture definition, including analog interface/control, image data processing, ISP datapath, power, performance, and area trade-offs.
• Integrate and validate ISP data pipes according to PRD/design specification & system architecture of SoC CIS products.
• Perform full-chip integration and verification using SimVision, Verdi, SystemVerilog and Perl.
• Perform logic synthesis, logic equivalence checking, static timing analysis and power analysis.
• Perform chip bring-up, validation, and debugging using FPGA and Python.
• Define the block level design document such as interface protocol, block diagram, transaction flow, pipeline, etc.
• Develop ISP functions, such as PD Compensation and AWB Gain, for timing and power consumption optimization by using High Level Synthesis with Siemens Catapult.
• Perform RTL coding, function/performance simulation debug, Lint/CDC/FV/UPF checks.
• Conduct synthesis design with Cadence RCC or Genus.
• Participate in timing/power closure and FPGA/silicon bring-up.
• Participate in test plan and coverage analysis of the block and SOC-level verification.
• Finish RTL coding of functional blocks in design to meet full-chip integration target time.
• Work with CIS project lead, sensor digital and analog engineers for system integration & validation.
• Work with back-end team closely in floor planning, timing closure, and DFT.
• Work with algorithm and application engineers for image tuning and qualification by using MATLAB, C and C .
