Design

I have designed from HDL design and verification to circuit board design. The best example of this is the bakTrack circuit board, a small lightweight activity tracker that can latch onto a backpack or bike to record and analyze the data.

Programming

Embedded micro-processor programing was also a big part of bakTrack (among several other projects).

Debugging

Of course, with programming on embedded micro-processors, you also have debugiing these projects. In my experience, Very little time is actually used writing code where as most is spent debugging, testing, and validating.

Silicon Wafers

One of the more fun experiences was crafting actual devices on silicon wafers. From logical and general circuit components to photovoltaic devices, the process of adding photoresist, using photolithography, and creating a layer that turns the silicon into a semi-conductor brought joy.
