My name is Val DiEuliis. I am an electrical engineer with 30
years of experience in the electronics industry. As an independent
consultant since 1984, I have served a diverse clientele having
equally diverse needs. I have consulted with large corporations,
small companies, startup companies, and individual entrepreneurs. I
have managed projects, studied product and system feasibility,
assessed technology, advised executive management, mentored young
engineers, and
served as an expert witness in patent litigation. I have
developed electronic products, systems, and devices for industrial,
consumer, commercial, military, and medical applications. I have
performed research and development in corporate and academic
laboratories, and worked with testing, sustaining engineering, and
manufacturing organizations. I have also taught graduate and
undergraduate courses in electronics, computer networks, and control
theory.
I have developed analog circuits, digital circuits, and
electronic microcontroller-based devices for a variety of
applications, including light detection, sensing industrial valve
position using magneto-resistive devices, diagnosing under-the-hood
automotive sensors, detecting phosphorescence, measuring the height
of river water, charging batteries for an orthopedic tool, and
testing furnace igniters. I've designed servo systems, data
detectors, signal processors, and test systems for magnetic disk and
CD, DVD, Magneto-Optical (MO), and WORM optical disc technologies,
and I've designed computer peripheral devices for PC, EISA, VME, and
proprietary data busses. The table below highlights many of the
skills and areas of expertise that I've applied to these projects.

Finally, my consulting practice comprises not only
me, but also the hardware, software, mechanical, and optical
engineers and scientists I subcontract. It includes the printed
circuit board designers, PCB assembly houses, technicians, technical
writers, machinists, vendors, manufacturers, and distributors who
contribute their special skills to my successfully completed
projects.
