Ling Shen Email & Phone Number

Ling successfully taped out, and brought up various boards for a given platform. -Define initial board specification to meet overall system requirement, including the knowledge of various subsystems, like video (Display Port), processor, memory, and storage. -Use Cadence or Orcad Schematics capture tool to create board circuit diagram. -Lead Physical Designer to use Allegro layout tool to conduct floor planning on the board, routing study for the buses, define power delivery strategy, as well as the board stack up. -Write the RTL code to control the board reset sequence. -Come up with Test plan to lead the technician to validate the features on the board.-Actively working with China board vendors to ensure the board production meeting schedule.Ling managed to build good relationship with Intel silicon external customers to come up with next generation server platform prototype in the OEM innovation center. -Define one single converge architecture solution to meet the entire server OEM vendor requirement, and build the reference design to demonstrate the silicon with lowest BOM cost.-Working with the internal silicon team to define the system power up sequence and different active power states to achieve the high performance with minimum power consumption.-Actively working on various customer platform failures, by leading the technician to reproduce the customer failure on the internal validation vehicle, debug the cause, and come up with the solution to resolve the issue with highest priority. -Develop detailed prototype hardware development cycle schedule; also coordinate with the internal silicon team in each of the working milestone.

Ling managed with Dell Supplier Quality Management team, it serves as the focal point to discuss and resolve any issues that Dell wants to see the improvement on. The responsibilities including:-Prepare daily failure execution report for both management teams, in this way; they can quickly come up with a compromising solution that enables better yielding for delivering any desktop systems. -Negotiate the validation flow, manufacturing flow, quality verification flow methodologies to improve the process of collaboration between Mitac ODM and DELL. -Provide appropriate volume projection rate to Mitac based on the current weeks DELL’s manufacturing capacity demand, as well as future seasonal demand adjusting factor from the macro environment in the United States, this enables the quick turnaround for DELL, and reasonable inventory control for Mitac. -Ling worked closely with DELL Test Engineer to root cause the defect motherboard by doing thorough failure analysis on different components on the board. These analyses helps to determine with either software fix, or need to take further investigation with different component vendors on possible stepping fix. -During my almost two years stay, our on-site FAE support has been granted consistent quality delivery by Dell. As a result, Dell has expanded Mitac’s presence on several DELL desktop platform roadmaps.
