… and that’s a wrap for traditional employment. Earlier work presented on “Details” page

I’m primarily an analog and mixed-signal development engineer with a specialty in sensor interface networks – or “phenomena-to-bits” – especially for what may be loosely classified as “geophysical” projects … which includes “climate change”. And mineral exploration.

I have no hesitation in being a proud member of the climate science “3% Club”.

My specialty: “A method of developing pre-quantization signal processing networks to assure maximum fidelity of the digital representation.“
i.e., “What happens between the transducer and ADC”

I tend to write white papers more than briefings. Something more than a note, yet less than a book; call them short white papers or long articles. A short note may be 3 pages long.

Maybe a bit of sharing some tips and techniques I’ve found interesting and sometimes useful.
