PCB Layout for consumer audio products. Typical designs contain RF, Power, Digital and Analog circuitry on a single board. Tightly controlled impedance design for reliable and quiet RF and BT antenna circuits is the main priority. These layouts have challenging physical and safety design constraints and focus on cost effective production as well..

Cadence CAE onsite at Apple Computers

San Jose, CA, US

Part of a 4 member team assigned to adopt a Signal Integrity methodology for DSBU Engineering. My task was to build modules for High-Speed interfaces that could be saved and passed to layout designers with all constraints and routing in place for sensitive interfaces. Learned to use SpectraQuest to do simulations to build Ecsets with pin delays for timing.
