Subject: [oc] any help needed?
Hi, I'm a digital ASIC designer in the UK with a few spare cycles and was wondering if anyone needed any help with an ongoing or new project (I apologise if the cores forum is not quite the right one for this, if not can you point me in the right direction). I am currently working for a company doing some way-out-there mostly back-end stuff, so would kind of like to maintain/enhance my front-end design skills.
I've checked out the list of projects (I've often considered some of them for commercial designs over the past few years), but most seem to be at a pretty advanced or complete stage so I'm not sure I can contribute much there. I have a few ideas for a processor project of my own, but I'm not going to be at a point to really start developing it for a few months yet - more on this later :-)
Here's a quick 'resume' so you can determine if I'm any use to you!
Digital ASIC Design Engineer (Chartered Engineer) Most of my experience in VHDL, with a little Verilog (but could do with some practice on the verilog side!) Experienced with all sorts of digital ASIC/FPGA design tools (ModelSim, Cadence, Synopsys, Xilinx, etc). Lead designer (digital) for several commercial designs, including a new CPU design amongst others. Most of the recent stuff I've worked on has been v. low power/cost designs I have access to a range of commercial design tools (within reason of not interfering with my companys business!) Have studied and have a lot of interest in high performance and 'different' processor/DSP architectures. Not really a softy, but have a bit of previous there, so can hack out some assembler code, perl or C/C++ if pushed! Chief pedant when it comes to design strategy/docs! :-)
If I can be of any assistance, let me know.
Stuart.
