About Scott McLachlan

10 years professional experience in real time embedded software development• Experience using the languages: Java, Awk, Visual Basic, MATLAB, C, C++, C#, Assembly, UML, ADA, Delphi• Experience using the following test equipment: • Analogue/Digital Oscilloscopes • Agilent Power Meter • RF Signal Generators • Agilent Signal Source Analyser • Spirent GPS Simulators • Timer/Counters • Thermal Chamber • Multimeters • BDIPROJECT EXPERIENCEWESTECTII• Development of an Automatic Train Protection (ATP) system for the monitoring of train behaviour. Two phase delivery of project covering migration and enhancement.TM6 GPS Timing Module Receiver • Development of a series of micro-modules to provide synchronisation (matching of time) in the form of a one pulse per second (1PPS) output signal aligned to GPS time and syntonisation (matching of frequency) in the form of disciplined output frequencies of 19.2 MHz, 26 MHz and 30.72 MHz. TM2 GPS Timing Module Receiver • Development of a OEM module to provide synchronisation (matching of time) in the form of an even second pulse aligned to GPS time and syntonisation (matching of frequency) in the form of a disciplined 30.72 MHz output. The product evolved into a micro-module, called the TM2-02, in order to reduce manufacturing costs. It is for use in cellular wireless base stations called femtocells. GPS Receiver MG6 Firmware • Development of Embedded Software to run on a MMT 1010 (a 10mm by 10mm GPS micro module developed by Micro Modular Technologies) for use in vehicle satellite navigation systems.
