Sapphire B. - "Diversification is my decision, knowledge and skills are my armors - Freelance Data Entry Professional, Philippines"

Even from the beginning, Japanese language is always been included within my working experience. I learned the basic from formal language training at Yokohama Kenshu Center on year 2000. Since then I gradually applied this skill not just because of its necessity to my career but also because I gained passion knowing additional language has an advantage in many ways. I continue studying by myself, took lever 4 and level 3 proficiency exam and got very good score.

• Set-up all design initialization, e.g. study, confirms specifications and data preparations.
• Create device layout based on circuits given and specifications using Cadence Allegro.
• Performs design modification for old designs.
• Supervised design progress and continue through connecting the devices starting with the highest priority signal (power, clk lines, bus lines, etch)
• Performs verifications such as DRC, power checks, print-checks, checking of clock lines, and other critical signals as well as wiring simplifications.
• Coordinates the status/progress of the design to clients/circuit designers.
• Create and modify scripts (basic programs) for more design enhancement.
• Preparation of project reports and documentation for design finalization.

• Work closely with circuit engineer and to other designer for the design requests.
• Study a plan work techniques, floor planning and probable problems for early solution and project completion.
• Begin layout designing using Cadence Virtuoso Layout Editor (VLE) either via custom layout or modification stage.
• Create output stream data, VCLEF data for design using external fabrication technology, and XRC data.
• Design project related mostly in CMOS Analog Circuit and sub-micron CMOS LSI (Static Random Access Memory, PLL, Power Amp, etc)
• Observed and study tool performance and make frequent tool program’s modification as required through vi editor and basic C programming.
• Recommend implementations of design changes or modifications to improve the patterns overall characteristics and those with violations.
• Ensure an error free data that conform to the set design rules, requests, circuit specifications and other relevant guidelines by means of Caliber or Dracula (LVS, DRC, Antenna and Compare DRC) verification tools.
• Perform manual check including power design strength and other priorities.
• Create appropriate reports and documentations.
• Create a composer data and extract its equivalent netlist for some circuits with originally flat netlist.
• Perform process-migration for old designs undergoing circuit and process development.
• Resize Memory IPs memory values as specified by the customers.

• Make necessary study, confirmation and preparation for a new design.
• Create a layout similar to PCB on Aluminum base for different electronic devices such as hybrid IC for PDP Televisions, Audio Amplifiers, and very large power Inverters and Motor Driver for refrigerators and washing machines.
• Conduct verifications to ensure a layout that conform to the standard design rules through PWS (DRC and LVS) tool and Valor Enterprise verification tool, all request set by the customers and considering all manufacturing standards.
• Perform print check for other important board matter.
• Supervised group projects and verify other works.
• Provide assessment and recommendations of changes on designs with violations for more pattern improvements.
• Prepare appropriate reports based on the output of the project.
• Document all design related operating procedures and training materials used.
