About

Over 20 years of experience in Analog and Mixed-Signal Integrated Circuit Design. Current experience with 0.18um CMOS and BiCMOS ADCs, DACs, low-noise front-ends, design for test, wide temperature operation, full-chip mixed-signal modeling and simulation. Multidisciplinary experience with ESD, EMC, package stress, thermal gradients, and automotive functional safety (ISO26262). Past experience in PLLs, GHz speed CML/ECL, SiGe, GaAs and InP HBTs. Over 30 years of experience in Electrical Engineering, including design of microprocessor controlled transducer circuits for military applications. Goal: to continue developing my career in integrated circuit design, working in roles commensurate with my experience and with opportunities for new ones. Specialties: Design of ADCs, DACs, mixed signal modeling, and full-chip simulation for integrated magnetic sensor chips.
