Featured Project: Designing a PCB<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

This project describes my contribution to the Umbilical Project as an Avionics Member of the Yellow Jacket Space Program. It was my first experience designing a printed circuit board, the purpose of which is to actuate an electromagnet to produce a desired range of magnetic field in both directions. I found this so enticing that I also used it as the technical project for my ECE Discovery Studio class. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PCB was designed using Altium and implemented with N-channel MOSFETs using a full bridge topology. Not only did this project provide an introduction to PCB design, but it also taught me how to source compatible parts for chips, and design a schematic using conventions that make it easy for others to understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
