Jul 2018 - Jan 2020
Lead on a MEMS test chip focused on drift and reflow problems. The rigor and methods of ASIC design as well as my previous modeling work benefited me for this role, which involved:• study of physical theories through analytical equations and simulations to understand which ones could support our observations• development of new simulation methods• analysis of measurement data• definition of new tests• design and simulations of test structures• automation of a wafer prober to improve the quality of our data Show less
