Summary
The wireless SoC Radio group designs kingdom-of-art especially power green CMOS radios, from RF to bits. To deliver these radios, our group is responsible for the design of a huge variety of RF, analog, and mixed-sign blocks from RF front-stop amplifiers to facts converters, along with baseband filters, baseband and RF phase-locked loops, crystal oscillators, and bandgap references. We're operating on new technology that transform the person enjoy at the product level, all of which is pushed via a international-magnificence vertically included engineering team spanning RF/Analog structure and layout, systems/PHY/MAC structure and design, VLSI/RTL layout and integration, Emulation, layout Verification, check and Validation, and FW/SW engineering.
As an RFIC design engineer, you may be at the center of this wi-fi SoC design organization. You will have a vital impact on developing Apple’s cutting-edge radios and getting them into masses of hundreds of thousands of products.
