Rf Micro Devices Work Values

Daily Duties at Rf Micro Devices:

Designed a "Soft" GPS receiver development system. Utilized an existing MicroDevices GPS RF receiver chip and Signal processor along with a Spartan 5 FPGA to give GPS customers the opportunity to integrate signal processing forward into the RF chip. Designed the RF front-end utilizing a circularly polarized patch antenna, RF Switches, LNAs and high impedance matching network to the RF Micro RF chip. Designed a SPI data interface between the RF chip and the signal processor chip. Utilized a Cypress 8051 with USB port and 256 byte buffer to interface with a PC host via a USB port. Interfaced the 8051 with a Spartan FPGA to add signal processing to the RF MicroDevices RF chip via the SPI bus. Provided voltage regulators for power conditioning for each of the devices.

What they like about Rf Micro Devices:

Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
