• Aboundlogic - Bièvres (Paris area) Analog and mixed signal IC design engineer
  Jan 2009 - Jan 2010

  Responsibilities include: specifications review, architecture research, design, layout, pre and post-layout simulation as well as lab measurements. Design of the next generation IO comparator supporting a wide range of wired communication standards. The silicon proven performances achieved were: low power (200µW), rail-to-rail operation (wide swing and common mode range), high speed (400ps response time), low distortion @ maximum frequency (output duty cycle error less than 4%).
  Technology: tsmc 45nm
