WHAT SORTS OF JOBS DOES AN VLSI or ASIC ENGINEER DO?

1. Design Engineer: Takes specifications, defines architecture, does circuit design, runs simulations, supervises layout, tapes out the chip to the foundry, evaluates the prototype once the chip comes back from the fab. 2. ro!"#$ Engineer: Gets involved in the project during the design phase, ensures manufacturability, develops characterization plan, assembly guidelines, develops quality and reliability plan, evaluates the chip with the design engineer, evaluates the chip through characterization, reliability qualification and manufacturing yield point of view (statistical data analysis . !e is responsible for production release and is therefore regarded as a team leader on the project. "ost production, he is responsible for customer returns, failure analysis, and corrective actions including design changes. %. Tes$ Engineer: #evelops test plan for the chip based on specifications and data sheet, creates characterization and production program for the bench test or the $T% ($utomatic Test %quipment , designs test board hardware, correlates $T% results with the bench results to validate silicon to compare with simulation results. !e works closely with the product engineer to ensure smooth release to production and post release support. &. A''(i#)$ions Engineer: #efines new products from system point of view at the customer&'(s end, based on marketing input. !is mission is to ensure the chip works in the system designed or used by the customers, and complies with appropriate standards (such as %thernet, )*+%T, ,i-i etc. . !e is responsible for all customer technical support, firmware development, evaluation boards, data sheets and all product documentation such as application notes, trade shows, magazine articles, evaluation reports, software drives and so on. *. ro#ess Engineer: This is a highly specialized function which involves new wafer process development, device modeling, and lots of research and development projects. There are no quick rewards on this job. /f you are 01# oriented, highly trained in semiconductor device physics area, do not mind wearing bunny suits (the clean room uniforms used in all fabs , willing to e2periment, this job is for you. +. )#,)ging Engineer: This is another highly specialized job function. !e develops precision packaging technology, new package designs for the chips, does the characterization of new packages, and does electrical modeling of the new designs. -. CAD Engineer: This is an engineering function that supports the design engineering function. !e is responsible for acquiring, maintaining or developing all 3$# tools used by a design engineer. 4ost companies buy commercially available 3$# tools for schematic capture, simulation, synthesis, test vector generation, layout, parametric e2traction, power estimation, and timing closure5 but in several cases, these tools need some type of customization. $ 3$# engineer needs to be highly skilled in the use of these tools, be able to write software routines to automate as many functions as possible and have a clear understanding of the entire design flow.
