This website provides you helpful information about electronic
circuits, mainly about Microchip PIC 8 Bit RISC
microcontrollers and corresponding assembler programming
techniques. Several assembler source code listings are
available for non-commercial use. There are also software tools
for using your PC for measuring or regulating electronic
applications. Among the presented microcontroller and FPGA projects
on this site are a digital altimeter with direct wireless data
transmission for my radio controlled airplanes, and a FPGA project
involving computation and visualization of fractal sets.
In early 2001, I started working at the AMD Dresden Design
Center, Dresden, Germany, on RTL-based block- and system-level
verification and performance analysis of
HyperTransport™ chipsets for AMD's x86-64 Opteron
CPUs.
After having been abroad for almost three years, I returned to
Switzerland in late 2003 to pursue a Ph.D. study in the field of
fourth-generation multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)
wireless communication at the Integrated Systems Laboratory of
the ETH Zurich in Zurich, Switzerland. Having been working for
six years as a research and teaching assistant on a four-stream
MIMO prototyping system with embedded real-time signal
processing, I passed my Ph.D. exam in late 2009. Today, I work
as R&D and technology consultant for government
organizations as well as small to multi-national industrial
companies, for instance in the medical technology sector...
