Ketan V.

FPGA/IP/RTL, Embedded Systems & PCB Designer | 22+ Years of Experience

I am an Electronics Engineer with a Passion for Precision. As an Electronics Engineer, I bring strong analytical skills to the table, allowing me to break down complex problems and develop concise and high-quality solutions. I’ve worked extensively with various digital signaling protocols such as I2C, SPI, UART, Ethernet, USB, and MIPI. I've worked on FPGAs across brands—Altera/Intel, Actel/Microsemi/Microchip, Xilinx/AMD, Lattice, and Gowin—I’ve designed peripheral IP controllers and Systems-on-Chip (SoCs). My experience extends to Camera and Display/LCD integration within FPGA-based systems. I’m well-versed in microprocessor/microcontroller internals and have developed firmware using C. In last few years, I also gained experience in 2/4 layer PCB developments and successfully rolled out 50+ boards for customers. [Experience and Beyond] Since 2002, I’ve been part of the electronics design industry. As a full-time freelancer since 2016, I’ve gained insights from various fields and industry levels. Whether it’s a compact project or a grand-scale endeavor, I thrive both independently and collaboratively.
