Hardware design engineer - Getting started

Dear Reader,

I took real b**l s**t from my boss here for the first design i had made in my new company. I am very unhappy. I want to start it all over again. all my understandings, learning, Design presentation, reasoning, decision everything..

Just a little background of my career experience.. have gone through all the basic interfaces around a 32 bit processor. Had read so many whitepapers and guidelines and was feeling confident about the knowledge. I thought I am smart enough to design new things. But today's meeting settled that.


So, my mission is to learn all the things(!!) related to hardware design which makes an engineer Mr Perfect.. Would like to put all my learning in a blog so that it might help other person one-day. Thinking to present my learning in a very practical way how I should have done it starting from requirements gathering to deploying the design to the most best known reviewer. Wish me luck..
