ITT Corporation Company Vadodara, Gujarat, India

Research and Development Intern Duration: August 2009 – May 2010

Title: Quasi-Resonant SMPS Design & PMDC Motor Control for Bottled Water System

Description: In this project a Quasi-Resonant Fly-Back Universal SMPS was designed using UCC28600 Green Mode controller for efficient power supply to drive the motor to supply water and PIC16F688 micro-controller for controlling the PMDC motor for featuring Bottled Water System.

Role: Responsible for designing the base circuit of the SMPS and simulating the circuit

Consider base components for the circuit design and signal conditioning

Designed flow diagram for features addition and design criteria.

Developed C programming for the PIC controller

Simulating Circuit on OrCad PSpice and designing PCB layout

Documentation for the project

Education

Masters in Embedded Software Engineering - May 2012

Gannon University Erie, PA

GPA: 4.0

Bachelor of Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering – June 2010

Babaria Institute of Technology Vadodara, India

Honors- Got a scholarship and student excellence award from college for getting 2nd Rank among class.

Graduate Projects

Title: Real Time Simulator

Description: Design model on Matlab Simulink and simulate it on the QNX real time simulator under the real time environment. The Simulink model is converted in C code using Real time Workshop (RTW) and transfer to the simulator by ftp protocol. A new front end tool is developed using C#.NET on Microsoft Visual studio platform on the host side for the user to easily access the functionality and background task for the model to simulate and configure for hardware in loop.

Title: Four Pole Traffic Light

Description: This project uses the timer and counter concept to light the LED for the four way traffic direction. Study the circuit and simulate in Orcad PSPice. Designed the Layout for the circuit and developed the PCB Board using LPKF Board Master.

Undergraduate Projects

Title: Heart rate meter

Description: This project uses the principle of variations in light intensity when passing through the finger’s blood are directly proportionally to the human pulse rate.

Title: Digital heart beat counter

Description: This project helps us to count the heart beat of a person in 10 sec by sensing the pulse vibration with help of Piezoelectric Accelerometer on hand and displaying the beats digitally on two 7-segment display.
