-
Circuit Building
-
Component Specifications
-
Component Functionality
Experiences
My motivation for this project also came from my co-op experiences. In all of my co-ops, I worked with the PMP/Components team at L3Harris and was able to really focus my interest on components, which I enjoyed. During these semesters I was able to work on many projects both big and small, but all taught me a lot about processes along with teaching me a lot about hardware. I learned many different specifications along with getting to know the difference in commercial and military grade parts. With everything that I learned, I wanted to take this knowledge and apply it to my senior project. I feel that this gives me a chance to apply what I have learned and show where my interests lay.
