PROFILE

Team-oriented Electrical Engineer with 35 years experience in designing,

developing and testing electronic products. Designed circuits using FPGAs,

primarily for PLL-based systems for telecom products - especially high

precision stratum 3E devices. Designed timing products utilizing a GPS

receiver as a high-accuracy timing source. Analog design experience with

oscillators such as TCXOs, VCOs, VCXOs and ovenized oscillators. Worked on

a system level managing design, manufacture and troubleshooting of air-to-

ground phones.
