- 20 years industry Experience in ASIC Verfiication and embedded firmware
for audio(Isochronous USB handheld audio players), disc drives(ATA and
SCSI, and imaging products(digital still camera).
- I've been frequently called a "bridge person" because I bridge the gap
between hardware and software -- working on chip architecture,
verification, tools, writing the actual firmware and bringing up new
hardware. Single Point Source is my software version of "bridging" the
gap between groups.
- 15 for 15 successful SOCs were functional on first silicon.
- Modeling experience with VHDL (wrote a 80C196 fully functionally model
with the ability to run 'C' tests in simulation - over 13 years ago!) , IrDA,
UART I2S, S/PDif, and many Imaging tools (Bayer to RGB Interpolation,
CMOS Sensor modelling, Decimation and matching algortihms written for
the DSP, Defective Pixel Correction by myself on the customized DSP).
- DSP cycle accurate modelling for custom video DSP (VLIW and SIMD)
written in C++.
- Board bring-up of new silicon and new RDK (Reference Design Kit) or
SDK(Software Design kit).
- To make developing systems easier, I have developed many tools such as
SPS.
- TI 6713, Code Composer and TI RTOS as a system controller with an in-
house FPGA for audio enhancements.
- Precise RTOS with embedded ARC microprocessor for a custom SoC for
audio devices (using Isochronous USB).
