[NHTC News - Dec 2011]

While Hochiminh city University of Technology (HCMUT) is the leading technical university in South Vietnam,  Cao Thang Technical College is the leading technical college, where supplies many quality workers for the labor market in South Vietnam.

Upgraded from the Technical school, Cao Thang  Technical college continues trying to make an interesting study environment for the pupils and students.

One among them, the department of electronic and electromechanic  are organizing the Line Follower Robot contest, that is simpler than yearly ABU Robot Contest, but it’s an encouraged effort, be suitable with the 3 years student.

The good beginning in an interesting playground brings up the passion, technical guys!

Let’s hope for the success of the contest!

-Establishing the ROBOTVIET club (2007-2008)

-Technical supports for Robocon teams (from 11/2006)

-Establishing the Forum for students of the Faculty of electrical-electronics, HCMUT DEEFORUM.net. (from 2006) Administrator

-Providing supports for the 2^nd and 3^rd Philips MCU contest in 2005 and 2006

-Building website Science and Youth (from 2005) to share knowledge and learning experience with students and technical people.

-Activities with students:

• BACK TO SCHOOL (2010)
• LED PANEL DESIGN (from 2006, yearly contest)
• Science Research Club of the Faculty of electric-electronics, HCMUT (2010)

ELAN Microelectronics Corporation is an IC designer and provider of 8-bit microcontrollers and PC Peripheral ICs. Situated at the Hsinchu Science Park, the Silicon Valley of Taiwan  (http://www.emc.com.tw)

Starting with AT89C51 by using assembly language to understand how the MCU works, that’s the way all student in Vietnam opens the door of the Embedded world!

As said above, you can understand how popular the Atmel chip is in Vietnam. Asking me? Yes, of course I used to start by the same way.

Some recent years, there’s some change on the position of Atmel in Vietnam, because of the fake products and the long lead-time, however, it is still a most popular chip in Vietnam.

I’m familiar with AT89C51 and AVR ATmega, however, ATTiny is the first one we used in the large number (some ten of thousands).

Known Atmel Singapore via Arrow, this would be the good chance to open the relationship with the most popular chip in Vietnam.

Using NXP’s MCU from the second year when studying at the University of Technology with the introduction from Mr. Kiem Huynh (Lecturer – the well-known coach in the Robot contest).

It would be the very good beginning, I quickly understood 8 bits MCU (LPC922, LPC932, P89V51Rx2), ARM7  MCU (LPC2000) and used them in some application when still being a student.

I connected Philips Semiconductors (Vietnam’s representative office) from 2004 and actually provided many support for them in the MCU contest 2nd and 3rd, with many useful information in my personal website.

I got their Certificated in the MCU contest 2005 and the Award for the contribution to the contest.

The interesting thing is, in the meeting with NXP’s team in June, 2010, I met Mr. Tan – Sales Director, who participated in the Celeration 5 years ago to give me the Award!  He was very supprised, and ofcourse, I was, too. The world is not big enough, huh?

We are now the good partner, not only with the NXP’s Singapore , but also the Vietnam office.

Doing business is just for doing business, but friends are the friends, aren’t you?

Sometime the business is going very well, just after some email from the unknown people, that’s the case I met with WIZnet, the company in Korea.

Meeting with Mr. Kit Wan in Shenzhen, China (2009) and WIZnet team (Mr. Jace Sohn, Mr. Kit Wan,..) in Dongguan, China (2010), there’s many stories to tell.

Keeping the good relation ship, my friends!

UPDATE: Picture taken with WIZnet Hong Kong team at IIC 2012.

I usually talk with the young people about the technology, about the creativity, about how to use the tool to describe the idea, expand freedom of the human intelligence. Talk with them whenever having chance, in university or even in the coffee shop.

One of the most important factor to become the successful person in technology field is the creativity, and young people, with full of the creative power, would be the main force for that developing…

Young man, motherland needs you to become the powerful country…

The business trip 2009 in HK was the first time I go oversea, many feelings for the first time saw the difference: the culture, the lifestyle, the infrastructure, traffic…

There’s many things to tell, about my thought, about my feeling…
