I am an Analog IC Layout Engineer with hands-on experience in advanced CMOS technologies and real production environments. I currently work in the semiconductor industry, focusing on analog and mixed-signal layout, where layout quality directly impacts circuit performance, matching, reliability, and yield.

Throughout my own learning journey, I found it surprisingly difficult to find resources that teach analog layout from a truly beginner-friendly perspective. Most materials either assume prior experience or jump too quickly into advanced topics without building a solid foundation. This gap strongly shaped the way I approach teaching today.

Over the years, I have accumulated practical industry knowledge through real layouts, silicon results, and production constraints. In my courses, I intentionally translate everything I have learned into beginner-level explanations, without sacrificing correctness or industry relevance. The goal is to help learners understand why things are done, not just how.

My background combines analog layout, device physics, and manufacturing awareness. I have worked on precision analog blocks such as differential pairs and current mirrors, and my experience with ESD-related design and measurements has given me a strong understanding of how real silicon behaves beyond simulations.

I believe layout is not just about passing DRC and LVS — it is about translating schematics into reliable silicon. My teaching style is structured, practical, and industry-oriented, designed to help beginners build confidence and progress toward real-world analog layout work.
