Background

About Martin Babl

Problem-solving has been a passion of mine from a young age. Studying Engineering was therefore a logical decision. My Master's in Electronic Engineering gave me a strong focus on trajectory planning for aircraft upset recovery and a solid understanding of the diverse field of control systems. After having spent many hours in Matlab modeling the real world, it was time to learn how these control loops are actually implemented on hardware. My first two years of work at S-PLANE grew my skills in designing a variety of electronic circuits, drawing up schematics, layout out and routing PCBs, and developing the mechanical enclosures for these systems. Most of these systems are used as test equipment to verify DAL-B Avionics Hardware and Firmware which are designed according to DO-254 and DO-178C respectively. I was part of a team that develops the test software to fully verify the designed avionics using a combination of Python, Linux, and C. I wrote a number of hardware test procedures to verify the requirements written for the designed avionics in accordance with DO160 and the verification plan developed using DO-254. I also developed and wrote a number of acceptance test procedures for the produced SRU and LRU hardware.
