Have worked in a variety of roles starting as a system-level hardware designer designing optical fiber communications equipment in Japan. Subsequently worked in semiconductor industry as an applications engineer supporting telecom and networking ICs for technologies such as T1/E1, SONET/SDH, ATM, and Ethernet. Wrote datasheets, application notes, designed evaluation boards, and reference designs, and was primary technical point of contact for customers. Also did extensive lab bench validation work of silicon to confirm correct functionality and compliance with relevant standards. Eventually managed the applications team. On occasion, did digital design of various IP blocks using Verilog or VHDL. Designed FPGAs both for pre-tape out emulation of IP or for use on evaluation boards. Experience with serial interface technologies including USB2.0, PCI Express and SATA, doing compliance testing in lab, and working with test and product engineering team to resolve issues with transceiver test programs. Later, transitioned into a systems engineering role where I attended industry standards meetings such as IEEE 802 to represent employer and track status, did product definition and architecture and wrote specs. Earned an MSEE with concentration on digital communications and DSP. Subsequently applied this knowledge developing WLAN MAC and PHY baseband blocks and most recently as an RF systems engineer focusing on Bluetooth and UWB radio architecture, specification and algorithm development. Specialties Digital communications, wireless and wired connectivity technologies (802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth, UWB, USB, Ethernet, PCIe), PHY and MAC layer development for wireless and wired communications, DSP, high-frequency PCB design and signal integrity, RF knowledge, optical fiber communications, digital circuit design, FPGA design, lab validation of silicon, fluent spoken Japanese and proficient written Japanese read more ...
