qualifications with TI products.
* Design system architectures for high-power-density DC-DC converters,
intermediate bus converters (IBCs), and HVDC power delivery solutions.
* Develop power system specifications, requirements, validation plans,
reference designs, lab data, application notes, testing guidance, and
technical collateral relevant to Data Center power applications.
* Collaborate with IC design, magnetics, packaging, thermal, and firmware for
total system solutions.
* Perform modeling and simulation using tools such as SIMPLIS, SPICE, MATLAB,
or equivalent.
* Analyze system performance including system control stability, efficiency,
transient response, EMI, thermal behavior, and fault protection.
* Contribute to demos, simulations, validation work, and technical
presentations as needed
* Support the sales team by providing the training course, technical guidance,
joining customer discussions, helping position TI solutions against
application requirements, and contributing to design-in success at key
accounts.
