Qualifications:
Montreal, QC
Responsibilities:
- FPGA verification using different verification methods and tools, such Modelsim, Vivado, JTAG or real time test on target.
- HDL implementation of different DSP methods such as tracking loop, correlator, digital filter, AGC or FFT
- HDL implementation of different IO, such as SPI, UART, I2C and ARINC
- Integrating the FPGA or ASIC with embedded software on a CPU or with analog circuits, such as attenuator or synthesizer
Qualifications:
- Good experience in verifying complex digital systems.
