TECHNICAL SKILLS

Design Programs: Xilinx, ActiveHDL, ModelSim, PSpice, MATLAB

Programming Languages: C, Java, Python, Visual Basic, C++, HTML

Operating Systems: Linux, Windows

Microcontrollers/FPGA Spartan 3E, TI MSP430FG4618, AVR Atmega168, BASIC StampII

Equipment: Oscilloscope, Function generator, Multi-meter

PROJECTS

Senior Design Project: Designed, constructed, and successfully tested a TIs MSP430FG4618 microcontroller based autonomous warehouse management system. The system consisted of an autonomous forklift, equipped with RFID sensors. That is capable of managing a warehouse by receiving palletized shipments, scanning merchandise, auto-navigating through the warehouse to storage locations, storing merchandise in storage locations. Wirelessly communicate to a computer to exchange data and update inventory logs.

Digital Circuit Design: Designed, simulated, and implemented a VGA controller on a FPGA board using VHDL. A simple game was written in VHDL and was simulated in Xilinx. Then the game was displayed and tested on a LCD screen via the VGA out port on a FPGA board. PicoBlaze implementation on SpartanE3 FPGA board. Other RTL designs using ActiveHDL, Xilinx, ModelSim. Basic knowledge of CMOS digital circuit design.

Analog Circuit Design: Designed and simulated a multistage voltage amplifier in PSpice with a gain of 100 V/V, input resistance of 100 MO, output resistance of 200 O.

C Programming: Created a graphing program that allows the user to graph simple functions on a two axis plane.

Object Oriented Programming: Created a simple 4 function calculator.

Python Programming: Created a GUI of a day planner.
