Week 9

What was accomplished?

Goal: Start testing with the physical circuit and in Fusion360. Wrap up any online tests
- Allison: Order new parts for making PCBS (silk screen, solder mask, flux, etc.), build plan
- Samantha: Finish pre-testing, set up testing sections, and begin testing them with Claire
- Claire: Transfer MATLAB script into Arduino w/ custom function I made.
Team accomplishment: Individual part progression
- Samantha: Finished pre-test procedure(pwr sourse TBD), cut off sections were planned and the first three were set up for testing
- Allison:
- Claire: Advanced progress in creating "moving" or changing values with respect to time and testing them with the multimeter and possibly the oscilliscope

W9- Weekly Report

Findings / Progress:
- Figured out how to genreate randomized values with Guassian noise (statistically random noise that helps to mimic realistic values in the real world).
Plan for next week:
- Adjust the code to account for the voltage cap of 4.7 volts for the data type of 4095 for the 12-bit DAC.
- Figure out what needs to be added to the model so that the MATLAB function block script runs smoothly and in real time.

Lead: Samantha for documentation and operation | Claire for overall design and goals

Breadboard Testing Procedure

Goal: See signals (just one for this week) on the oscilloscope
Findings / Progress:
- Improved formatting + possible strategies
- Pre-test procedure accomplished (pwr source TBD)
- Testing sections were planned and the first three were prepared for testing
Plan for next week:
- Finish preparing sections for testing
- Begin testing the breadboard with the oscilloscope
