Digital IC Design Engineer

Job Description:

Texas Instruments is looking for a Digital Design Engineer to join their Analog Power Products team in Dallas, TX. This role involves designing and verifying digital logic for next-generation power management and analog ICs across various applications, including industrial, automotive, and consumer sectors.

Responsibilities:

• Define and implement digital blocks such as state machines, control logic, and embedded processor subsystems in RTL.
• Collaborate with systems and analog design teams to develop digital design specifications that meet performance, power, and area targets.
• Conduct chip architecture trade-off analysis to ensure compliance with specifications at competitive costs.
• Participate in design reviews and produce comprehensive design and product documentation.
• Supervise IC layout of digital blocks to meet timing, power, and signal integrity requirements.
• Develop and maintain behavioral and simulation models for system-level analysis.
• Characterize silicon prototypes, develop test specifications, and coordinate with test and product engineering for product release.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• 1+ years of experience in digital IC design or a related role.

Skills:

• Proficiency in RTL design using Verilog or System Verilog.
• Experience with functional verification methodologies including simulation, assertions, and coverage-driven verification.
• Familiarity with synthesis and static timing analysis tools (e.g., Synopsys Design Compiler, Cadence Genus).
• Experience with low-power design techniques such as clock gating and multi-voltage design.
• Knowledge of standard digital interface protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, etc.).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a disciplined approach to design verification.
• Ability to work collaboratively across digital, analog, test, and product engineering teams.
