UVM based test bench for Memory Sub-System core level verification
July 1, 2015 – Present
Memory sub-system consists of RAM, ROM. Cache controller and SPI controller to access external flash memory. This memory sub-system was new IP as part of the IoT chipset. The verification involves developing test bench from scratch, scoreboard development for Cache Controller, SPI controller, test plan development and formal verification of all the ahb master/slave and other functional blocks.
UVM based test bench for LMH core level verification
January 1, 2015 – Present
Limits Management Hardware (LMH) is a controller which de-accelerates processor clock in Snapdragon chipsets. The idea is to reduce the clock edges by swallowing them when the temp or the current flowing is above a threshold level and stabilize the temp and current throughout. This LMh module is connected to the performance processor in order to throttle it whenever needed. The verification involves enhancing test bench for the new features, test plan development, formal verification of the ahb slave and all the other functional blocks.
Chlorophyll Based Battery
June 1, 2012 – July 1, 2012
This project was part of Siemens Intern Tech Challenge 2012. The idea is to find a stable method by selecting catalysts to perform artificial photosynthesis of water for producing electric charge which can be used. The by-products are oxygen which can be used for making oxygen cylinders and Hydrogen which can be stored and later use as hydrogen fuel.
Hands Free Room Controller
May 1, 2012 – July 1, 2012
This project was a part on my internship in Siemens. Seismic sensors are used to decode the gesture produced by user and then wireless transmission of that signal controlling various appliances inside the room. The same idea is to develop intrusion detector and auto-theft detector. Patent is also filed based on this idea.
FPGA Implementation of Neuro Fuzzy Processor with Adaptive Learning
January 1, 2012 – December 1, 2012
The idea is to build a processor based on artificial neural network and fuzzy logic. This system is based on a custom neural device which can implement either Multi-Layer Perceptrons or Fuzzy Paradigms. This system is implemented on Cyclone II based Altera FPGA Board.
Third Eye
August 1, 2011 – January 1, 2012
This project was part of TI Analog Design Contest - 2011. This project aims at developing a low cost portable real time image processing based Navigation Device For Blind people enabled with directional assistance through speech. This system involves processing a live feedback from a webcam in an OMAP based Beagle Board.
Satellite Image Processing
May 1, 2011 – June 1, 2012
This project was part of my intern at ISRO. The aim was to detect water bodies from a 7- band satellite image obtained from LANDSAT satellite. A Matlab GUI was built taking satellite image as input and applying NDWI algorithm for finding area covered with water bodies.
Gesture Based Wireless Gaming platform
August 1, 2010 – December 1, 2010
Aim was to build a gaming platform which can interpret gestures wirelessly and move object according to it in 2 dimensions. An lcd was interfaced with microcontroller, accelerometers are used for gesture detection and sonar is used for wireless transmission.
