Users start with an idea, refine that intoasystem architecture, and then iterate physical prototypes. Parts selection happens throughout the process. While certain steps require linear progression, iteration and revision of earlier stages also happen. Overall, EDA tools only support a small part of this process, and moving between steps was a major source of friction.

We close with our observation on opportunities ing users build non-trivial electronics devices.

  • Calqrp Analog Power Meter Assembly Guide John Sutter W1JDS [email protected]
    CalQRP Analog Power Meter Assembly Guide John Sutter W1JDS [email protected] Rev 1.1 August 7, 2018 About 3 weeks ago Doug Hendricks, KI6DS, mentioned he had a club project idea. I think he said he had some low cost meters and thought it would be good to spin an old project, the Christmas Power Meter, using the latest/greatest tools of the day which I’m sure will be laughable in another decade. That earlier project by apparently had the same instigator. Like the original by Song Kang, WA3AYQ and Bob Okas, W3CD, this version of the meter has two ranges, 1W and 10W using a SPDT switch to select between them instead of 2 BNC connectors. Beyond that, the schematic is pretty much the same. The tools I used: Schematic Capture KiCAD PCB Layout KiCAD PCB Fabrication AllPCB Enclosure Design OpenSCAD 3D Printer Creality CR-10 1 The Circuit As mentioned earlier the schematic matches the Christmas Power Meter pretty closely. SW1 is used to switch the power from the BNC connector into either the 10W load consisting of four 200 Ω 3 Watt carbon film resistors or the 1W load consisting of two 100 Ω ½ Watt carbon film resistors. The diodes are used as detectors with the resulting voltage filtered by the capacitors. The resistors are used to adjust the full-scale current to 200 μA. More on that later. FIGURE 1 SCHEMATIC A germanium diode was used on the 1 W range due to its lower voltage drop. More on that later. If you decide to use a through hole switch, the maximum shaft diameter is 6.3 mm.

Dr. Foist received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Washington in 1982 and 1989, respectively. He earned his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of British Columbia in 2011, specializing in signal processing of spectroscopy data with secondary emphasis in system-on-chip implementation. His on-going research interests involve embedded processing using FPGAs and hardware acceleration of algorithms. In the fall of 2011, Dr. Foist joined the College of Engineering at California Baptist University. He is a U.S. Navy veteran who still strives to serve God and country. He has been happily married for 42 years and has four adult children and two grandchildren. Dr. John Butler, California Baptist University Dr. John Butler is currently an Assistant Professor in the department of Electrical and Computer En- gineering at California Baptist University. He received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of California, Riverside, in 2009, 2011, and 2014, respectively. In the fall of 2018 Dr. Butler joined the Gordon and Jill Bourns College of Engineering at California Baptist University as an Assistant Professor. Prior to this, he served as an Adjunct Professor since 2014. His re- search background includes nanoscale fabrication and characterization, particularly of magnetic thin films for data storage and logic devices.

  • Digital Sensors Operate on 3.3V
    Worcester Polytechnic Institute A Major Qualifying Project AURORA Autonomous Unpowered Recovery of Radiosonde Aircraft Submitted By: Richard Eberheim, Robotics Engineering Nicholas Hassan, Robotics Engineering and Electrical & Computer Engineering Joshua O’Connor, Mechanical Engineering Advised By: Kenneth Stafford, Professor Robotics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering Fred Looft, Professor Electrical Engineering This report represents the work of WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its website without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, please see http://www.wpi.edu/academics/ugradstudies/project-learning.html Abstract This project developed an autonomous radiosonde glider that actively steers itself from the apex of its flight to safe recovery locations on the ground. This enables easy and reliable recovery, reducing costs and offering new capabilities to atmospheric researchers. The glider integrates the essential weather sensors used on current radiosondes with those needed for autonomous flight in a durable, easy to manufacture airframe capable of multiple data gathering flights with minimal repairs between each flight. 1 Acknowledgments This project was made possible through the support, guidance, and assistance of the staff and students of Worcester Polytechnic Institute. We would like to thank Professors Ken Stafford and Fred Looft for advising the project. We would also like
