Job-Role: AMS ESD Expert

Job-location: Bangalore

Experience required: 5 to 15 years

As an ESD Expert/Leader at LTSCT, you will play a critical role, focusing on architecting, designing and delivering ESD solutions for Analog/RF/Power IP, SOC and system level for all the projects being done in LTSCT. You are expected to have deep understanding of device physics and hand on experience and on state of art ESD methodology from concept, design, enabling tape out, silicon testing and debugging. The candidate must have experience of working with Fab to be able to understand the requirement of technology to be able to architect the ESD solutions. LTSCT will be working on CMOS, Finfet and BCD technologies and its mandatory that candidate must have experience of at least 2 forms of the technology. The successful candidate in this role will drive solutions with customer, marketing and systems team to create roadmap, architecture, circuit design, setting up best in class methodologies and processes. We are seeking individuals who have a strong passion for setting up the methodologies, passionately driving the initiatives and coming up with solution in complex and evolving situations. The key expectations for this role include, but are not limited to:

Areas Of Responsibility:

• End to end responsible for architecture, feasibility and modelling of ESD solutions needed for IP and SOC. • Defining ESD Methodology: Establishing the ESD protection strategy for all silicon developed, including specifying chip and IP level ESD requirements1. • Designing ESD Protection Devices: Creating and integrating ESD protection circuits and devices to meet design requirements. This includes designing diodes, grounded gate nchannel MOSFETs, and silicon-controlled rectifiers2. • Developing Test Structures: Designing test structures to characterize silicon for ESD and latch-up properties, ensuring the robustness of the ICs against ESD events1. • Collaborating with Foundries: Working closely with semiconductor foundries to develop ESD libraries and design rules based on silicon characterization data1. • Maintaining ESD Device Libraries: Keeping an updated library of ESD devices to support internal and external design teams1. • Conducting ESD Testing and Verification: Generating or reviewing ESD testing plans and ensuring that ICs meet industry standards such as the Human Body Model (HBM) and Charged Device Model (CDM)2. • Debugging and Problem-Solving: Leading ESD-related debug activities to identify and resolve issues during the design and manufacturing process1. • Documentation and Reporting: Maintaining detailed records of ESD control measures, test results, and compliance with ESD standards2.
