The University of Texas at Dallas
I am an Electrical Engineering undergraduate student and researcher at The University of Texas at Dallas Renewable Energy and Vehicular Technology Laboratory (REVT). I am responsible for researching, designing, simulating, prototyping, and testing power electronics. I have been an undergraduate researcher at the REVT laboratory for nearly two years. As part of my undergraduate research, I have developed a high-efficiency charger for cell phone applications. My research has outperformed the efficiency of market chargers made by major companies. Additionally, I led a team of undergraduate researchers in the 2024 IEEE International Future Energy Challenge competition (IFEC), which tasked teams with developing a high-power (405 W RMS) multi-channel audio amplifier with minimal distortion and high efficiency. My team and I developed an audio amplifier that exceeded the competition requirements and outperformed every other university's prototype. Consequently, we won the 1st grand prize award of $10,000 at the final competition held in UT Austin. Besides leading the undergraduate team, I contributed significantly to the project, including system modeling, simulation, thermal analysis and design, power stage design, control loop design, PCB layout, troubleshooting, testing, assisting team members, and more.
