The CPU Server Physical Design Clock Engineer joins the CPU Engineering group to develop best in class clocking solutions for next generation CPUs. This role involves collaborating with microarchitecture, RTL design, CAD, and block level teams to implement and validate CPU clocking. Key responsibilities include driving clock generation and distribution methodology, performing jitter analysis and measurements, and optimizing for skew and power. The position requires expertise in low skew and low power clock generation, including H-tree, mesh, spines, and CTS implementations. Candidates must possess a strong understanding of device physics, RC delay, and electrical aspects. Required technical skills include proficiency in SPICE simulation and analysis for circuit design and verification, along with experience in standard cell optimizations and deep submicron process technology nodes.
