Work
My CV is available in
PDF and
word format.
I
am an experienced electronics engineer who has worked a number of
complex digital and mixed signal boards for use at CERN www.cern.ch
and the Rutherford
Appleton Laboratory. These projects have included large data
processing systems, where I designed part of the analogue front end
and the card power distribution such as the CMS FED
and a further
paper here.
There
have been other smaller but still important cards such as HOTWAXS
and HOTSAXS
detector systems for
Diamond, Daresbury Laboratory and ISIS. I have also designed
the extension to the timing system on a large physics experiment,
ISIS target station 2
I have also worked
previously at DERA Malvern on radio systems.
I
have used a number of different FPGA and CPLD devices from
both Xilinx
and Altera.
The HOTWAXS cards were built round a Spartan
2E and with
the front end pulse discriminator using ALTERA MAX
7000 series.
I have also used a
Virtex 4 .
I have used Mentor Graphics HDL
Designer, simulated using Modelsim,
and PSPICE
, and also used Quartus
Precision
Synthsis and ISE
Education and energy
I
have been interested in energy supply and energy conservation for a
long time. I have recently completed an Msc in Electronics Technology
for Sustainable Energy. My dissertation was on electricity meter
fraud with relation to the Feed In Tarriff and how it might be
detected in meter. The summary of my dissertation can be read here,
and the course prospectus can be found here.
Hobbies
I
like photography and
have lots of interesting pictures. I prefer B&W to colour and
like the urban landscape, examples of my work can be seen here
and also on my
flickr page.
