INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE
Electrical Engineering Intern, MTS Systems Corporation (EP, MN) May '13 to Aug '13
Used CAN bus to obtain information between MTS power electronic board and MTS controller. Also, worked on the
establishment of new EtherCAT communication channel between the same.
Configured Hilscher COMX100, CIFX50 using SYCON.net and used SIMULINK coder for programming TI DSP, FPGA
and C # to obtain easy information from CAN bus.
Worked on Small Signal Interrupt timing of DSP using SIMULINK and C. Also, designed layout using Eagle and tested
PCB boards to reduce common mode signal.
PROJECTS
Advanced PLC
Dr. Erickson Aug '13- Present
Establish Communication network between PLC's (ControlLogix, PLC-5) and currently working on system simulation &
checkout. In the near future, will be working on real -time project and integrate HMI with PLC. Also, other IEC languages
and factory communications.
ESD Locator System Jan '13 to May '13
Signal Integrity, High Speed digital and RF design lab, Dr. Pommerenke
Designed high speed ADC board, trigger circuit and power circuit board for ESD locator system to locate the origin of ESD
pulses using antenna method.
Used Altium designer for schematic and layout design of PCB. Soldered the PCB boards with various IC's, 0805, 0603, 0402
SMD and tested them using Network analyzer, Oscilloscopes.
Jan '13 to May '13

Designed faster than clock receiver using Cadence Virtuoso capable of receiving 1 bit every 2 FO4 delays (i.e. 4 bits/ clock)
by designing differential input receiver/sampler, 12 -input multiplexor, Edge detector and hold circuitry in transistor level.
Phase locked loop in 0.5um technology Jan '13 to May '13
Advanced VLSI, Dr. Beetner
Designed phase locked loop to generate 12 clock signals for faster than clock receiver by designing phase frequency detector,
charge pump, voltage controlled oscillator, divide by counter blocks using Cadence Virtuoso in transistor level.
ESD protection Structure Jan '13 to May '13
Built an ESD protection structure for 10kV human body model (HBM) event with peak current of 6.5A, design goal being
minimization the area of the circuit.
Implemented RC triggered power clamp, O/P driver FETs and boost bus approach in 0.5um tech., Cadence Virtuoso to
achieve the goal.
Electric drive Systems Aug '12-Dec '12

Speed Control of Brushless DC Drives using MATLAB SIMULINK.
Dec '11 – Apr '12
Design of Low power Multiplier with RSTAT
Designed low power multiplier with RSTAT for DSP functions by filtering out spurious switching power signals to increase
the speed of operation and to reduce the power consumption of multiplier using Verilog for the wireless network applications.
Visakhapatnam Steel Plant May '11 - Jun '11
Gathered Information on the operation of air separation plant and exposed to the communication of PLC SCADA system in
the large steel plant.
8-bit picoProcessor Feb '11- May '11
Design of 8-bit picoProcessor by implementing ALU, memory blocks, instruction, execution registers using VHDL and
