Senior Firmware Engineer (Linux Designer)

Qualcomm, Shanghai, China, Mar 2010-Sep 2015

Key Achievements:

Project #1 Alljoyn and allplay Qualcomm smart audio module for factory mass and test guidance.

Accomplished alljoyn and allplay Qualcomm smart audio module Factory Mass production diagnose guidance. Design reference fixture for product line testing. Design audio module GPIO, I2S, Ethernet, USB, SPI, UART,LED, interfaces verification spec, diagnose method and diagnose tools. Chipset Module and mainboard Image upgrade and automatically bring up. Do WIFI throughput, calibration and KPI, verification setup guidance and diagnose methods design.

Technical Difficulties Solved: For mass production in factory, verification need to perform automatically with less manually input, I find a way and design the diagnose equipment and all scripts, programs with only one command in 3 weeks.

Improved key customer satisfaction and relationship with ODM/OEMs such as Panasonic,Samsung etc.

Project #2: Project Manager: VOIP turnkey solution, design VOIP solution architecture,HAL(hardware Adapter Layer,Call control PJmedia APIs. Coding (SPI/PCM/SLIC linux driver in c), call control engine in C++ (10,000 lines+). Unit test, System performance enhance, PCM/SPI/SLIC device drivers developing.

Highlights: For VOIP there is real time requirement, the one way delay is as short as possible, data path from old solution moving data from kernel space to user space or verse vice. The other is fast path and slow path are tightly coupling. I design the architecture to moving data only in kernel space and separate the data path from control path. The one-way delay less than 50ms.

Design an HAL(hardware adapter layer) between SPI/PCM bus and slic interface to encapsulate the implementation of SPI driver and slic(DSP) driver from application. Enhanced code Reusability and portability of VOIP solutions.

Our team shipped a robust and scalable VOIP turnkey solution to market in one year.

Project #3: FPGA/ASIC verification of PCM/SPI bus, audio I2S/I2C/SPDIF bus. Alsa Device drivers design and development, I2S DMA engine and interrupt tuning on QCA home gateway solutions. From Design, coding(C code 1000 lines) testing, porting and performance tuning to reference boards bring up. Use oscilloscope and logic analyzers to debug the HW interfaces and FPGA/ASIC verification.

Technical Difficulties: For verify a new audio IP core and new interface on FPGA, there are bugs in FPGA or in HW circuit, need to find a way to show where it is. I do verification in steps: first step test one directory by using a fixed data in CPU memory. Using logic analyser capture the writing data on i2s to see correctly data from CPU to DMA and the time serial and clocks are correctly there we can find fpga code issue. Second step, not introduce interrupt just polling from i2s bus to cpu DMA, after it is okay. step 3 using interrupt drive the data path.

Accelerated the home gateway chipset layout and solutions ship to market.

Project #4: Daily and nightly build, release tools design and develop with shell, perl and/or python. 1500 lines of scripts

Improved the automatically daily build and nightly build time.
