Robert Keim A graduate from the University of California of San Diego with a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering Technical Director for All About Circuits Extensive experience in a wide variety of fields, including Analog design Firmware development Digital signal processing Power management Motor control Digital camera design Low-noise PCB layout System integration Designing for harsh environments Neural networks Software-defined radios Role of open source information in the EE community What does Open Source mean to you? Robert: Knowledge, that originates from labor and is freely available. True acquisition of knowledge. Parker: A tool for learning - seeing how things were made and creating your own version Stephen: More emphasis on knowledge and understanding vs the execution Do you think that open source projects can be a long term financial success, or are they a social movement and more about bringing knowledge and functionality to the community? Version control for PCBs and how that workflow may differ from software version control How you would collaborate with multiple Electrical Engineers on a single PCB (schematic and layout)? What's one of your favorite articles that you wrote for All About Circuits and why? The Clean Power Series - decoupling capacitors Favorite Microcontroller/Development Board/Toolchain Where do you see EDA tools in 5 years? Least favorite EDA tool?
