Designed & Tested the ESOM Gigabit Ethernet client port FPGA for the EM6 board.

 

PROJECTS UNDERTAKEN IN C-DOT

Design and implemented the Hardware design development and unit testing process.

Design and development of Hardware design development & unit testing process to be used within the organization. Also involved in the testing & debugging of the STM-1 CPE card.

Designed the STM-1 line card for NGSDH system.

This card Rx & Tx STM-1 electrical/optical signal and does the complete SOH processing of the STM-1 frame.  On the back-plane side, it generates & receives the telecom bus. The processor interface is through the backplane processor bus. This card consists of an Xilinx FPGA, which performs SOH processing of the STM-1 frame, including pointer generation for STM-1.
