Hardware, FPGA IP, and a little "bring up" coding. Mostly been working Sony CMOS sensors up to 4kp60 coupled with Lattice/Xilinx FPGA's, GEO Semi ISP, and TI 4Gig SerDes. All cameras have been POC. Lattice FPGA's : Crosslink/MachXO3. Xilinx FPGA's : Zynq/Ultrascale. RTL and baremetal C projects on both. Orcad Schematic and Allegro Layout (sensors, SerDes, peripherals). Pretty great job!!

Hardware, FPGA IP, and baremetal C code development. Various video platform products from basic analog/digital formats (RGBHV, S, Component, & DVI) up through 1080p60/4k60 HDMI/HDCP. Video transport research via 10GBase-T Ethernet. Hardware generally consisted of Silicon Image/ADI decoders/encoders, X-point switches, Cypress/Silicon Labs Clock generation & distribution. Control via various uCs (i.MX, ColdFire, Kinetis, Nios, Microblaze) running out of DDR2 / DDR3 memory. Interconnect and video transport via 100, 1G, & 10GBase-T Micrel, Marvell, & Aquantia (managed switches & Phys). All designs have included Altera (Cyclone_II through Arria 10) or Xilinx (Kintex-7) FPGA's. Handheld/Desktop/Wall mount Touch Panels utilizing Mips32 and TI OMAP uPs, TI DSPs, Altera FPGAs, DDR/DDR2 memory, 802.11 B/G/N WiFi, chip flash/compact flash/SDIO card nonvolatile memory, Host/Device USB, TI series Audio Codecs, IRDA, LVDS interfaced CCFL & LED Backlit LCDs, with 100base T Ethernet.HDL work consisted of general logic, various video/audio centric IP modules, layer 2 through 4 IP packet building/parsing/switching, and implementing 3rd party IP. Developed associated tcl scripts, *.c, and *.h drivers/headers for use in the Eclipse SBT/SDK environments. Quartus Prime Pro/Vivado for synthesis, Aldec Riviera Pro & Active-HDL for simulation, and the Eclipse SBT/SDK tools for the embedded firmware generation.

Responsible for the design & development of hardware, logic, and low level/driver firmware required in the integration of various liquid crystal based optical components. Products consisted of Optical Harmonic Equalization modules, Optical Attenuation modules, Optical frequency splitter modules, Optical Multiplexor & De-mulitplexing modules. Products were targeted at long haul high bandwidth optical backbone telecommunications.

Responsible for concept, design (hardware, logic, and embedded coding), layout, bring up/debug, and delivery of various automotive services diagnostic equipment products.Mulitple patents awarded.
