Career Objective

Seeking a position with the opportunity to best utilize and further develop

my ELECTRONIC, HARDWARE, DESIGN ENGINEERING, and PROJECT capabilities with

an eventual leadership position. Core competencies include:

ASIC System Design ( Microwave/RF Design ( Digital Signal Processing (

Product Development ( Power Electronics

Education

Degrees:

Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (2007), New Jersey Institute of

Technology, NJ

Bachelor of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering (2004), Rutgers

University, NJ

Core Competencies and Projects:

< Lead a four-person team that utilized VHDL, Verilog, and Mentor Graphics

tools to develop and simulate an 8x8 load-balanced combined input-

crosspoint buffered packet switch that used small crosspoint buffers with

virtual output queues.

< Designed a hybrid coupler at ISM frequency band of 2.45 GHz with lumped

elements and Microstrip transmission lines on FR-4 substrate using Ansoft

Designer software, simulated for complex S in dB and phase. Through the

design gained practical knowledge of waveguides, transmission line theory,

scattering parameters, power dividers, directional couples, phase

shifters, smith chart, LC matching, single stub tuning, microstrip

matching networks, passive and active components, microwave transistor

amplifier design, VSWR circles, noise in 2-port networks.

< Employed micromachining technology to design a miniaturized acceleration

sensor, which was fabricated by exploring the design parameter space using

appropriate design equations. The design parameters were chosen from

practical ranges allowed by the semiconductor micromachining technology.

< Designed a two-stage fully differential voltage-voltage amplifier using

HSPICE, PSPICE and Avanwaves simulator with 0.35 micron TSMC MOS models

according to desired specifications.

< Designed, implemented, and configured a multithreaded UNIX web server and

client in C/C++ programming language.

< Fabricated a two-input logic gate using a one-micron process; performed

all needed MATLAB calculations and SUPREM simulations in addition to

various processing steps, including etching, photolithography, and

diffusion.

< Provided custom layout design and simulation of a 32-bit floating point

microprocessor ALU using Cadence IC design tools such as icfb and silicon

ensemble. Steps included: RTL synthesis, chip floorplanning, place and

route, timing analysis.

< Designed various DC/DC converter topologies based on given specifications

using steady state power converter modeling, semiconductor power switch

realization, AC circuit modeling converter, small signal transfer

functions, controller design, magnetic theory and transformer design.

Dealt with efficiency, switching losses, amount of ripple generated etc.

< Acquired practical knowledge of DSP IIR filter design, FIR filter design,

DSP algorithm implementation and applications through a project work that

consisted of a digital filter design using Butterworth polynomials and

bilinear transformation techniques as well as MATLAB to meet the desired

specifications.
