Henrique Uemura Okada

I have been working with Toni since 2012. Throughout these years, he consolidated his skills in analog IC design, analog circuit modeling, analog and mixed signal simulation, printed circuit board layout and mounting, and lab characterization of ICs. He had a major participation in the analog design of the passive UHF RFID tag of the major ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) operator 'Sem Parar' in Brazil, which has sold millions of units. Toni is a person who: is very committed to his work, is proactive while keeping an eye on his priorities, can easily test new ideas in hands-on experiments.

Toni is hard working and a very serious professional. I had the pleasure of working with him for two years in the Von Braun Labs semiconductors unit, collaborating on ultra-low-power RFID ASIC projects. He's dependable, sociable and his ASIC Analog IC Design skills are invaluable to the team. Toni would certainly be an important asset to any team.
