Analog Modules information
What is the difference between Analog Modules vs Digital Signal Processors?
| Aspect | Analog Modules | Digital Signal Processors |
|---|---|---|
| Function | Process continuous analog signals | Process discrete digital signals |
| Required Credentials | Electronics or electrical engineering certifications | Electronics or electrical engineering certifications |
| Work Environment | Laboratories, manufacturing, field installations | Embedded systems, software development labs |
| Industry Usage | Telecommunications, audio, instrumentation | Audio processing, communications, automation |
Analog Modules focus on processing continuous signals in various industries, while Digital Signal Processors handle digital data for complex computations. Both roles often require similar technical credentials and are used in overlapping environments, but their core functions differ significantly in signal type and application.

Job description
Careers that change lives start here. Medtronic is a global leader in healthcare technology with a Mission to alleviate pain, restore health, and extend life. Our 95,000 employees work across more than 150 countries to put patients first - developing innovative medical technologies that improve the lives of 72+ million patients each year. Your unique talents will help shape the future of healthcare while building a career grounded in purpose, growth, and impact.
A Day in the LifeAt Medtronic, our ASICs contribute to human welfare by restoring health and extending life; it's part of our Mission. We have an integrated Mixed-Signal ASIC team contributing to the implementation and innovation of cardiac pacing, defibrillation, and monitoring therapies. This means our designers need to understand and participate in the big picture of how their work impacts the end user, a patient. Opportunities to meet doctors and witness implants directly connect our work to patient outcomes and lives.At Medtronic, we bring bold ideas forward with speed and decisiveness to put patients first in everything we do. In-person exchanges are invaluable to our work. We're working a minimum of 4 days a week onsite as part of our commitment to fostering a culture of professional growth and cross-functional collaboration as we work together to engineer the extraordinary.

As Senior Analog IC Design Engineer you will be working on Medtronic's next generation of Cardiac Rhythm Management (CRM) products, supported by our designers through roles including requirements definition, design exploration and implementation, simulation analysis, circuit evaluation and verification, physical design, lab testing supporting characterization and formal verification, production test, and other tasks in the development of implantable cardiac devices.
Specific Responsibilities:
- Specify, develop and design analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits as individual contributor and through coaching of peer and less-experienced teammates.
- Define direction for circuit innovation and changes through gathering and reduction of requirements or needs from product, project, systems, test, research, or firmware engineering.
- Foster communication and collaboration across team and supporting departments.
- Take ownership and responsibility for design(s) through entire development cycle from concept through release to production.
- Create schematics and verification simulations within Cadence EDA tools
- Develop and maintain simulation testbenches using Spectre and ADE to verify functionality and ability to meet specifications over PVT variations.
- Integrate test strategy into design for highly testable ICs or built-in self-test architectures.
- Integrate designs into Mixed-Signal, AMS, modeling simulations supporting chip-level verification.
- Translate circuit requirements into layout directions that drive signal integrity, matching, thermal, etc.
- Direct and review IC layout activities within Cadence Layout tools.
- Create parasitic extraction of physical design and perform impact analysis.
- Specify, direct and perform design characterization and verification of ICs and electronic modules.
- Develop, configure, and run complex characterization tests using test and measurement equipment and other lab tools including LabView and Python for automation.
