Academic Projects

Design of 8T logic SRAM, comparison with 6T SRAM (University at Buffalo, The State University of New York - Fall

2013)

Designed a low power consuming 8T SRAM and compared it with common 6T model based on parameters like

Power, Static Noise Margin (SNM) and Area.

Both the SRAMS were implemented using Cadence- VirtuosoXL tool.

GIS based power distribution monitoring and fault intimation using GSM (Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution

Corporation Limited ~ TANGEDCO Spring 2013)

Objective of the project is to monitor the power distribution over a specified area and to intimate fault occurrence

using GSM.

Designed hardware to simulate real time power distribution using ARM -7 processor and integrated it along with

Quantum GIS software using the RS-232 protocol.

Grabber Robot using DTMF technology for Survey Analysis (Electrical Technocrats Association - Fall 2012)

Objective of the project was to design a robot that could be controlled from any part of the world.

Designed and developed a robot that can perform industrial operations such as pick and place and drilling over a

particular area. The robot also possessed ability to avoid obstacles and could also be controlled via SIRC protocols.

This was done using ATmega168 microcontroller using the open-source Arduino IDE.

DTMF based control for home appliances (Simple Labs- Fall 2011)

Objective of the project was to design a DTMF based controller for operating the home appliances.

Designed a DTMF decoder circuit and integrated it with ATmega168 microcontroller. Using a normally open

terminal of the relay circuit controlled appliances like fan, bulb.

Prototype of thermistor based temperature control (Anna University- Fall 2009)

Objective was to design a prototype to maintain the required temperature of a nuclear or thermal power plant

Used a thermocouple and employed the basic See Beck effect to measure the temperature and maintain it in the

desired level.
