Altium PCB schematic capturing and layout as well as component creation
Altium PCB schematic capturing and layout as well as component creation
This was a small pcb project that I used to teach members Altium and how to make PCBs. This was also used as a pcb to test ADCS sensors and drivers. It features some switching regulators, a magnetorquer driver, a magnetometer and a 6 axis inertial measurement unit (3 axis accelerometer and 3 axis gyroscope). There are rows of connectors to allow the software team to interface with these drivers with whichever microcontroller they were using.
Besides this project, I have gotten the chance to work on some other PCBs one of which was for the electrical power system of a hypersonic vehicle (see more about it out here)! I've worked on some personal PCB projects as well include an STM32 transciever board and a full bridge driver and sensor board for my CubeSat Team's MCCATS project. Right now, I'm working on a couple more: a System on Module or SoM PCB for my CubeSat SDR project, and a Keyboard PCB for a friend!

Hand Soldering and Assembling (including iron, hot air, and reflow)
This double-sided PCB was the driver board that I collaborated on with a peer for the MCCATS project (see more about the project here!) Since the components were quite small, we ordered a stencil along with the PCB so that we could use solder paste and a reflow oven to assemble the board. This was the first time I had used a reflow oven!
Besides club projects, my internship at Specter Aerospace gave me the opportunity to practice my board assembling skills as well. There I had the chance to solder large inductors and bolt capacitors into the boards as well as the chance to solder small 0402 SMD passives for a 2-sided board!

RP2040
RP2040
This blue PCB contains an RP2040 and was an earlier version of the Pleiades-Atlas flight control board.

I used this STM32 NUCLEO board to gain familiarity with the STM32 IDE.

IMG_3189.MOVThis is a project that I made for my first engineering class, where we were tasked with designing an interactive program. The idea here was to emulate a secure safe that triggers an alarm if an attempt to steal it or crack it open is made. It detects these cases using a touch and flex sensor, respectively.
I also got my amateur radio ham license in 2024!
