John Johnson V Email & Phone Number

My father, an electronics engineer, paved the way for my baby steps in the electronics and semiconductors realm. Fueled by curiosity, taking inspiration from how deeply this field impacts the technology that runs this world, I have grown to an undergrad specialized in Computer Architecture, Embedded Systems and Digital VLSI.I'm constantly exploring and broadening my cognizance on processing-in-memory, neuromorphic computing, hardware-based encryption, AI/ML accelerators, and heterogeneous/collaborative designs to architect secure, cost-effective, energy-efficient and high-performance processing systems.I currently work on application processors for next generation HMI and edge AI processing in the SoC Boot ROM team at Texas Instruments. Previously as a summer intern in HW Applications team, focusing on external memory peripherals, I have gained experience in setting guidelines for system design and implementation of DDR4/LPDDR4 SDRAM, QSPI/OSPI flash, eMMC and SD/SDIO card with ARM-based SoC family of TI. As part of my academic coursework and projects at NIT Calicut, I have had an exposure to the microarchitecture and assembly/embedded programming of various processors, namely TI TMS320C24x, TI MSP430G2x, Microchip PIC18F452, ARMv7-A, Intel 8086, MIPS32 and have built a Hack CPU.
