YOSHIHIRO NAKAMURAHardware / FPGA Engineer at Yamaha | Digital Mixers, Audio Interfaces, and Real Sound Viewing | System Architecture, Circuit Design, RTL, Embedded FirmwareI am a hardware and FPGA engineer at Yamaha Corporation, working on professional audio products and new entertainment technologies.My experience spans system architecture, digital and analog circuit design, FPGA/RTL design, and embedded firmware development for digital mixers, audio interfaces, and inspection equipment.I have contributed to the development of multiple Yamaha products, including the DM3 Series digital mixer, IXO / UR-MK3 Series audio interface, URX Series audio interface, and MGX Series digital mixer. I also participated in the development of the Micro Prober MR612 bare board tester at Yamaha Fine Technologies.In addition to product development, I have been involved in Yamaha’s Real Sound Viewing Project as a hardware engineer, contributing to technology development, prototype development, and event operation. This work reflects my interest in connecting sound, visual expression, and immersive entertainment through hardware systems.My technical interests include FPGA-based audio systems, real-time signal processing, embedded control, USB audio, hardware/software co-design, and system architecture for professional audio and entertainment applications.Before joining Yamaha, I studied Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Nagoya Institute of Technology. I was also a member of the Robocon Workshop, where I worked on circuit design and participated in NHK Student Robocon, including winning the 2014 competition.I am interested in developing hardware systems that bridge professional audio, embedded technology, and next-generation entertainment experiences.Selected product and project experience:Yamaha- Micro Prober MR612 bare board tester- DM3 Series digital mixer- IXO / UR-MK3 Series audio interface- URX Series audio interface- MGX Series digital mixer- Real Sound Viewing ProjectMain technical areas:- System architecture for professional audio products- FPGA / RTL design for real-time audio systems- Digital and analog circuit design- Embedded firmware development- Hardware bring-up and prototype validation- Hardware/software co-design- New entertainment technology developmentSkills and interests:- FPGA Design- SystemVerilog / Verilog- Circuit Design- Embedded Systems- Professional Audio- USB Audio- Real-time Signal Processing- Audio Interfaces- Digital Mixers- Prototype Development
