Initial 12 month freelance contract + possibility of extensions
Leuven, Belgium (3 days onsite / week)
1st April start
40 hours/week
The Package Design Engineer has to perform package design and analysis (signal and power integrity simulations) and have technical discussions with customers and suppliers
The assignmentSelect and design the appropriate IC package type based on the given specifications and IC requirements.Perform a comprehensive analysis of the chosen package's electrical characteristics. Identify any limitations or potential issues that may arise during the design process.Optimize the electrical performance of the IC package by focusing on signal integrity, power integrity, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Analyze the routing, parasitic effects, and noise issues associated with the package. Propose design modifications or enhancements to improve electrical performance.Consider manufacturability and cost optimization aspects of the IC package design. Review the design for compatibility with manufacturing processes, assembly requirements, and materials availability. Suggest design modifications to streamline the manufacturing process while maintaining or reducing overall costs.Produce a comprehensive report summarizing your analysis, design modifications, and optimization recommendations for the IC package. Include detailed diagrams, simulations, calculations, and experimental results where applicable. Clearly communicate the rationale behind your design decisions and their potential impact on the IC's performance and reliability.
