Experience: I have more than 30 years experience in low and
high voltage power supply design at power levels from tens of milliwatts
to hundreds of kilowatts. High voltage applications include TWT (Radar Jammer
and Spacecraft Communications Transponder), Magnetron (Radar Jammer), CRT
(color television) and Image Intensifier (Night Vision) applications. Low
voltage applications range from low power multi-output housekeeping functions
to multi-kilowatt DC-DC converters for pulse load projects. Off-line AC-DC
converters were developed for a number of applications. Projects have included
commercial, military and space applications. I have many years of magnetics
design experience at frequencies ranging from power line up to 500kHz.
I am listed in the National IEEE Consultant's Directory:

Tool Expertise: I have many years of Spice modeling/simulation
experience for time domain and frequency domain (loop stability using State
Space Averaging) simulation of power electronics equipment. I also use MathCad
to analyze circuits during initial paper designs and Worst Case Analysis.
I am currently developing tools to mechanize substantial portions of the
design process. This will include magnetics optimization, worst case analysis,
parts stress analysis, test limit computation (subassembly and final assembly)
and a number of other areas. It involves linking a Microsoft Access component
info database to analysis and simulation tools and automatically performing
a sequence of analyses/simulations under a predefined set of operating modes
and environmental conditions.
Microsoft Office (including Microsoft Project) is used to prepare required
project documentation. Drafting support is available for PC Board layout
and preparation of complete drawing packages.
