PROFILE
Ben Wang
Benjamin Wang contributed hardware design and PCB development to the ISSUIUC/ISS-PCB repository, focusing on the Motor-MK1 board over a two-month period. He designed and refined the 5V-to-3.3V power regulation schematic, adjusted resistor and capacitor values for improved power integrity, and advanced the integration of a power multiplexer to enhance power delivery reliability. Using Kicad Schematic, Benjamin centralized the POWER_MUX symbol within the symbol library and updated the sym-lib-table, enabling modular power management and supporting scalable hardware architecture. His work emphasized maintainability and production readiness, addressing power management challenges and reducing integration risk for the Motor-MK1 hardware.
