Chip bring up, hardware platform bring up

 Created schematics in mentor graphics for controller boards of RF matrices. Defined CAN bus and RS232 protocols for communication between various subsystems and components of RF matrices. Developed new firmware for controller boards of RF matrices. Firmware included CAN bus and RS232 communication, command interpretation, command execution, and I/O control.  Maintained, debugged, and added new features to existing firmware.  Resolved hardware / software issues during system integration. Performed prototype bring up and debugging.  Designed hardware connection details to connect computer modules, touch screens, displays, matrix controller boards, and RF switch modules for RF switch matrices.  Created software and hardware requirements for outsourced designs and worked closely with consultants to ensure proper functionality. Resolved technical issues reported by customers. Trained a team of 4 technicians to operate and debug various RF matrices, resulting in less engineering involvement in production tests and fixing RMAs.  Worked with QA team to obtain UL and CE certification for RF matrices. Conducted extensive tests on a 4x4 RF matrix to prepare for LXI certification.  Created detailed documentation, such as user manuals, hardware and software test procedures, wiring diagrams, and installation procedures for each new RF matrix designed.

 Supervised and analyzed AVV test results for new silicon to identify shortcomings in ATE testing.  Silicon bring-up on design validation boards.  Supported FAEs to resolved issues on customer end.  Customer support for UTOPIA, timer and interrupt modules for TMS320C64x series.  Created datasheets, user guides and application notes
