Melexis engineers microelectronic solutions. These solutions facilitate the work of our customers. By easy integration. By taking innovation one step further. By providing a competitive advantage. Our technology makes cars and other products smarter, safer and greener. Our sensors capture data from the analog world and comprehend these data digitally. Our drivers make sure customers can bring their products to life. As we always have a plan, we come with the right products at the right moment so our customers stay one step ahead of the competition. That’s what we call inspired engineering.

 

 
We mainly focus on semiconductors for the automotive industry. Melexis is energizing the transition to Electrical Vehicles (EVs). We increase the efficiency of Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) cars. Besides the automotive market, we cater to other markets as well.

 
Our people are and make the difference. Melexis creates a framework for colleagues to grow, thrive and create impact for themselves, the customer and the company. Because we care, we empower and we excel. We believe in the power of diversity. Spread over 3 continents, 1900 colleagues from 50 nationalities shape the best imaginable future.

Project Description

We are developing digital circuits that are used in automotive safety critical systems: brakes, steering wheel, cruise control, etc… but as the world is analog, we need to digitize  physical measurements (temperatures, voltages, current) thanks to an analog to digital Converter (ADC). In order to  quickly and efficiently integrate our brand new silicon on insulator (SOI) 0.11um technology node ADC, we want to model it with state of the art techniques to speed-up simulation time and physical verification.

During this internship you will have the opportunity to learn various aspects of the microelectronic:
ADC structure
Modelizations: timing, power and behavioral
SPICE and Verilog simulations
Physical implementation

You will also get basic knowhow of Cadence tools for simulation and physical verification.

Expected results

• The target of this internship is to create simulation and physical models as accurate as possible considering the speed of simulation, the size of the model and final accuracy of results. 
• Optionally, also port the methodology to other technologies.
  
  

Your profile

• Master 2

• Appreciated: Familiar with ADC architectures

We offer

Joining Melexis for your internship is the opportunity to build up your know-how in a high-tech, international and dynamic company, benefit from the experience and training of our experts and enjoy the welcoming and friendly atmosphere of our Paris office team which is specialized in Digital Design and counts 20 employees.
