- 1990 to present
-
- PROJECT LEADER. Responsible for system hardware design,
- implementation and characterization of controller boards and
- subsystems for S780 In-Circuit tester. Managed system-wide
- projects, such as universal AC/DC, controller, and interconnect
- subsystems.
-
- o Completed design and manufacturing introduction of System
- Control Card (SCC) for S780/S790 test systems. Features
- include real-time parallel and serial port controller/monitor
- using the VME bus interface, utilizing Programmable Logic
- (PAL) and FPGA.
-
- o Designed and introduced to manufacturing the protocol-controlled
- Serial Port Interface Board (SPIB). Reduced hardware and software
- overhead by using the MC68050 programmable micro-controller.

-
- STAFF DESIGN ENGINEER. Responsible for design and simulation of ASIC
- gate array, ECL/CMOS logic design and test developments.
-
- o Designed, developed, and verified the latch buffer gate array,
- using the VTI CMOS process, achieving higher current output
- drive and lower noise on power bus and switching outputs.
-
- o Produced full-fledged design and fabrication of Pin Control
- assembly for a low-cost test system utilizing double-sided
- surface mount technology to achieve higher device density on
- board. Features included mixed ECL and CMOS ASICs in timing
- and logic paths.
-
- o Automated the S70 and ECL interface module, including
- instruments such as HP5328 counter-timer and HP8016 word
- generator to test high-speed ECL boards. Wrote extensive
- MEDIATOR and Pascal programs to control the interface and
- instruments.

- utilized 100K ECL logic and Programmable Logic Array (PAL).
-
- o Led project for the 100MHz option of the Sentry 50, including
- precise coordination of activities of hardware design,
- modification of software diagnostics, and calibration efforts
- for on-time delivery to customers.
-
- o Integrated and brought-up various high-speed boards for Sentry
- 50/100MHz test systems. Wrote extensive diagnostic programs
- to debug and troubleshoot the timing multiplexer and formatting
- boards.

-
- DESIGN ENGINEER. Responsible for design and development of ASIC gate
- arrays for the S50 test system.
-
- o Designed, implemented, simulated, and tested various ASICs
- using the 100K ECL National process, including timing and
- formatting gate arrays. These gate arrays were used in the
- shared-timing architecture of the Sentry 50 test system, and
- included multiplexing features for maximum number of timing
- paths, lowest possible noise and cross-talk, with minimum
- path-to-path skew delay.
