In the past thirteen years I have provided support for
companies seeking experience in integrated circuit layout and verification.
I have extensive experience creating compact full custom layouts using a
broad variety of different semiconductor processes. My projects have
included building low voltage and high voltage analog circuits, custom and
semi-custom digital circuits, writing verification decks for Cadence and
Tanner tools, and building photo test reticles. I have experience with
Cadence Tools, Tanner Tools, Silvaco Tools and Mentor Calibre software and
have completed approximately 200 chips and circuits in my 25-year career.
