6 About the Author

MILEN STEFANOV (M.Sc.E.E) is a system engineer at TI, working in the Grid Infrastructure field and an expert in RF communication technologies and (smart) metering applications. After graduating, he spent 5 years as a research assistant at the University of Chemnitz (TUC) and 3.5 years in the semiconductor industry in high-speed optical and wired communications as a system engineer. He joined TI in 2003 to become a Wi-Fi ® expert and to support TI’s Wi-Fi products at major OEMs. Since 2010, he has focused on metering and Sub-1 GHz RF designs for the European Grid Infrastructure market. Mr. Stefanov has published multiple articles on wM-Bus technology in Europe and presented technical papers at the Wireless Congress and Smart Home and Metering summits in Munich.

GAVIN LOERA (B.S BME) is a system engineer at TI, working in the Grid Infrastructure field and focusing on Current Sense technologies and metering applications. After graduating, he spent some time as a Test Technician for Abbott Laboratories, before accepting a position at TI in the Applications Rotation program in 2022. His first rotation was with the Grid Infrastructure SEM team, where he began his focus on metering and current sensing. His second rotation was with the Precision Analog-Digital Converters (PADC) Applications team, where he learned more about precision ADCs which directly reinforced his knowledge in current sensing.
