NVIDIA is hiring eDRAM engineers for possible upcoming PSP-sucessor GPU
NVIDIA is currently recruiting senior eDRAM design engineers. The new job is for a full-time position at NVIDIA’s Santa Clara, California offices. There is no mention what projects the senior eDRAM design engineers will work on, however, the job responsibilities include:
- Transistor level circuit design for Graphics processors and other ASICs targeted at desktop, laptop, workstation, set-top box, wireless and home networking markets.
- Participating in circuit design of eDRAM macros.
- Circuit simulations, layout extractions, timing characterizations and timing file generations.
- Layout floor planning and layout supervisions.
- Circuit level logical function and transistor level verifications.
Other gaming consoles that take advantage of eDRAM include Nintendo’s Gamecube, Wii and Microsoft’s Xbox 360; however, all three consoles feature AMD ATI designed graphics processors. On the eDRAM side of things, IBM recently unveiled the fastest eDRAM technology yet.
