Öffentlicher Dienst: PhD in Analog- und Mixed-Signal-IC-Design in Dresden
In Zeiten, in denen jeder über künstliche Intelligenz spricht, stellt sich die Frage: Wer entwickelt die dafür nötigen Chips? Wir tun das! Möchtest du die Entwicklung einer neuartigen, hoch effizienten AI-Hardwarplattform als Doktorand*in vorantreiben? In enger Zusammenarbeit mit renommierten Partnern aus Wissenschaft und Industrie in Deutschland und Europa, erforschen wir analoge Beschleuniger unter Verwendung innovativer, nicht-flüchtiger Speichermodule!
Genauer gesagt arbeiten wir mit ferroelektrischen Speichern, die es ermöglichen, AI-Algorithmen im Bereich Deep Learning in widerstandsbasierten Kreuzpunktstrukturen mit extrem niedrigem Energieverbrauch und hoher Geschwindigkeit zu berechnen. Dabei entwickeln wir eine zukunftsweisende Computation-in-Memory (CIM)-Lösung für den KI-Beschleuniger-Design unter Verwendung fortschrittlicher CMOS-Technologien wie FDSOI und FinFET. Datenwandler (ADC und DAC) spielen hierbei eine entscheidende Rolle.
Was du tun wirst:
Entwerfen und Implementieren von analogen und mixed-signal Schaltungen wie ADC, DAC, PLL und CIM-Arrays
Validieren der Schaltplänen durch Simulation
Automatisieren der Entwürfe mithilfe von Skill-Programmierung
Entwickeln von Verhaltensmodellen zur Schaltkreisüberprüfung
Kommunizieren mit Projektpartnern und Präsentieren von Ergebnissen auf Konferenzen
Was du mitbringst:
Du hast ein abgeschlossenes Studium in Elektrotechnik, Elektronik oder einem ähnlichen Bereich und ein tiefes Verständnis für Mixed-Signal-Schaltung. Erfahrung in Deep Learning oder Hardware-Entwicklung ist ein Plus! Du verfügst über starke analytische Fähigkeiten und engagiere dich klar für qualitativ hochwertige wissenschaftliche Veröffentlichungen.
Bei uns erwartet dich eine spannende Promotionsarbeit mit hervorragender Betreuung und vielen Möglichkeiten zur persönlichen und beruflichen Entwicklung. Flexible Arbeitszeiten und die Möglichkeit zum mobilen Arbeiten unterstützen die Work-Life-Balance.
Wir freuen uns auf deine Bewerbung! Fraunhofer steht für wissenschaftliche Exzellenz und Innovation — sei ein Teil davon!
Everyone is talking about artificial intelligence. But who is developing the necessary chips? We are, for example!Would you like to help drive the development of a new highly efficient AI hardware platform as a doctoral student? At , in collaboration with renowned German and European partners from science and industry, we are developing analog accelerators using novel non-volatile memory chips! By merging logic and memory elements, costs and the required wafer area can be minimized, and above all, energy efficiency and speed can be maximized. Specifically, in this project we are using ferroelectric memories, which can calculate AI algorithms from the field of deep learning in resistive crossbar structures with extremely low power consumption and high speed.We are working on futuristic technologies in the field of machine learning and computer vision. Hence, we investigate and develop an innovative computation-in-memory (CIM) solution for artificial intelligence accelerator design in advanced CMOS technologies such as FDSOI and FinFET. Data converters (ADC and DAC) play a crucial role in such advanced CIM technology; hence, we are looking for a highly motivated analog and mixed signal design PhD student.Want to get more information?
