ACHIEVEMENTS
• Leaded and entirely designed a digital camera PCB .The PCB is composed of a daughter Board which contains a digital CMOS sensor and a mother Board which contains the FPGA, the SDRAM, the USB microcontroller and hundred of other components. I actively participiated in all the steps of the design flow (Architecture, Schematics, Layout, FPGA Design & Verification , Validation, Fabrication, Assembly, customer contact & support). The PCB is functional ( the demo was succeded).
• Introduced a new PCB flow in the company which enabled to success the PCB design cycle with a competitive cost and a high quality.
• Took the initiative to lead the development and validation of an electronic DSP system. This enabled to reduce the development cost, and respect the planning.
• Set up the Nomadik product development in Rabat which provided the Corporate with a young motivated and skilled team inside a low cost area.
