Responsibilities
 Block level circuit design and architectural implementation for USB2, PCI, BC1.2, OTG2.0, USB3.0,MIPI-
DPHY, DISPLAYPORT.
 System level signal integrity analysis. The goal was to check the feasibility of LINK to PHY interface
specification which was under development at that time.
 Top level layout routing planning and checking.
 Front-end design and layout supervision of the analog parts of USB2.0 including the TX/RX, squelch
detector, single ended comparator, voltage regulators in technologies spanning from 55nm to 28nm.
 Responsible for after fabrication issues debug of USB 2.0 product in 55nm and below. Modeling of silicon
failure, design change proposal, management a small team (2 people) to fix the design.
 Writing external and internal documents for new circuit design and architectures

2.  Performing analog and mixed-signal circuit analysis by using hand calculation and computer simulation with
tools, such as HSPICE, FineSim, XA, NanoSim.
 Responsible for scheduling design tasks and goals. Performing the tasks from customer special requirements,
generating new data sheets, design notes and assigning tasks to designers.
 Review problems and formulate rearrangement as a team lead.
RAO MARS JSC
Yerevan, Armenia
Senior Electronics Design Engineer 02/2002 – 10/2008
Responsibilities
 Macro analog and digital design, architectural implementation for digital controlled power supplies, power
AC-AC converters (3PhX380V-50Hz to 3PhX128V-400Hz), PWL controllers, PIC processors.
 Layout routing, planning, executing for up to 4 layers PCB.
 Writing external and internal documents for new circuit design and architectures.
 Perform analog and mixed-signal circuit analysis by using hand calculation, verification and debugging with
digital analyzer and multi-channel oscilloscope on PCB.
 Debugging and analyzing.
Technical cooperation in this role
Powervamp Ltd (Weston-super-Mare, United Kingdom) 10/2006-12/2007
 Investigated problems of aviation ground supplies. The problem was related to high output load
driving capability. In this condition the power supplies were malfunctioning. As a result of
investigation schematic design was improved and hit dissipation construction was optimized.
 Analyzed AC-AC power converter schematic and construction. As a result recommendations to
optimize the performance and case construction (to decrease the weight, geometric sizes and
increase mobility) were given.
