Over a three-month period, contributed hardware design enhancements to the ISSUIUC/ISS-PCB repository, focusing on power management and schematic accuracy. Integrated a battery voltage monitoring chip into the MIDAS-MK2 sensor board, updating the KiCad schematic to enable real-time voltage monitoring without firmware changes. Developed and standardized the PMA-545G1+ schematic symbol, improving component consistency and reducing design cycle time. Enhanced power reliability by adding a 5.5V regulator and introducing symbol libraries for TPS63070 and TPSM82902SIS, updating schematic and library tables for traceability. Demonstrated expertise in KiCad, PCB design, schematic capture, and circuit design, with all changes tracked and documented.
