protocol such as RS 232.
Academic Projects:
Implementation of Real-time Operating Systems:
. Designed a PIC controller that implements a selectable cooperative or
preemptive RTOS with support for semaphores, yielding, and system
timers.
. Developed an algorithm to implement priority based scheduling to
queued processes.
Low Frequency Signal Generator and Analyzer:
. Designed a system capable of capturing analog signals and generating
various waveforms using PIC processor.
. Command line interface capable of controlling the system and providing
captured data back to the user with various other functionalities.
Interfacing a Microcontroller and a LCD Panel with backlights to display
text and images:
