      Digital Design Engineer Interview

      17 Apr 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Raleigh, NC
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Qualcomm (Raleigh, NC) in Mar 2015

      Interview

      Phone interview followed by on-site three weeks later. They were designing their own transaction protocol based on the AMBA AXI/ACE spec. I was fortunate to have studied the same for two months for directed research under a professor. I could tackle AXI questions. Interview went well. Didn't nail it but not too bad. Got a verbal offer three weeks later. Got the formal letter 1.5 weeks after the verbal. Few details: 1. Had interview with three panels consisting of 2-4 members each. 2. Questions on bus architecture, synthesis, protocols, verilog, and certain design problems. 3. 1 major design question by each panes, takes 15-20 mins to solve; related to logic design--flip-slops, decoders, etc.

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      What are the channel in AXI and ACE? What is cache coherency?

      Question 2
