James H.

I am a senior level electronic engineer with over 10 years experience in the design of circuitry incorporating various microprocessors / DSPs, and development of embedded C / C++ firmware. As a full-time freelancer, I specialize in creating intelligent control electronics through the use of wired and wireless sensors. I have a Master of Science degree in Electrical Engineering with a digital signal processing concentration. I can assist clients in any of the following areas: - Digital and analog electronic circuit schematic design, PCB design, test, debug, and integration - Electronic prototyping and preparation for product commercialization - Embedded processor firmware design (drivers, application, and DSP algorithms), development, debug, and integration - Initial project framework (specification writing, structuring, and system design). Projects I regularly help clients with: - Hand held and remote meters - OBD vehicle electronics - Wired and wireless sensors - High performance audio capture / processing / reproduction and audio CODEC - Medical wearable devices - Low power battery driven electronics - IoT device to server electronics and firmware (MQTT, HTTP / HTTPS / JSON protocols) - Device to device electronics and firmware (BLE, ISM, WiFi) - BLDC and BDC motor control Summary of processors & tools I use: - Processors: ST Micro STM32F0 / STM32F1 /STM32F3 / STM32F4 / STM32F7, Analog Devices BlackFin BF706 DSP, SHARC 210xx, 2156x, and 214xx DSP - Embedded IDE tools: IAR EWARM, Analog Devices CrossCore Embedded Studio - Embedded IP libraries: Segger emWin GUI, Segger emFile FAT file system, SQLite, OBD Experts vehicle OBD-II, Micrium uC/OS-II RTOS, FreeRTOS, MicroDigital smxFS FAT file system, Closed Loop Design (CLD) USB Audio, Adaptive Digital Noise Reduction - Interface: SPI, I2C, I2S, CANbus, UART, A/D, D/A, PWM, SDRAM, RGB TFT LCD, SAI - Wireless: SimCom SIM7500 LTE, uBlox MAX-M8 GNSS, uBlox NINA-B41 BlueTooth 5.1, Sierra Wireless BC127 Bluetooth, Telit HE910 3G, Linx Technologies GNSS / GPS, Roving Networks RN171 WiFi, Atmel ATWINC1500 WiFi, TI CC1101 sub-1GHz ISM band, MicroChip RN4020 Bluetooth Smart / Low Energy (BLE) - Schematic capture: OrCAD - Drawing tools: AutoCAD LT - Analog simulation tools: CircuitLab - Version control: SubVersion and GIT Project keywords: BLDC and BDC motor control medical devices wearable devices hand held meters OBD electronics brushless brushed DC motors audio CODEC Qi battery charger wireless charging Li-Ion Li-Po battery management BMS STM32F030 STM32F072 STM32F101 STM32F103 STM32F427 STM32F429 STM32F756 SHARC ADSP-21487 SHARC ADSP-21569 CAN bus STM32 ARM Cortex Black Fin Nordic nRF5340 analog electronics digital electronics sensor microcontroller firmware design PCB design rapid prototype firmware development circuit board electronic engineer
