ECE 4040 (4006) Electronics Design Project Martin Brooke email: martin.brooke@ece.gatech.edu
Objectives • The design, analysis, and testing of electronic circuits and systems in a realistic environment. Engineering teams will be formed to design and test various systems. • To provide a realistic design experience in the area of Electronics Design and Applications (EDA)
History • Fall 1999 • 4 students • Spring 2000 • with Control Systems Design Class (Dorsey) • 30 students • Fall 2000 with Dorsey and Laskar (RF lab) • 35 students • Spring 2001 • with Control, Microelectronics, EM, Bio • 75 students, 6 faculty • Fall 2001 • With Control, Microelectronics, Future Truck • 75 students, 4 faculty • Spring 2001 • Part of 4006, enrolment limited to 50 students • Analog/Microelectronics section 2 faculty
Organization • Team Formation Week 1 • Background Work Weeks 2-4 • Design Phase Weeks 6-10 • Build Phase Weeks 10-12 • Test Phase Weeks 12-15
Reporting • Team Formation Statement of work • Background Work Background report • Design Phase Design Report • Build Phase Test Report • Test Phase Final Report
Project Examples • 2.4 and 5.2 GHz RF Digital radio - QAM • Opto electronic Data Links (1 Gbps) • Teleoperated vehicles • Brain wave control • IR data links
Final Presentation Example • 1 Gbps Opto Data link
Final Report Example • QAM encoding using DACs and ADCs
Successes - RF • 2.4 GHz PA, Filters, 4 VCOs, and 4 PLLs
Successes - 1 Gbps Opto Link • Developing test bed for experiments in 1 Gbps data link “open” eye at 1 Gbps!
