Projects
Project : 4 bit Gray down Counter (CMOS)
Description : CMOS physical layout of 4 bit Gray down Counter was designed using the Microwind software. It was identified that all the design constraints and rules were met. The proposed design consists of 4 J-K FF’s connected together that converts 4 bit binary input to gray code and gives the correct simulation results.
Role & Responsibilities: Single handedly worked on the approach, developed and implemented the design.
Project : 4 bit Adder/Subtractor (CMOS)
Description : CMOS physical layout of 4 bit Adder/Subtractor was designed using the Microwind software. All the design constraints and rules were met. The design comprises of 4 full adder circuits cascaded together that can add or subtract a 4 bit binary input and gives the correct simulation results.
Role & Responsibilities: Worked on the methodology and implemented the design by myself.
Project : Asynchronous FIFO Memory design
Description : Asynchronous FIFO was designed and simulated using the Verilog HDL and simulated on Xilinx Vivado 2015.2 tool. It consists of 4 bit input memory that can read and write based on the status whether the memory is full or empty and is simulated and the simulation output results were verified.
Role & Responsibilities: Conceptually worked on the approach and implemented the design.
Project : Traffic Light Controller
Description : The Traffic Light Controller was designed using Verilog HDL and was implemented using NEXYS 4 FPGA. Here we are using 3 LED’s available on the board to represent the output. Push buttons are used to opt for select lines. This implementation of four junction traffic light controller can be directly applied in real time by employing more number of such circuits.
Role & Responsibilities: Individually wrote the code using Verilog HDL and implemented the design on FPGA board.
Project : Digital Alarm Clock
Description : A digital alarm clock was designed using Verilog HDL and implemented on NEXYS 4 FPGA. 7-Segment display was used to display the time of the real time clock and switches to control and reset the time.
Role & Responsibilities: Single handedly worked on the Verilog code and implemented on FPGA board.
Project : MEMS Accelerometer based Fall Detector -
Description : Designed a prototype which detects if a person falls accidentally and identified that it is low power, cost efficient design as compared to other conventional methods. It also traces the location of the person, which when needed can be used to provide immediate help to them.
Role & Responsibilities: Project Leader. Involved in design approach, involved in MEMS sensor concepts and working methodology, analysis of the detection if a person falls, preparation of the final project report.
