Founder/CEO

Mitch has decades of experience in circuit design and has a solid track record in both design and Project/Program Management.

He started his career at IBM in 1979 doing device level layout and circuit design on state-of-the-art Bipolar SRAM’s. Here he also worked on testing Auto Place and Route (APR) tools and developing new test methodologies. In 1995 he joined Intel, Arizona and worked on high-speed serial I/O including PCI-Express, USB 2.0, CSI, and LVDS. He also managed design groups on various projects and developed circuits from concept to silicon. He has worked in every phase of IC design from process selection and chip definition to final test and Product engineering.

He holds two patents, on USB 2.0 and was largely responsible for its selection for the High Speed Serial I/O of choice vs. 1394 (firewire).

(Senior Analog Circuit Design Associate)

Steve is an Analog Electronics Integrated Circuit Designer with highly evolved, hence sought after, intuition and knowledge of design, with a wide range of skills and expertise in all phases of circuit design.

Spending much of his career as a contractor and independent business owner, he has seen and tackled many challenges in the field. His experience includes designing and developing ultra-low power circuits (a specialty), precision voltage references, voltage and current regulators (including LDOs), amplifiers, crystal oscillators (including a groundbreaking 32KHz), PLLs, frequency synthesizers, and SERDES, in a wide range of integrated circuit technologies. He also has expertise in Digital to Analog and Analog to Digital conversion (DAC and ADC), and temperature sensors. Steve is also fully versed in Mixed-Signal design and use of the tools of the trade.

Another area of expertise is in porting IC chips from one technology to another. Often analog circuits require careful adjustment to make them work in a new or different technology.

From writing and marketing his own Circuit simulator to designing unique solutions for today’s challenges and newest process nodes, Steve is a true Renaissance Man of the Integrated design world.

Despite his career as a contractor Steve has also managed to be the holder of several patents as well.

(Logic Design, Pre/Post Validation Engineer Associate)

We are very lucky to have Ron on our team! His wide ranging experience not only in design but in prototyping is a tremendous asset.He has experience not only in pre silicon product and process simulation, but post silicon problem solving and root cause evaluation, is invaluable. He has solved intense manufacturing issues both as team member as well as team leader, stabilizing yield issues greater than 50 DPM significantly reducing costs.

The list of his contributions to industry standard products is long and we are proud to have him on the team!
