New Projects

What's Here?

Hi everyone!  It is now almost the summer of 2022.  I am just settling into my new living situation after some crazy times, and am starting to pick up a few projects for fun.  I have decided that I want to get back to documenting my work.


Unlike before where I would video record everything, I am thinking that I will mostly write out documentation for my work on this website and sparingly include videos for demonstrations or whenever I feel like it!


I have a few projects in mind that I want to accomplish in the near future and with which I will begin this new form of project documentation.  They are: a homemade VNA, a web-interface and driver for my internet PSoC Breakout, and an implementation of a matching algorithm to permute large elements of a sparse matrix to the diagonal - yeah... I got into numerical simulations :/ .


Moving forward, I plan to post all of my hobby work to this website in the same manner as for the three aforementioned projects.

I am posting here as I go.  This is the page containing info on the KiCAD schematic for my VNA project.

Tri-band OpenEMS Antenna Simulation - 05/27/2022

I wanted to have the capability to simulate antennas without expensive software I cannot afford (HFSS, CST, FEKO).  OpenEMS is pretty awesome!

Internet PSoC Breakout - 04/26/2022

This is going to be a bit of a learning experience as well as a valuable tool.  I am making a VNA that will operate from around 50 MHz up to 13.6 GHz.  This is the page containing info on the RF design for my VNA project.

Internet PSoC Breakout - 04/26/2022

If you are discouraged from making printed circuit boards by having to re-do many aspects of a typical circuit on every single project you do, have a look at the Internet PSoC Breakout!

Matrix Permutation Matching Algorithm - 04/25/2022

Matrix Permutation Matching Algorithm - 04/25/2022

I'd like to be able to use iterative methods on my numerical simulations (I'll be posting some sims of E&M waves), but for now my condition number is HUGE.  This is an attempt to implement row permutation as well as row and column scaling, in order to lower the condition number of my matrix.  First Python, then C++ Eigen.

16x16 RGB LED Game system playing Tetris.  You better believe after programming in the frequencies for the song note by note - Tetris was in my dreams.
