University of Southern California (USC), Los Angeles.

Bachelor's Degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering

Aug 2004 - May 2008

Coimbatore Institute of Technology, Anna University (AU), India.

WORK EXPERIENCE

Office Assistant - USC Computer Science Department

October 2008 - May 2010

Worked on excel spread sheets, word documents and manning the front desk.

Intern - Indian Railways

October 2005

PROJECTS

ASIC DESIGN

Network on Chip Router

Spring 2010 A Network on

Chip Router was designed and implemented in Register Transfer Level (RTL),

after functional verification it was synthesized followed by static timing

analysis, logical equivalency check and place and route.

DIGITAL VLSI DESIGN

16 Bit Pipelined Multiplier

Fall 2009

Designed and created a layout of a 16 Bit Wallace Tree Multiplier. The

design was pipelined by breaking it up into stages using Flip flops and an

alternate pipeline using Latches to study time borrowing. The designs were

simulated on Hspice.

RADIO FREQUENCY FILTER DESIGN

Passive Filter Design

Fall 2009

Designed a 5th order elliptic filter (SAW filter) used in GSM-850 receivers

using Matlab and implemented the circuit in Cadence-Spectre. The

simulation met a target of 45dB attenuation in the stop band and a 1dB

ripple in the pass band.

Active Filter Design

Fall 2009

Designed a low pass filter based on the 802.11a frequency specifications

using Matlab and implemented the circuit in Cadence-Spectre. The circuit

simulated had a pass band of 10MHz and a pass band voltage gain of 20dB.

DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING

Summer 2009

Worked on Matlab to develop and implement programs like Morphological

Processing, Optical Character Recognition, Dithering and Image Enhancement

Techniques like noise removal and histogram equalization.

SEMICONDUCTOR PROCESSING - Clean room experience

Spring 2009

Fabricated semi-conductive devices and digital circuits on a 3 inch Silicon

Wafer and analyzed electrical characteristics of the devices in a clean

room.

USC Rocket Propulsion Laboratory (www.uscrpl.com)

Spring 2009 - Present

Member of a student group which builds rockets. Worked on pre-preg carbon

fiber and fiber glass airframe fabrication and development of the Data

Acquisition System for static tests.
