PROFILE

Norbert Niderla

Worked on embedded systems development for the phoenix-rtos-kernel and phoenix-rtos-devices repositories, focusing on hardware integration and configurability. Addressed ZynqMP clock management issues on the aarch64 platform by correcting device clock enumeration and implementing a helper for active status bit shifts, which improved boot-time reliability and runtime stability. Expanded hardware compatibility by adding Micron MT25QU02 flash memory support and refactored UART routing to enable flexible, multi-UART configurations for Zynq devices. Leveraged C programming, ARM architecture expertise, and device driver development skills to deliver targeted solutions that enhanced hardware interfacing, reduced support overhead, and supported future hardware deployments.

October 2025: In phoenix-rtos-kernel (phoenix-rtos/phoenix-rtos-kernel), delivered ZynqMP clock management bug fixes for the aarch64 platform, addressing multiple issues and resulting from three commits: 282973a37d8c43022e8336870bd96c749dc29585; df09a015388f93af263d9bb0fc6453de8b8d1f11; efc60d5d15291c313d5fcbca2f15147b830c3c60. Key work includes correcting platformctl devclock set, correcting device clock enumeration for the LPD USB3 controller, and adding an active-bit shift helper for GEM/USB clocks. These changes improve boot-time reliability, runtime stability, and overall device clock accuracy, enabling more reliable hardware integration and reducing support tickets in embedded deployments.
