Internship: Mixed-Signal System Validation laboratory support of Power Management Systems for next generation multi-core microcontrollers in Villach

In general we are looking for students with the willingness to work in a challenging environment within a highly motivated international team. This specific job is suitable for students within technical studies in the field of electronic engineering.

State-of-the-art and complex microcontroller systems demand for cutting-edge validation techniques and a high amount of automatization to fulfill the increasing functionality and cope with the increasing complexity implemented on such systems. In this project, the goal is to evaluate the performance of analog mixed-signal modules present in automotive microcontroller systems.

Main tasks of this proposal can be summarized as:

• Understanding and getting familiar with latest generation automotive microcontroller systems and their peripherals
• Implementation of proof-of-concept/sample source code in C and C++ on a 32bit platform (main CPUs) as well as on an 8bit platform (standby controllers)
• Support of Validation for next generation automotive microcontrollers in the field of Power Management Systems (reset generation, voltage generation w/ DCDC converters and linear regulators, voltage monitoring, temperature monitoring)
• Voltage detectors and ADC characterization
• Test automation (control of test equipment)

Part of your life. Part of tomorrow.

We make life easier, safer and greener – with technology that achieves more, consumes less and is accessible to everyone. Microelectronics from Infineon is the key to a better future. Efficient use of energy, environmentally-friendly mobility and security in a connected world – we solve some of the most critical challenges that our society faces while taking a conscientious approach to the use of natural resources.

In the Automotive (ATV) segment, we develop high-value products and services to advance fully and partly self-driving cars. To enable radar-based advanced driver assistance systems, we deliver end-to-end solutions to capture and process complex, safety-critical data from the vehicle’s surroundings. These include radar sensor ICs as well as microcontrollers optimized for radar signal preprocessing. We are helping to realize the Zero Vision for road traffic safety through our certified components and subsystems. In the connected car of the future, our security microcontrollers will help protect sensitive data more effectively. In addition, ATV is making a valuable contribution to the development of e-mobility. Power semiconductors are driving electric motors and innovative system solutions using silicon carbide are increasing the efficiency and reducing the weight of chargers and inverters. These technologies are paving the way for electric vehicles that offer the same range with smaller batteries. In combustion engines too, power semiconductors are making a difference by reducing exhaust emissions.
