Entrepreneur, inventor (heading towards 30 patents).I have been trained as an electronics based software engineer, and have spent the larger part of my work sofar on the border between algorithms and implementations. In that line of activity I have deeply been involved on low level hardware (full custom, design standard cells, analog) mid level hardware (HDL, peripherals, small chips) up to more complex systems involving hardware and software. My strongest side is probably my algorithmic-look-on-problems.Goal:Be on the bridge between market pull and technology push. I am a big believer in the balance between the two, and want to develop stuff that is here to stay. This means: market needs it, and the technology is as simple as can be.Current work:In Perscitec we have completed a multimode oscillator (1 crystal, a few deviant oscillator circuits, correction circuits) in which we have shown probably worlds first triple mode oscillator to be feasible and of major interest, as the influence of the oscillation circuits on the oscillation detuning is, for first and second order effects, nil. Further I continue to work on frequency converters, PLL's.Future:Keep on working for third parties, get multimode to the market in some shape or form, return to ADC's and DAC's as I did once for a caliper chip (in reference to Jan Landvik to whom I still owe a lot).

Director/Sr Chip ArchitectZarlink Semiconductor Xic Bv Jul 1988 - Feb 2012After selling XIC to Microsemi (then Mitel, inbetween Zarlink) in charge of Rotterdam center till feb 2012. In this capacity the majority of my patents were established in PLL's (see Microsemi's timing solutions: from 1994 straight till today, almost all digital timing solutions inclusive the Timing-Over-Packets portfolio). Next to this some extra's like fast asynchronous counters. -

OwnerX Integrated Circuits Bv Jul 1988 - May 2001I have been developing many IC's, PCB's, software, architectures and such, as director and owner of XIC, for third parties. Examples of experience are calipers (microwatts range, measuring down to aF, so countable numbers of electrons!), organ chip, FFT processor, delta sigma converters, but also real time software under windows 3.11 (really!), a complete interactive tv decoder (VEIL based), digital PLL's, low cost cable modems with GSMK for switching multitaps, security software and such.Specialties:- async designs- architectures- innovative designs
