About the role
Texas Instruments is a global semiconductor design and manufacturing company that develops analog ICs and embedded processors, serving about 100,000 customers. The Audio Converters product development team builds highly complex mixed-signal devices for audio applications with industry-leading performance. This role covers RTL design and implementation of digital blocks within mixed-signal audio converter chips, working with analog design, AMS verification, digital verification, systems and physical design engineers from architecture definition through tapeout and silicon bring-up.
What you will do
- In this role, you will be responsible for the RTL design and implementation of digital blocks within complex mixed-signal audio converter chips.
- You will work closely with analog design, AMS verification, digital verification, systems and physical design engineers to develop robust, well-verified and silicon-ready digital implementations.
- This role provides an opportunity to work on challenging digital design problems within a mixed-signal context, implement complex digital algorithms in RTL, understand the interaction between digital and analog domains, and contribute to products from architecture definition through tapeout and silicon bring-up.
Skills used in this role
What the employer is looking for
- B.E./B.Tech or M.E./M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical, VLSI, or related field.
- 3-5 years of hands-on experience in digital RTL design using Verilog and/or SystemVerilog.
- Strong digital design fundamentals: FSMs, FIFOs, pipelines, synchronizers, handshaking and arbitration logic.
- Solid understanding of clock domain crossing (CDC) and reset domain crossing (RDC) concepts and design techniques.
- Hands-on experience designing and verifying serial interfaces such as SPI, I²C, I²S, PDM or TDM.
- Experience implementing digital filter blocks (CIC, FIR, IIR) or other DSP-oriented digital designs.
- Familiarity with the RTL-to-GDSII design flow including synthesis, static timing analysis (STA) and sign-off concepts.
- Experience with RTL quality checks including linting (SpyGlass or equivalent) and CDC/RDC analysis tools.
- Ability to read and interpret timing reports and identify RTL-level root causes for timing violations.
- Basic understanding of mixed-signal design concepts: ADC/DAC architectures, signal chains and digital-analog interfaces.
- Familiarity with scripting languages such as Python, Perl or Tcl for design automation and flow development.
Preferred qualifications
- Experience with audio converter products (ADC, DAC, CODEC, Class-D amplifiers) or audio SoC development.
- Knowledge of sigma-delta modulator architectures, oversampling and multi-stage decimation filter design.
- Experience with MATLAB or Simulink for fixed-point modeling or algorithm-to-RTL translation workflows.
- Exposure to UVM-based digital verification environments and co-simulation with analog models.
- Understanding of DFT concepts including scan architecture, ATPG and design-for-test best practices.
- Having contributed to RTL design from specification through tapeout and first-silicon bring-up.
Benefits and support
- Compensation and benefits are detailed in the job posting
