Embedded Firmware Engineer
Nishtula Instrument & Innovation Pvt. Ltd.
04.2019 - 05.2022
- Projects: Micro hardware in the loop(μHIL) System Development Board
- Client: L&T Technology Services,German
- Environments: EAGLE 9.4.2, DSP (TMS320F28069) Development Board, Code Composer Studio 9.1, SPI, CAN 2.0B, LIN, RTC, EEPROM, EMBEDDED C.
- Description: The board was designed to imitate input data from various sensors and respond through actuator. The system has many ADC, DAC, relay, digital potentiometer, communication protocol like CAN, rs232, LIN implemented over it for electric vehicle charging station
- Responsibilities: Done the driver programming for communication protocol (SPI, I2C, CAN). To do the code for testing the all peripheral (relay, L298 (PWM), DAC, ADC). In this project I have done the debugger testing also.
- Projects: GPRS based Data-logger
- Environments: Stm32cubeIDE,Stm32f105rb(Controller),RS485,sim808(GPS,GSM),OLED(0.96IN CH),CMSIS RTOS v2.
- Description: This is a Data-logger system which acquire MODBUS RTU slave device data GPS modem data and Transmit it to the server through GPRS and display data in OLED display. This IOT device can be configured and monitored by server.
- Responsibilities: Development of RTOS threads for AT command processing for GPS,GSM/GPRS, Driver development for EEPROM and OLED display, Support in OS code intergradation
- Projects: Gateway (CAN-CAN-RS232-RS485)
- Environments: Keil μVision 5, AT89S8253, CAN, RS232, RS485, AT24C08,Embedded C
- Description: The system controlled with computer application is designed to bridgecommunication between to differently configured CAN, CAN, RS232, RS485 bus which may be present in a separate system. This system will connect through USB to computer.
- Responsibilities: As Firmware Programmer, create the environment for testing the GATEWAY. Testing the communication protocol and in the Communication protocol, handle the data accuracy at the receiving end.
