Summer Intern, Midas Communication Technologies, Chennai, India May -July 2007 - Developed a user configurable Ethernet controller card . - Designed the Layout of the Ethernet Controller Card using ORCAD. - Programmed the EEPROM and the Ethernet Controller IC using the IC programming kit. - Used the DSO for verifying the output.
PROJECTS
Design of a sequential shift-add multiplication circuit May 2009 Designed a sequential 8 bit multiplication circuit using shift-add methodology. The project involved the area-delay analysis of the design with two different addition implementations – Ripple Carry Adder and the Carry Look Ahead Adder. Verilog HDL was used for RTL coding of the circuit. The simulation and synthesis was done using the Synopsys tool. Toshiba tc240c.db_NOMIN25 library was used for synthesis. Integration and Testing of an 8 x 8 ATM Switch May 2009 Incomplete softcores and testbenches of an 8 x 8 ATM switch were provided. The project involved completing the softcores, integrating the functional modules and verifying the working of the ATM switch. System verilog was used for coding and the testing and verification was done using Synopsys. Design of an 8 point FFT/IFFT IP based on the butterfly algorithm April 2009 Designed and verified an 8 point FFT/IFFT IP (fixed point model). The coding was done in verilog and Xilinx was used for synthesis and simulation. The FFT/IFFT code was based on the butterfly algorithm. The project also involved a comparative analysis with the floating point Matlab model. Design of an FIR filter March 2009 Designed a parameterizable FIR filter using a multiply and accumulate circuit. Verilog was used for coding and the synthesis and simulation was done using the Xilinx tool.
Design of a Multiply and Accumulate circuit Feb 2009 Designed a n x n MAC circuit using Xilinx coregen. 2C fractional format was used for the inputs. Verilog HDL was used for RTL coding of the MAC and it was synthesized and simulated in Xilinx. A 4 x 4 MAC circuit was implemented on Spartan 3 FPGA board. Rough set approach to unsupervised neural network based pattern classifier Apr 2008 Developed a system for pattern classification based on Rough Neuro Hybrid Approach using MATLAB Micro Mouse – Auto Guided maze solving robot Dec 2006 Designed a 8051 Microcontroller based Micromouse capable of detecting obstacles and finding its own path through an undefined maze PUBLICATION
