Relevant Coursework Includes: Electric Circuit Theory, Microprocessor Systems Engineering, Electromagnetic Theory,
Advance Digital Systems, Local Area Networks, Applied Electronics, Computer Systems, and Many Laboratory Exercises
Key Projects:
● Remote Control Car using Intel Galileo​: Designed, built, and programmed a remote control car using Intel Galileo
to be controlled via Internet. Selected, built, and assembled all components including chassis, motor controller,
and circuit board. Wrote all code for car functions including moving in all directions and braking upon user
request. Programmed Galileo to host web server for controlling car.
● Battery-Powered High Voltage Power Supply: ​Produced a battery-powered high voltage power supply for DC bias
voltage to two electrostatic transducers. Designed the circuit that derived its 200v output from a standard 9v
battery. Tested the circuit virtually using EE software tools. Constructed circuit on a breadboard and tested it using
EE lab equipment. Build a printed circuit board based on circuit design using CAE tools.
