Rande Enderby serves as a Senior Principal II RF/Microwave Design Engineer at BAE Systems, where he leverages his extensive expertise in RF and microwave mixed-signal circuit design and layout to drive innovative solutions in advanced aerospace and defense applications. With a strong foundation in analog design, Rande specializes in the development of RF active and passive circuits, including critical components such as equalizers, filters, limiters, and low-noise amplifiers (LNAs). His proficiency with simulation software tools like ADS, HFSS, and Microwave Office allows him to optimize designs for performance metrics that are crucial in high-frequency applications ranging from 2GHz to 40GHz.
One of Rande's notable achievements includes his role as the Lead Design Engineer for a groundbreaking 6U Tuner, which operates within a quad-channel architecture specifically designed for space applications. This project, recognized by patent #11,165,457 awarded on November 2, 2021, required Rande to design multiple multi-chip modules (MCM) that not only met stringent low noise figure (NF) and DC power specifications but also ensured high intercept points and spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR). His ability to integrate complex RF systems while maintaining rigorous performance standards exemplifies his commitment to excellence in the field.
Rande's skill set extends beyond design; he is adept in testing and debugging hardware, ensuring that each component functions seamlessly within the overall architecture. His deep understanding of semiconductors and electronics, combined with his experience in hardware architecture, positions him as a key contributor to BAE Systems' mission of delivering cutting-edge technology solutions that meet the evolving demands of the aerospace and defense sectors.
