Pragun Bethapudi refined the PROVES_Cosmic_Watch hardware in the BroncoSpace-Lab/CADENCE repository, focusing on PCB layout improvements and power delivery enhancements. Using CAD and KiCad, Pragun updated component placement, added mounting holes, and clarified silkscreen markings to improve manufacturability and reduce production risk. By introducing 5V vias near critical power pins, Pragun strengthened power integrity for key components, addressing potential reliability issues. Additionally, Pragun removed obsolete hardware artifacts from the repository, streamlining documentation and reducing confusion for future iterations. This work demonstrated depth in electronics engineering and hardware design, supporting faster prototype cycles and clearer handoffs for production readiness.

June 2025 performance summary: Delivered meaningful hardware design refinements for the PROVES_Cosmic_Watch in CADENCE and improved power routing, while tightening repo hygiene. Key changes include PCB layout refinements with better mounting holes and silkscreen clarity, and added 5V vias near critical power pins to strengthen power delivery. Also removed an obsolete hardware artifact to reduce confusion and potential mis-use, enabling faster, lower-risk prototype iterations. Overall, these efforts reduce production risk, accelerate hardware readiness, and demonstrate strong PCB design, power integrity, and artifact management skills.
