Background

About Danny Jacobs

I am a very enthusiastic hardware designer with a hands-on/goal driven approach. The thing I like the most in my role is the challenge of translating the requirements of the customer to a complete design. My main focus over the years was being active as an FPGA developer in which I am still developing myself. Next to designing firmware I like to take the lead in keeping track of the progress of the project and make sure that everybody is aligned in the project. Keeping track of the progress and align this with the stakeholders is something I like picking up as well. Making sure that everybody is doing what they do best and aligning this with the team is what makes a team the strongest in my opinion. My goal is to create the best team for the job. Next to FPGA design I have some experience with board design and developing JTAG-tests. I have extensive experience with Xilinx, Altera and Lattice devices and tooling next to simulating my designs with ModelSim. Applications and tools: Xilinx: ISE, Vivado Altera: Quartus II, Quartus Prime, Platform designer Lattice: Lattice diamond
