Suggested Micro-Projects

Only one micro-project is planned to be undertaken by a student that needs to be assigned to him/her in the beginning of the semester. In the first four semesters, the micro-project are group-based. However, in the fifth and sixth semesters, it should be preferably be individually undertaken to build up the skill and confidence in every student to become problem solver so that s/he contributes to the projects of the industry. In special situations where groups have to be formed for micro-projects, the number of students in the group should not exceed three.

The micro-project could be industry application based, internet-based, workshop-based, laboratory-based or field-based. Each micro-project should encompass two or more COs which are in fact, an integration of PrOs, UOs and ADOs. Each student will have to maintain dated work diary consisting of individual contribution in the project work and give a seminar presentation of it before submission. The total duration of the micro-project should not be less than 16 (sixteen) student engagement hours during the course. The student ought to submit micro-project by the end of the semester to develop the industry oriented COs. Micro project report may be of four to five pages.

Suggestive lists of micro-projects are given here. Similar micro-projects could be added by the concerned faculty:

1. Phase Controlled Rectifier: Build and test the circuit of three phase half wave controlled rectifier.
2. Triggering circuits for Phase-Controlled Rectifiers: Build and test the triggering circuit using PLL for any type of inverter.
3. Choppers: Build and test the Jones chopper circuit.of
   1. PUT and
   2. UJT relaxation oscillator.
4. Inverters: Construct and test a circuit of transistorized inverter and simulate using MATLAB.
5. Dual converters and Cycloconverters: Build and test circuit of single phase to single phase Cycloconverter.
6. Thyristor mounting techniques and Heat sinks : Select and use air cooled type heat sink for Thyristors used in any above Micro Project or the micro project suggested by subject teacher.
