The Analog Competence Center (ACC) is part of the Chief Technology Office and provides analog solutions across NXP. We drive innovation and encourage alignment and collaboration. For an innovation project, we are looking for a BSc student to develop a high-speed optical communication link demonstrator using microLED technology. MicroLEDs are relatively novel devices developed for display applications that have promising properties for communication as well. You will build an optical communication experimental setup based around microLEDs and a variety of off-the-shelf components (like optical detectors).

Your Responsibilities

Build a microLED based optical communication setup

Build the supporting hardware/software to control the setup (PC/Matlab, FPGA)

Implement a variety of modulation schemes, ranging from IM/DD to OFDM

Run experiments and report results

What’s In It For You

A great opportunity to develop your skills (technical, soft skills, communication, etc.)

Gaining experience in a multinational and diverse environment
