1. JVS Electronics Pvt Ltd, Bengaluru, India
Position: Hardware Engineer
Duration: September 2019 – Present
Projects Worked:
I. Transformer protection relay (JD100)- To have overall over current and over voltage protection for protection. Designing using Microcontroller/ Microprocessor
(PIC16, PIC32) and associated subsystems such as the power supply, I/O interfaces, ADC, Signal conditioning circuits, displays and communications module.
II. Trip Circuit Supervision Relay (TCSR)- TCSR is used for monitoring healthiness of the circuit breaker (CB) trip circuit, CB trip coil and CB power supply. The monitoring of two trip coil circuit has to be done by only one TCSR. III. Automatic power factor correction (APFC)- To have automatic power factor correction in power system application. It uses MCP39F521 microchip IC to have control and monitoring of power factor of system.
IV. Universal Switch mode power supply card- (18-265V) universal power supply card which is capable of supplying various compact power system device. 66 kHz option for highest efficiency requirements, Accurate programmable current limit, Optimized line feed-forward for line ripple rejection, Frequency jittering reduces EMI filter cost, fully integrated soft-start for minimum start-up stress, 725 V rated MOSFET, Simplifies meeting design derating requirements. 2.
