Dear Sir/Madam:


       The opportunity to join an on-the-go company in the
rapidly growing semiconductor industry intrigues me.  In
the hope that an association with your firm will be
mutually beneficial, I enclose my resume.

       Since June 1992, I am working as a circuit designer
for Naval Command, Control and Ocean Surveillance Center
(NRaD), San Diego.  Work at NRaD involves design of 
CMOS analog/digital integrated circuits.  It involves
SPICE level simulations, layout (Magic, Mentor Graphics),
and IC testing on probe station (HP 4145).  Prior to
this, for two years, I have been a research assistant to
various departments at Oklahoma State University.  In
those positions, I have worked on design of CMOS
digital/analog integrated circuits.  My thesis involves
IC design, simulation, fabrication, and testing.  My
college background has included a variety of
communication, signal processing, and digital/analog
CMOS/BiCMOS IC design courses.

       I have a reputation as a organized, self reliant
person who functions well without supervision.  I would
expect you to utilize me to the limit of my abilities.

       I have enclosed my resume for your perusal.  I look
forward to discussing my potential contributions to your
company.  I can be reached either at (619) 222-2371 or at
(619) 553-2680.


                                          Sincerely,



                                          Sanjay B. Patil
