About

Current focus: 'classical' Functional Safety and Safety of AI. Details, not limited to my actual field of work: - Analogue and digital electronics, hardware design (including soldering ability). - Analogue and digital broadcasting, analogue and digital video and audio technology. - Hardware-oriented (assembly – x86) and high-level programming skills (Pascal, Delphi, C), system design (UML). - Microcontrollers – NEC V850 (C, assembly), Atmel, 8051 (assembly), ARM Cortex M3, R4F (C), SW and HW knowledge on each processors, Z80 (auld lang syne – ZX Spectrum). - Compilers – GHS Multi, Keil, IAR with its IDE and TI's Code Composer Studio. - Debugging – Lauterbach with Trace32 and platform specific HW debuggers. - Programmable logics – FPGA, CPLD – Xilinx (HDL design and physical build-up knowledge, e.g. Virtex I, II, II-Pro, Spartan II, IIE, 3 and 6), Xilinx ISE. - HDL design – mainly VHDL, partly Verilog. - Mixed signal – PSoCs – (PSoc 3 and PSoC 5LP) – Cypress. - DSP knowledge – Texas, Motorola, Analog Devices. - CAD softwares – circuit simulators (Tina, PSpice, Multisim and LTSpice), PCB design (OrCAD, Eagle, Protel, Altium Designer and P-CAD)) and PSoC Creator – Cypress. - Matlab, Simulink (including generate HDL code from model (Xilinx System Generator for DSP)). - CAN and FlexRay networks in the automotive field. - Vector’s software tools – CANape, CANoe, CANalyzer and CANFlash. - Relatively high knowledge about new hardware architectures (self-educated from many ources, e.g. book of ‘Advanced Computer Architectures’). Other skills: - Tool chain – Synergy, Change, DOORS, codeBeamer, Rhapsody (and other UML tools), SVN, PVCS, Git, Jira. - Development processes/methodologies: mainly V-model, partly Agile (Scrum). - Automotive and industrial safety standards (ISO 26262, ISO 13849, IEC 61508). - Safety of AI, interest and research - e.g. ISO 8800. - Functional safety in semiconductor development. - Functional safety analysis experience: System FMEA, Component FMEDA, FTA, DFA. - AUTOSAR, Automotive SPICE. - MISRA C programming and deep C knowledge from experience and advanced C trainings. - Microsoft Office (Word, Excel and etc.), DOS scripting. - A very basic Linux knowledge.
