2.  “32-bit MiniMIPS ALU” using VHDL on Xilinx Spartan-3E (M.Tech LAB Project)
 “Traffic Light Controller” on ARM7 LPC2148 Edutech Board (M.Tech LAB Project)
 Laser Audio Transmission (B.E. Final Year Project)
Description: This project is a proof-of-concept device that transmits an audio signal using a laser beam, while
removing the need for the user to align the transmitter and Receiver. Receiver receives the audio signal in the form of
laser beam and converts it back to electrical audio signal.
Hardware: PIC16F877A microcontroller, Stepper Motor, LM358N, Opto-isolator 4N35, Photo Transistor
Programming Language: Embedded C
Tools & IDEs: Proteus (For simulation), MPLAB (For code development)
 Fastest Finger First (B.E.)
Description: The project is based on 8051 microcontroller. Useful for quiz games, the Fastest Finger First circuit
displays the player number along with a beep sound when specified player presses the button before other.
 FM Radio (B.E.)
Description: The project is a simple FM Receiver works on transistors and variable capacitor which uses the
frequency range 88 to 108 MHz.
