• Traffic Light Controller, Verilog / FPGA Project, Built an FSM-based traffic light controller in Verilog and programmed it to a ZYBO Z7-10 FPGA, Implemented multi-second traffic light timing using hardware counters on a 50 MHz clock, Added sensor-driven logic to dynamically control traffic flow while enforcing safety constraints
• Daylight Sensor, Analog Circuit Project, Designed and built a light-responsive circuit using an op-amp, photoresistor, potentiometer, and battery sources, Calibrated component values and tested circuit response to achieve dependable switching behavior, Refined circuit performance through iterative testing and troubleshooting to improve response consistency
• Voltage-Controlled Oscillator Analysis, LTspice / Analog Circuit Lab, Modeled and analyzed an op-amp-based voltage-controlled oscillator in LTspice using transient simulation, Derived the relationship between input voltage and oscillation frequency and compared theoretical results with simulation data, Evaluated waveform behavior across multiple input voltages by measuring oscillation frequency and interpreting responses
