Project Description

A new trend in consumer electronic devices are so-called “natural interfaces” – human machine interfaces like voice recognition, gesture recognition, character recognition, position & orientation detection, eye tracking, … which allow a more intuitive and productive user experience. The automotive market is expected to follow this trend, because users will expect the same experience in their car. Additionally, these kind of interfaces are beneficial for a safer driving experience (keep eyes on the road, not on the radio). Melexis aims to be a leading supplier of IC solutions in this market. To be at the forefront of customer needs and to be able to offer solutions for their specific challenges, in-house application development with our products is essential to demonstrate new functions or specific features.

because users will expect the same experience in their car. Additionally, these kind of

interfaces are beneficial for a safer driving experience (keep eyes on the road, not on

the radio).

Multiple suppliers in automotive and non-automotive markets are marketing new

products for these applications. Some of the sensors in use for gesture recognition are

touch-based capacitive, near field capacitive, ultrasound, thermal, optical proximity and

3D cameras. It is important to understand the key benefits and drawbacks of these

sensors, for the technical discussions with customers and to improve our product

portfolio.

IC continuity test : autocreate tool

Function Test

Project Description

An important part of every testsolution used for checking integrated circuits in our

manufacturing facilities is the continuity test.

Continuity test checks the connection between DUT (Device Under Test) and the

handler (Machine that automate the handling of parts). Actually it is checking that every

pin of the DUT is electrically connected to the ATE (Automated Test Equipment).

As every project in Melexis needs this test we have developed a tool to create it for the

specific needs of the project. With the first generation tool with which we have good

experiences, but some gaps are identified. Some additional tests are to be added, also

some basic characterization specific to 1 pin behavior, etc.

The existing tool that written in perl. For the 2nd gen there is freedom of choice; An

idea is to use web + php.

Project: VoltageSpike detector

Function Test

Project Description

During the testing of integrated circuits the ATE (Automated Test Equipment) uses

different internal resources and stimuli to have all the testmodes tested.

During this testprogram sequence it is mandatory that no uncontrolled voltage spikes

appear on any pin of the DUT (Device Under Test)

These voltages spikes can be induced by range switches, relays switching, … in the

ATE and on the interface boards.

During the validation of a testsolution a mandatory check is detect any spike on any pin

of the DUT.

To further optimize the efficiency and effectiveness of the testsolution development we

need the next step in the atomization of this validation test.

This topic is 2 folded. On one hand there is the hardware to observe spikes via

oscilloscope, and on the other hand there is the reporting, the automatic detection

where such a spike is located, correlate back to test-name using testtime report.

Project goals

Understanding of the mechanism behind the voltage spike and rules

Project: Analog in Digital

Development

Project Description

To handle the increased complexity and requirements of the current generation of

electronic circuits, there is a strong drive towards ever decreasing technology nodes.

Analog circuit, different from digital circuits, does not scale well to lower technology

nodes. This means that the expected area and cost decrease, is not always present in

lower technology nodes.

One way to take maximal advantage of the scaling is to implement analog functionality

in digital blocks, while taking maximal advantage of the strengths of this digital

implementation to increase performance.

Project goals

Design, simulation and implementation of a novel implementation of a temperature

sensor/bandgap for a new generation of Low Voltage and low current consumption

products.

Literature study of possible “Analog in Digital” related techniques, like for example

“Dynamic Element Matching”.

Project: Design of a low power Supply System

Development

Project Description

All electronics require a voltage to operate and consume current when doing so. The

stability of this supply voltage has a significant impact on the accuracy and the

robustness of the electronic circuits being supplied by it.

For battery powered applications, the power consumption of the electronics is critical as

it determines the battery operated life time. To improve life time, there is a strong drive

to lower regulated voltages and lower current consumption. The goal of this project

would be to investigate and implement a low power supply system, consisting of

different blocks. Depending on the time, the scope can be limited to a signal regulator

or be as wide as bandgap, regulator and power on reset (POR) implementation.

Project goals

Design, simulation and implementation of a supply system for a new generation of Low

Voltage and low current consumption products.

Project: Design of a low power Rail-to-rail buffer

Development

Project Description

Although sensors require a considerable amplification of the sensing element signal,

the testability of some internal nodes is crucial for characterization purposes and final

test. For this testability, it is important to bring out these internal nodes on one or more

test pins of the package. The internal nodes are typically higher impedant and hence

have low driving capabilities, so they need to be buffered before bringing them outside.

The difficulty lies in the fact that the internal nodes can have any voltage, so the buffer

should be a rail-to-rail operational, class AB type amplifier. With unity gain, stability is

critical.

Another important design constraint is the offset and offset drift: for accurate

measurements, it is important to minimize these effects. Systematic offsets should be

minimized through proper layout, but the random offset is governed by the matching

and, through Lakshmikumar’s findings, the size – amongst others – of the input

transistors. Proper scaling will have to be done to cover this aspect as well.

Project goals

Design, simulation and implementation of a rail-to-rail testbuffer for a new generation of

Low Voltage and low current consumption products.

Project: Design of a low power RC oscillator

Development

Project Description

The heartbeat of every chip comes from the oscillator. Good stability of this heartbeat is

mandatory for proper functionality, which is linked to process variations and

temperature. The latter introduces a spec on the relative frequency drift, but the

absolute frequency is of utmost importance as well. The design should support

trimming functionality to cope with this requirement. The trimming of the oscillator is

done in final test, and the frequency drift is verified over temperature for 100% of the

parts. In order to guarantee a good yield, 6-sigma design is required.

Project goals

Design, simulation and implementation of an RC oscillator for a new generation of Low

Voltage and low current consumption products.

The Melexis Culture

One thing our employees really like at Melexis is the informal working environment. We

address each other by first name, come to work in casual clothing and have an open

office workspace. Our CEO, is just sitting among the other employees which shows

our open company spirit. Within this flatly structured organization, we

encourage sharing our experiences with others.

This informal, open culture creates a collegial work environment with room for a laugh

and friendship. Our company supports social happenings for employees.

Not only do our employees acknowledge the good working ambient, they find they can

align their jobs with their interests. Some of our engineers even see their job as playing

with electronics while being paid for it. Melexis gives people the opportunity to find their

way to the job they really like to do.

We acknowledge that our employee’s life is about much more than working alone, even

if they like their work and working environment. We try to keep a healthy work-life

balance. To safeguard this balance Melexis also strives to be as flexible an employer

as possible.

At Melexis we offer more than a job alone. We offer you a challenging working

environment with advancement opportunity.
