The LSI is developing an ASIC for the CERN calls SAMPA. The SAMPA is a new 32-channel front-end chip for the ALICE TPC and MCH upgrades designed in a 130nm CMOS technology with 1.25V nominal supply voltage. Each channel is composed of a charge sensitive amplifier, a semi-Gaussian shaper, a 10-bit ADC digital filtering DSP and a compression circuitry. The chip was approved by the CERN and is on mass production stage. I am engaged in the ASIC Digital blocks perfoming: - Scripts development for RTL compiler, Conformal and Encounter (EDI) ; - Backend flow of digital blocks using Innovus - Cadence; - Development of tests for SAMPA ASIC (DFT and Encounter Test); - FPGA-Sockit development for tests and DFT usage; - Physical tests and measurements; - Documentation and presentations.
