Hey LinkedIn! 👋 If you're new to following me, I talk about #hardwork, #electricalengineer, #fpgadesign, #hardwareengineer, and #trading. Each topic has its own unique challenges and rewards. As an electrical engineer, I work on designing and developing electrical systems. It's a demanding field that requires precision and attention to detail. FPGA design is another area of interest for me. It's a complex process that involves designing and programming field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). Hardware engineering is an exciting field that requires creativity and problem-solving skills. It's amazing to see ideas come to life in the form of physical products. Lastly, trading is a passion of mine. It's a constantly evolving industry that challenges me to stay on top of market trends and news. Let me know which topic interests you the most! ✒️ I'm always happy to share my experiences and insights. #engineering #trading #career #interests #professionaldevelopment

Random thought. Some people in LinkedIn may notice that my technical post spread across pretty wide areas, from power MOSFET characteristic, HW development, control design, firmware programming, python applications, and lastly magnetic analysis. A few last bits that I still have yet to learn is to design following the compliance requirement, though I have recently dipping toe on EMI troubleshooting too. As a PhD candidate, before graduation, I was really hoped to work for the #1 worldwide power electronic company that is based in Taoyuan, Taiwan (where I also currently live and work, albeit with different employer). Though I actually never even received any interview call from this one company (except only one before I joined my current employer, which was also not fruitful). At times I used to compare myself with some classmates who is currently or used to be working there. But, it was hard for me to understand why all my job application was failed (not even getting any callback). Until recently I realized that, in a big corporation the working style is highly niche (I won't call it specialization, due to a few reasons I often see). Where, I won't be easy to fit into the work culture anyway with me being a big mess of generalist+specialist as I will over-reach too far. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise, I guess. Quick example, I was once working as FW engineer as my title and I tell the HW engineer (and made them fuming at me) that their 1.5kW design won't go beyond 900W (perhaps ~1kW with screaming fan) and also pointed out a few fatal mistake just by checking the design before even ever write the controller code for it. At the end, my estimate was true that I need to stop at 900W as the mosfet temp goes beyond 105C at room temp in just over 5 mins.

🔥As an embedded systems engineer Analog-to-Digital Conversion (ADC): is a device that allows the MCU to read analog signals from sensors (Temperature sensing, Voltage monitoring, Audio processing), switches, and other sources and convert them into digital values that can be processed by the MCU. Some key concepts related to ADCs: ✔️1. Sampling rate: Frequency at which the analog input is sampled and converted to a digital value. ✔️2. Resolution: Number of bits used to represent the analog input voltage. ✔️3. Step size: Represents the change in voltage that corresponds to a change of 1 bit in the digital output. ✔️4. Quantization: Assigning a digital value to an analog input voltage. #ADC #embeddedsystems #interviews

What’s your view on giving major complex ASIC design task to a very senior verification engineer? In my view, verification engineers are great architects, in addition to being verifiers of complex design. But designing complex area and timing efficient logic is a different beast compared to writing (behavioral) verification logic. I recently came across a project, where a very senior verification engineer is given responsibility of major IP design. And guess what, most of the logic is “not” area efficient. Complex arithmetic operators, which should be shared, are not shared and code simply looks like a test bench….. Would love to hear thoughts from experienced ASIC professionals.
