RESEARCH AND DESIGN PROJECTS
Battery Charging/Discharging System (Nov 2017 - Present) Designing TI MSP430 controlled device can automatically charge/discharge Dell batteries by reading relative state of charge and other design specs info from Battery Gas Gauge IC over SMBus protocol. Device automatically switch to charging mod and generate corresponded charging voltage send charging command into Gauge IC if RSOC under 20%, stop charging until RSOC met 25%. Device automatically switch to discharging mod, MCU controls active load transistors to maintain discharging current at 0.5C, stop discharging until RSOC met 28%
BMU Power Consumption Automatic Testing Bundle (May 2017) Designed and builded ARM FPGA based device can automatically read blocks from certain address of BMU of Dell batteries over SMBus protocol to define and generate corresponding voltage to test power consumption of each terminals of BMU. Automatically send SMBus commands into Battery Gas Gauge IC to open/close charging/discharging MOSFET and sleeping mode (under low clock rate) to measure power consumption at each mode. Collect measured data and store data into computer over RS-232 protocol for further battery failure analysis purpose
Conway’s Game of Life (Fall 2016) Using 2 or more buttons on the FPGA board, in order to seed the game with a value read from ROM, this will start to display pixels in a certain pattern on the LCD screen based on the initial seed. Then the pixels will evolve into different shapes based on the rules of the game. RAM was utilized because information about each pixel will have to be stored
Encrypted ID Verification System (Fall 2016) Design a secure FPGA-based password verification system with token and acknowledge that could apply to either ID verification or encrypted hardware communication
Electric Guitar Amplifier (Spring 2016): Designed and builded a prototype small signal linear amplifier system on PCB boards with OPA and BJT with power supply system. Simulation schematic in NI Multisim. Soldering all components on PCB boards and assembly into metal plate chassis. The power supply system takes 110VAC power from wall outlet to support 15VDC (15watts) and 35VDC (100watts) to preamp system and 2nd stage high-power amplifier system. Receives 0.1mWatt signal which frequency range at 5Hz - 20 kHz from electric guitar and output 100 watts signal drives 4x12 speaker cabinet with overdrive, equalizer and loopback functions
8 bit Memory Circuit (Fall 2015): Designed and builded a prototype transistors level memory circuit with 8 bit capacity able to read/write by 4 bit addressing via MOSFETs
Image Processing Tool-MatLab Programming (Fall 2013): designed and written MatLab image processing code prompted the user to edit the image
Sum-Bot Test Plan (Fall 2013): NI LabVIEW programming for robot with color sensors and ultrasonic sensors, let the self-searching objectives in a color marked area and push these objectives out of this area
