Engineering Projects

A collection of hands-on projects showcasing analog design, RF systems, and embedded solutions.

PIC18F Digital Multimeter (Voltmeter & Ohmmeter)

Mar – Apr 2026

Fully interrupt-driven digital multimeter on a PIC18F46K22 measuring DC voltage (0–10V) and resistance (0–99.9 kΩ). Configured ADC, external interrupts (3 buttons), and timer ISR for 3-digit multiplexed 7-segment display using MCC. All button logic handled exclusively in ISRs — no polling. Modular C architecture with dedicated MultiM.h library; implemented hold mode, sleep/wake, and decimal positioning.
