aw-menu's Introduction

Hi there ๐Ÿ‘‹


I'm a software engineering intern at Microsoft working on the brand new Surface Duo folding phone. Last year, I did a 9-month co-op at Apple as a hardware engineer on the Apple TV. From San Francisco, CA. Junior (?) at Cal Poly SLO studying electrical engineering.

๐Ÿ”ญ Cool Projects


suild.com: Website to sell PCB-based electronics products for Nerf blasters, host interactive web applications, and offer technical documentation. 30,000+ annual sessions, MERN stack.

montychoy.com: My personal website. Check out that dope home image. I overhaul the site every year for internship application season.

Select-Fire Rapidstrike Kit: PCB-based product to enable select-fire control in a Nerf blaster. Features ATmega328P MCU, DC-DC converter, & PID controlled inductive load powered by a high-discharge LiPo battery. 300+ sold to 10+ countries.

Flywheel Setup Picker: Basically Reddit for motorized Nerf blasters.

More stuff about me

๐Ÿค” Random Interests


๐Ÿ’ป Computer organization/SoC platform architecture:

  • Just reading up. Doing stuff is super complicated.
  • After modeling microarchitecture + ISA + MCU to implement RISC-V ISA, I don't really like HDL/RTL stuff, but I'm still super interested in how everything works.
  • Worked with Apple A-core SoCs and Qualcomm Snapdragon platform on Surface Duo.

As my mentor said:

That shit is super complicated man

โšก Buck converters:

  • Designing my own buck converter. Starting with just simulations to analyze ideal open-loop steady-state behavior.
  • Haven't taken signals & systems class, don't know jack about controls (if you're an interviewer reading this, ask me about literally anything else).
  • Plan on designing buck converter PCB. Will use IC to handle controls, but everything else (FETs, caps, inductor, feedback network) will be discretes.
  • DC-DC lead on a project at Apple, worked on Apple's custom PMUs and multiphase bucks.

Me (freshman after being asked this in an interview):

What's stability in a buck converter?

Taufik (power electronics professor):

HAHAHA I can't tell you until you're in third year
