How do you get into Analog Design?

How do you get into Analog Design?

Done with my MS.

I don’t have a tapeout.

I have projects. (LDO, op amps and Buck/Boost converters)

How do I get a job as an entry level analog design engineer?

Can’t seem to find any positions. The few I found didn’t even shortlist me for an interview.

What does it take to be an entry level analog design engineer?

How do I know the limits of a technology (PDK) for Analog Design?

Hey all.

I am working on some personal project. I wish to design and test a folded cascode amp and use it for an LDO too.

I want to come up with some specifications for my OP Amp.

I want to set a certain gain, slew rate for output and power consumption. How can I decide what values should be a good target spec?

Say I set the gain target to be 60dB (which is modest for a folded cascode amp). Now how do I know whether it is attainable and I am not being limited by the technology itself. There is only so many tuning knobs that I could turn. At what point do I know I have squeezed the maximum performance out of that technology.

Also, how can I come up with reasonable specs for my project circuits (if I don’t have a customer setting the specs for me).

I understand that this is a very open ended question with no definite answer, but any advice from experienced designers would be appreciated!

I am using GPDK045 1v transistors. (If that helps)

G14 2024 4070 Black screen No ROG Logo

Hey all!

I have a G14 4070.

It used to work fine, but i have had this same black screen issue before once. At that time, since it was in warranty, Asus fixed it for free. I believe they replaced the screen and formatted the SSD.

This time, whenever I turn on the laptop, the keyboard lights up (gradually with the backlight brightness increasing in 3 levels).

Nothing else happens. I am having a bad taste with this laptop now. I really want to love it, but it just down feel reliable.

Anyhow, has anyone faced the same problem and got it fixed somehow?

Things I have tried:

  1. Hardware reset by holding down the power button for 40 sec, 1 min and 2 min both on charging and on battery

  2. Let it completely discharge and then retry again.

Nothing seems to work yet!

Any help is appreciated!
