“Neil has had several contracts at CommScope over several years, with the latest contract being for close to two years. From the outset we have found his work to be excellent, hence the numerous repeat contracts. Complex PCBs have had components placed and tracks routed incorporating high power, high speed (gigabit), differential pair and high density elements. Library components have been generated including 3D visualisation support. Designs have been completed with very large numbers of net classes. Neil was instrumental in the upgrade of the Mentor Graphics Software from version 9.5 to VX 1.2 and VX 2.3 including the overall system configuration and template construction.”
Dr David Lambert, Electronic Design Manager
CommScope Connectivity UK Ltd
“I have found Neil to have excellent knowledge and experience of the full PCB Layout design process and a wide understanding of many different design types and styles. He is a pleasure to work with and contributes greatly with good suggestions on improvements for particular designs as well as processes and interacts well with other associated design competences like the mechanical engineers. He is very diligent, efficient and accurate in producing designs; producing layouts on time that work first time.”
Stephen Lambourn, Drawing Office Team Leader,
CommScope Connectivity UK Ltd
“Neil has produced many layout designs during his work with us and these have consistently been delivered to the highest quality in a quick and timely manner. His great attention to detail and his ability to ensure every aspect of a design is satisfied is excellent. His depth of knowledge in the fine details of PCB layout is extensive and resulted in very professional, high performance designs being manufactured. He has also been instrumental in the setup and integration of the DxDesigner/DxDatabook design package into our systems and has demonstrated considerable knowledge and diversity in every aspect of his work. He is a pleasure to work with, flexible, helpful, cheerful and adaptable. I highly recommend his services and I wouldn’t hesitate to choose N D Design for future work.”
Lee Holloway, Hardware Design Engineer,
Broadband Network Solutions, TE Connectivity
“N D Design helped with the introduction and setup of Mentor GraphicsDxDesigner/DxDatabook into our design process for a large project and worked closely with a number of our engineers to make the project a great success. The project involved system integration with in house databases as well as the generation of a large number of hierarchical schematics and PCB designs. We won a major supplier award for this project and N D Design made a significant contribution to this success.”
Damien Walker, Senior Component Engineer, Meggitt Aircraft Braking Systems.
“N D Design has carried out several projects for Fernau Avionics to a very high standard. Excellent knowledge of electronics and RF circuit layout was shown. This helped the Design Engineers considerably when discussing layout issues either in person or by telephone. The resulting fabricated pcb’s have been produced to the Design Engineers satisfaction and requirements.”
Grant Cargill, Design Engineer, Fernau Avionics Ltd.
“Neil has performed both efficiently and effectively throughout his time at TE Connectivity. Whilst working as a valued member of the team, his engagement has been second to none, both in team assignments or equally well when tasked with individual assignments. His work effort is both fast and efficient. Neil will always go the extra mile to get the job done! I would always recommend Neil and N D Design to meet any requirements, however large or small.”
Phil Smith, Hardware Systems Architect, Broadband Network Solutions, TE Connectivity
“We used N D Design to assemble PCBs and complete units for one of our products and we are very happy with the service and quality of the build. We would have no hesitation in using N D Design in the future.”
Tim Rimmer, Senior Development Engineer, Murata Power Soutions
“I have known Neil Stephenson of ND Design for over 20 years from the early days of Computer Aided Design. Neil has a wealth of experience and knowledge of PCB design, including installation and setting up Mentor Graphics DxDesigner / PADS PCB design flow. Neil also has experience of high density designs – 16 layer PCB’s with microvias, differential pairs and controlled impedance. Neil offers a very professional service which is flexible and accommodating, in addition his standard of work is excellent with a high degree of accuracy. I have no hesitation in recommending N D Design and their services to other clients.”
Martin Davies, Director, Freegrange Limited
“I have had the advantage of his services for ten years now ranging over many products. In all that time I have found that:-
He is easy to work with – good working relationship;
Produces excellent quality work;
I do not need to check his work;
Is knowledgeable and experienced about the factors I would rather not get involved in: track widths, spacing, sudoku points, etc;
Circuits are laid out in a logical manner – like an engineer would do;
Adaptable, cheerful, sober.”
