Jim Parsons, the actor who portrays Sheldon Cooper on The Big Bang Theory, is unlikely to have Asperger's Syndrome. He does not seem to have typical behaviors of a person with Asperger's Syndrome when he is interviewed.

"Prady was amused that so many people had glommed onto the theory that Sheldon's idiosyncracies added up to Asperger's, a form of autism. However, Prady never had the syndrome in mind when the character was created. If he had wanted him to be an Aspie, he and Chuck Lorre would have spelled it out from the get-go."

No, Sheldon is a super-genius, with an eidetic memory, and an IQ of 170. Extremely smart people have trouble interacting with anyone else. By the way, it is now speculated that Albert Einstein had a form of autism called Asperger's.

No, the writers of The Big Bang Theory did not intend for Sheldon's character to have any specific disorder, just very socially awkward and immature.

Autism in its TRUE form -- and not just a catch-all phrase for lack of social awareness -- would make it impossible for a person to get a high school degree, let alone a Ph.D.
