About Steve
Steve Geers offers consulting services through TechDev LLC in the areas of Zigbee, embedded software, RF design and emissions testing.
At TechDev, Steve has developed a Zigbee-based sensor network for an industrial client. The system includes sensors, a coordinator and GUI-based PC software to calibrate the sensors. Steve has guided customers through system development and FCC approval processes. He has also provided training on RF test equipment as well as EMC lab setup and measurement techniques.
While at Salus North America (formerly Cincinnati Technologies), Steve wrote the software for multiple Zigbee smart plugs, oversaw the Zigbee certification of numerous Zigbee devices and developed automated test systems for radiated sensitivity and dropout testing. He worked with China-based design teams to resolve software issues on a variety of products.
As a Cincinnati Microwave employee, Steve was a key member of the first commercial spread spectrum cordless phone developed by the company. He set up and ran an FCC authorized test site and worked with the FCC office of Engineering Technology to define the exact measurement procedures. He was a core RF design engineer on the phone. Some of his other contributions include automated engineering test systems to speed up RF hardware development.
For several companies, Steve developed RF circuitry for signal intelligence receivers. His contributions include high performance synthesizers as well as stripline and microstrip filters.
