In Software, the most stressful part is competition from your peers. Out managers tend to push production by favoring the most productive engineer. That creates a lot of stress and headaches when multiple people work on the same software and you end up fixing bugs that others put into your software.

Instead of CS, I chose to minor in mathematics and CS, and major in CpE, loved it ever since, instead of creating a simulation software for example running off of a clock or counter, I can instead design the logic board and I literally coded all my gates in Xlinux, and imported the circuit onto an Fpga board. Its exactly the description, over software design, hardware takes alot more time and mathematics(Bad Diff eq... waveform analysis/ Fourier...)comparatively when it even comes to projects and etc...

But that's what they said about software engineering years ago, "We hope that someday it will be more like hardware engineering." What they were talking about is standardized components. At the time software was ruled by the "not invented here syndrome" (only trust your own code). Plus there wasn't as much chip design as there is now, so most engineers were using off-the-shelf components and doing board/system design--they weren't _creating_ components. Today it seems there is more trust in software frameworks and more reliance on custom chips, and so software and hardware have moved closer together. But chip design isn't the be-all end-all of hardware design. Tons of products use only off-the-shelf components. If you do need a custom chip there are FPGAs and semi-custom silicon, which radically cut development time and cost for a custom chip (but you pay for it in component cost). With RAM based FPGAs some engineers treat it as agile and spin a rev every couple of weeks. Chip design tools are incredibly advanced and way, way beyond anything I've seen for software development. Each tool in the stack typically costs tens of thousands of dollars, and so having $100,000 of tools (programs) on your desktop (often Unix) is par for the course. However when you look at the cost of an engineer, $100,000 is nothing. Full custom silicon is the ultimate in "waterfall" engineering. Create the spec and _verify_ that it is _perfect._ Architect the chip, design the logic, and _verify_ that it matches the spec. Do the layout (tapeout) and verify it matches the logic--at this point we're able to start getting into automated verification tools, and for FPGAs, layout itself is semi-automated. Create the test vectors to verify the silicon matches the design--which can be about as close to fully automated as possible using modern tools. Finally get your prototype chips, put them in your prototype product, and see if the spec was actually what you needed in the first place. Of course spec verification is 100% human brain power. And so is verification of the logic design. Maybe if you had a formalized specification language then you could get some automated help with verification that the design matches the spec. But then you move even more pain to spec creation. The two steps of spec and design verification takes about 70% of an engineer's time. Note that matching the design to the spec often uses code coverage tools to see how close you are. Getting above 90% is damn near impossible. I'm 66 and used to do chips for the storage industry--disk drives and enterprise disk controllers. Having an intimate understanding of what the chip _needs to do_ helps massively with spec creation. Although I've never had an outright failure of the first spin on a chip, we always budgeted for a second spin. Because at some point _reality_ is cheaper and faster than _simulations._ My chips were never anywhere near as complex as what is possible today. I'm getting into full-stack development these days.

Back in the early 80's, when I was getting my E.E. degree, I knew several people that dropped out of the E.E. program with D's and F's only to change to software and get A's and B's. Yes, it is hard to be an E.E. in the design world, unless you become a "paper" E.E. I have known those as well. One thing that is important about E.E. as opposed to software, is that the E.E. requires a lab and equipment. That usually requires "on site" employment. Not always, as in the case of PCB design and strictly FPGA design, but if you are responsible for making a piece of electronics hardware work, it will require debugging. That requires a lab of sorts.

I worked as an ASIC designer for 17 years at Scientific Atlanta, Cisco and ST Micro. When ST Micro closed our group (and others in North America) I found that a lot of that work is now done in Asia so not much call for remote workers in USA. To stay in ASIC design I would have to move to western US. Fortunately I do physical layer communications, DSP for RF, and there is a lot of call for that in FPGA design. Nowadays its called software designed radio although I don't call it that -> still RTL to me. Lots of smaller companies are around that want that skill set and so I use the same tools and methods to do my job. I will say that the ASIC group I worked with were extremely talented and I enjoyed it very much. Even with the schedule pressure and the need for "perfect" code. So is ASIC design hardware design? Yes that it is implemented in physical hardware. Is the same code hardware design if implemented in an FPGA? :)

But it's comparable to chip design because it's an electrical product that ends up being mass-produced on an assembly line. A competitive low voltage power transformer is probably less complex to design than a competitive chip, because one single electrical engineer can design it. I have designed about 500-1000 small transformers that were produced on the assembly line. For the first 8 months my calculations and construction plans were always reviewed by a senior engineer... However, they could not extend the fixed-term contract because a major customer stopped ordering and the company announced 6 months short-time work for the second time.

All I'm hearing is "it's hard" like I've been doing this sort of stuff since middle school so I'm just happy there's not much else to it :)

With all engineering: it is challenging as YOU are RESPONSIBLE. There are not many other people around that have the required skills to assist you with your tasks and answer questions. Those that are around in your team are BUSY. After all engineers are typically an expensive resource. And don't think your manager can/will support you. She/he/div doesn't know how to and they hired YOU to get stuff done. You have to solve challenging technical problems. Both HW and SW are unforgiving. They do as you design them. If stuff fails you will not be able to blame the compiler or the chip. YOU made the mistake and will be held responsible. There is no layer of human intelligence that might prevent you wrongdoing to get bad (but there is also no human stupidity in your way to do great stuff!) Depending on the discipline people might get hurt or killed due to you failures and mistakes! You have to oblige to rules and procedures that you first have to learn that might appear irrational to you. You DO get in contact with politics. Frequently you have to deal with people that are 2-3 times below your skill level - but are still in power of the game (HR, Finance, Project managers, ...). So if you don't want to be held accountable - engineering is not for you.

How can i connect with you in linkedin.

All valid points, but you missed two crucial points. Hardware jobs are much more limited in number than software jobs, because as an industry, software is much bigger than hardware. You only have a handful of companies where you can look for h/w opportunities. Secondly, I believe salary in software engineering is a bit higher on average compared to h/w (even more so for machine learning and all the new fancy stuff). So although h/w engineering is probably more difficult and stressful compared to s/w, you get paid less to do it. (I'm a hardware engineer with about 15 years of experience.)

JJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA, that was a very funny video, being android developer I thought I knew about stress but that really sounds even harder jajajajajajajaja Is Austria having a chance!? with TSMC and Samsung and China...

I am 41 yrs old from india and presently working as electronic technician/ product associate. I am interested in electrical engineering undergraduate program which university should I choose and is education practical oriented or only theory provided and it should not be costly as money is also a problem.

Hello...I am computer science background so I am interested in hardware.so I wanted to become hardware engineer

Hello, I have ph.d degree for vlsi design and working at Big semi-conductor company. I totally agree with this video. It might depends on the area, but regarding yield area, wlb is definetly terrible. I work over 12hr everyday, always work w/ India team at night. And compared to sw eng, tc is so 🥜. If you possible, please work and focus to be s/w eng not h/w eng.

Is hardware a Lonely job?

Hardware engineering is all about passion.

im a man, i love to build and i dont care about money if im happy doing what i like.. i even do not care if im the best one, that doesnt matters to me because life is about finding happiness

No time stamps :(

This video should serve to deflate the "software engineering" ego bubble. Notice at the beginning how she lists the various things that you need to know, and on top of all that comes programming.

Have you applied for a job at TESLA?

I think hardware industry is 10-20 years lead ahed then software industry. In my opinion now a days hardware (computer processors) are much more powerful than windows 10-11 windows 10-11 can not fully optimised with current hardware to give the best performance. ( correct me if I am wrong I am an embedded design enginner , so I don't know much about the semiconductor industry )

Hardware industry is not ahead of the software industry. The problem is the barrier to entry. This barrier means much more funding and labor goes into software. This doesn't mean software is "better" than hardware. It's just that the industry is much more developed because it has far more people, money etc. supporting it.

Hi please answer my question , can a computer engineer or a hardware engineer work as a software engineer ??

Yes sure, you could attend a coding camp or self learn a couple of programming languages. It is definitely possible :)

When AI took over lab bood study (CBC), I as the resident doctor was denied wireless access to the report as soon as ready. I hope this error is corrected, and that AI would share any and every such data with the one who authorized it as soon as available. 😊

I got an Internship at Qualcomm as hardware intern. I searched for the field and found your channel. This is good I subscribed you.

@@exaltant2464 woh that's cool , damn I don't think Qualcomm is going to come to my college, all we get here is big hard-core industries where if I get selected I've to work like on hard wires , but I really don't wanna be that , I like tech , so I'm currently learning python, machine learning bit of AI and SoC projects, so will it help in this company cause I've apply by myself?

*Many* software projects take a _lot_ longer than 1-2 years; Games, OSs, to name two subfields. I don't know where you're getting your ideas from.

i relate to u , i am too a introvert
