This week, I have to choose which area of chip design that I am going to involved in, and I decided to work on the accelerator for chip design. I had chosen to work on the accelerator for Image Sensor, to accelerate the image sensor output into a raw image that looks real, which is a challenging task for me. Understanding the Image Sensor In order to understand how image sensor produce color, I had read a lot of information about Read more
This week just goes by so quickly, and it is a week where i do not have a senior intern to help out with my project. My this week challenge is to implement SSL with PIC18F. I’ll be using the TCPIP source code provided by Microchip Technology for my project. I start with preparing a project folder that is able to enable SSL stack. The process of doing this is pretty straight forward, first is to include BigInt.h, RSA.h, ARCFOUR.h, Read more
Hi everyone, aeste works is now occupied by four interns. Our veteran, khai yong (Peter), my colleague + current uni-mate, Alex, maisha who is an EE student in APU and lastly yours faithfully. If anyone is looking for a challenging internship that will test you to your limit, do send your application to Aeste works. My second week ended quite abruptly. Here I am, still dazed by the complexity of the Wt/Witty platform, which is used to build to the Read more
This week I working on the TCP network performance. I needed to collect the data and make a graph for analyzing purposes. I had collected 15 samples for each RX and TX pin, which buffer size range from 100 to 1900. I have created a large dummy file to test the performance of RX pin. By using netcat, I keep sending the data to the pin and it returns the speed of each second. After finishing the data collecting part, Read more
There are few results that had been obtained to testing the performance of the RTOS. Compare the relationship between instruction cycle used for initialization with different optimization level in different type of RTOS For initialization OS, FreeRTOS is much more higher than Contiki. The is due to there are a lot of instruction cycle spend to create the task in TCB.There are three task need to be created in the FreeRTOS multiple task program. FreeRTOS needs 1000 plus instruction cycle Read more
Hi everyone, I’ve just started my work as an Intern Engineer in AESTE and today marks the fourth day which I have spent in this company. For the next 15 weeks (if I’m still an intern here), I will fill up this blog with my weekly personal experiences and learning outcomes. I was tasked with learning a great deal of C++, C, HTML Javascript and some computer architecture basics, which I did not finish. My boss was disappointed and so Read more
Time passes quickly and my internship has come to an end. Throughout this journey I have learnt a lot and gained a lot of new insights especially from my supervisor, Dr Shawn. I would like to extend my appreciation to Dr Shawn for all his guidance and advice in this journey. He has taught us how to be a better engineer and also a better person as a whole. I have learnt that a developer or programmer has to achieve their objective Read more
Now that my week 3 has passed, I would say I am not as clueless as before. I have shown my previous week’s work on witty application with backend WResource to Dr Shawn. Subsequently it was followed by a session defining my aims in the project I have been assigned. I am supposed to initially make cloud storage work as the client’s permanent storage, while the two other portions of the project will be incorporating other projects to mine. With Read more
This week, I had been assigned task on learning the schematics from Verilog. Schematic of Xilinx ISE I think this is a good approach in learning Verilog, because I actually get to know how does the Verilog codes affect the circuits. At first, I was merely following the schematics that produced by the Xilinx ISE tools, I really felt that it is almost impossible for a human to draw a full schematic like that. However, after reading previous posts on Read more
First day of work already got scolded by the Boss, “Another two useless Intern!”, “Call Rodney now,” “I’m thinking whether to fired you 2 now, cause i won’t lose anything”, “simple things also cannot do”, “if you don’t understand read more lah, I give you all so much time and you still cannot finish it”, “WHY!!, explain to me WHY!”, and I diam diam only XD, “I give you 1week time to finish everything and follow everything from the senior Read more
