Support engineering activities in the design, test, modification, fabrication and assembly or prototype electro-mechanical systems, experimental design circuitry or specialized test equipment.

Responsible for technical support, development sustaining engineering for EL backlight driver IC. Interfaces with production and other engineering support groups including design for timely release of new products. Enhance productivity and quality of mature products. Responsible for budget forecasting of future equipment requirements and purchases for the.

Responsible for new DMOS device/product development, specifically surface-mount devices (SO-8 and TSSOP). Conduct device characterization, competitor evaluation, device failure analysis and datasheet generation. Setup and qualified MOSFET test equipments such as Aetrium 5050DTS, Tesec 9110IH and Fettest 34/3600B. Resolved key customer complaints on gross.

Responsible for the transfer of Etch and Photomasking operations of transistor and diode products. Selected to undergo wafer fabrication technology training at National Semiconductor in Sta.Clara,CA.

Responsible for test and finishing of standard diode devices, including wafer probe, final test, marking and reeling. Reduced marker machine downtime from 10% to 3% by developing an ethyl acetate rinse procedure after solder dip process. The process reduced the illegible mark problems. Implemented contact mask design change that improved diode leakage.
