Hallo, I would have a suggestion about.



The job consist in: developing a microprocessor based system for data acquisition.



I have begun working with fpga about 1 year ago. I have developed some opb peripherals and a microcontroller based on microblaze.



How much could I ask as monthly wage?



Many Thanks Marco


You have not given anywhere near enough info to even hazard a guess.

Where you live, where the jobs is, your education, experience, .... are all HUGE factors in this.

I live in Italy. I've a Laurea degree (equivalent to a Master of Science degree) in Electronic Engineering with specialization in analog and digital integrated circuits.

I have worked for about 1 year to develop a microcontroller based on microblaze. It is a part of a test bench for industrial electric motors, pump and engines.

I have developed the electronic system. A mechanical engineer has developed the mechanical parts.

I have experience in developing opb peripherals, interfacing them to a complete system.

I hope that these informations are enough.

Hey Marco, I dont even know the conversion rates in Italy. But in US with your profile one can command anywhere from 60K-75K depending on location, type of company, your ranking of school etc. This in Dollors so in Euros it would be 50000Euros to 62000 Euro. Ofcourse a lot of other factors come into picture but this is just a ball park figure I am quoting. Good luck with the job.

Marco, do not automatically assume that we all live in the same global village. Salaries differ from country to country, often by a factor of 2 or more. American and Italian salaries are probably quite different. They even differ within the US. Ask some italian engineering friends or organizations. They may have a more realistic opinion. Peter Alfke

I'll do it.

Many Thanks to everyone has replied. Marco

I'm Italian and here salaries are very low, I think that 3000 ? /month will be very hard to get, may be 2000 ? will be very good in Italy....

in bocca al lupo!
