  • Work with engineering personnel to establish design parameters and ensure electronic designs comply with design validation and product specifications.
  • Schematic capture, layout, and component placement using Altium Designer
  • Knowledge of proper layout techniques for RF designs ranging up to 2.4GHz
  • Full understanding of PCB and PCBA manufacturing and assembly processes with the ability to incorporate requirements into design rule definitions
  • Knowledge of proper layout techniques for EMI/EMC compliance.
  • Designed up to 14-layer SerDes RF layouts with high-density component placement and routing, utilizing blind/buried vias. Collaborated with the SI team and application engineers to route high-speed RF traces for Texas Instruments.
  • Skilled in routing high-speed differential pair arc traces with length matching techniques.
  • Experienced in layout constraint settings, stackup updating, and updating fab notes as per the layout. Ensured drill drawings matched the layout, including adding fab notes for via plugging and filling details.
  • Designed layouts using components such as USB, HDMI, and camera interface connectors.
  • Placed components for various packages such as QFN and BGA, and routed BGAs with up to 256 pins
  • Designed over 50 low-power layouts for Texas Instruments.
  • Collaborated with the design verification engineer to perform DFM and DFA checks, while also overseeing the creation and management of essential PCB design documents.
  • Generating PCB & Assembly Documentation: ODB++, BOMs, Fab and Assembly Drawings
  • Collaborated closely with PCB manufacturers to address engineering queries (EQ).

Projects

Energy Monitoring System (Altium software):  

  • Designed 8-layer power amplifier board with a 40A current rating, using 2 oz copper thickness, 90 mil board thickness, and FR-4 dielectric material.
  • Obtained input amp ratings for different nets, calculated shapes using Saturn PCB, and achieved the desired current rating.
  • This board serves as the base for other microcontroller boards that are housed within the enclosure.
  • Performed footprint creation, component placement, and set constraints, including physical spacing, plane segmentation, and output generation

High-Frequency PCB (Altium software): 

  • Designed 10-layer PCB with a 0.5 mm pitch BGA
  • The design is an analog-to-digital converter, considering mixed signal (analog and digital) routing and separating the ground reference.

LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) Modules (Altium software):  

  • Designed 2-layer PCB with a Display
  • 2-layer PCB (Printed Circuit Board) has two layers of copper, one on each side of the board. This allows for more complex circuits compared to a single-layer
  • For a 4-inch LCD module, it typically uses an SPI interface for communication and has an internal controller for drawing points, lines, circles, and rectangles

Isolation Transformer Design (Altium software):

  • Designed 4-layer PCB
  • Build a DC-DC converter with isolation to provide a stable and isolated power supply for sensitive electronic circuits.
