Remote Aerospace Engineering.

Broomfield, Co, Us

Responsible for the design of defense-oriented systems. The designs used the latest and highest density FPGAs from Xilinx. One design used the Xilinx RFSoC FPGA with RF ADCs, and DACs integrated within the FPGA; this was the first RFSoC design project used at Ball Aerospace. Another design integrated 36 channel 100G InfiniBand Switch used in a custom high-speed backplane; 18 channels are 100G InfiniBand over copper, 18 are over fiber optic, and the highest circuit board clock rates were 26GHz. Worked on a military satellite project. Designed a 1.5KW power supply for a high output airborne RF system.

Responsible for the concept and design of rugged computers for Military and Commercial usage. Designs using Intel, Power PC, ARM, PIC processors, Xilinx, and Altera CPLD/FPGAs. Designs include the following projects: nMAP2/cTWLU/MAP3 – a very successful Multifunction Access Point for commercial airlines, Pagosa (RCLC4) – Rugged high-performance laptop with commercial and military interfaces, RDU and mFoCS – rugged mounted Remote Display Unit for tanks, RailMAP – Access Point for European commercial rail, OSRVT – handheld rugged drone control and display unit, Smart T - Military Portable Satellite Synchronous serial communication computer, MMS – Helicopter Map Data Server, NP4840 -Commercial Aircraft cockpit Thermal Postscript printer, RHTU – Military Rugged Handheld Terminal Unit, SMM – C130 aircraft Data Server, NMT – Navy Multiband Terminal, CI - Commanders Interface Mortar Fire Terminal, and other Military and commercial devices.

Responsible for the design of ruggedized Military and commercial computer systems. Involvement is from concept to hardware design to release designs to production. Design involvement is a combination of hardware, software, and system engineering. Microcontroller-based designs using Motorola HC11, HC16, Intel 8051, and Microchip PIC processors. Microcontroller software is in C and assembly language. Diagnostics for PC cards written in C and C++. CPLD designs using Actel CPLD using a Mentor Graphics system.
