Projects

Simplified CMOS MIPS Processor - Worked in a team of eight to design, implement and test a 32-bit instruction, 8-bit data CMOS MIPS processor which had 10 instructions. Personal focus was on the ALU. Chose the ALU architecture, did transistor level schematic capture and simulation. Proceeded with layout, layout verification and simulation. Finished by integrating ALU into completed CPU.

DC Servo Motor Control - Designed, built and tested a precision DC servo motor control system in a team of four with open ended specifications. Used DAC0802 IC to interface with parallel port of a PC running the GNU/Linux operating system. Analog proportional feedback circuitry used to prevent the effects of loading. LabVIEW used to verify performance and used in prototyping of project.
