Hello, my name is Robert Geoffrey Wood. I'm an electronics engineer and design all nature of products.  Below is a resume of my professional capabilities.  Modern design techniques allow for a considerable flexibility in work and employment conditions and I am always open to ideas. Should  you be interested, you can e-mail me. If you need electronic product design, I'm your man.

 
 


The above photo is of me on a diving trip off Kingston, Ontario. Behind me is a training schooner based in Kingston and behind that is old Fort Henry, dating back from the war of 1812.

At my present employer, SpaceBridge Semiconductor Corporation , I have developed a couple of deep sub-micron designs; devices for satellite modems and am now developing board and system level products based upon these chips.
