    Project Description:

    A student in the Electrical Engineering team can expect to be involved in a variety of space based sensor or camera systems. This may included Mars Rovers, the Lunar Gateway, the International Space Station, and interplanetary spacecraft. One specific such project may be the Martian Moons Exploration (MMX) mission, whose profile relates to the Vertical Descent Phase (VDP) in which MDA's Laser Range Finder (LRF) will be operated. It is understood that the spacecraft will undergo a number of changes in velocity and perform one or more maneuvers as Phobos is approached for a given landing operation. The LRF will be used, during this phase, to provide accurate and precise altimetry. The LRF must survive launch, transit to Mars and operation at Phobos, which demands confidence in the unit's performance and reliability under the harsh environments of interplanetary space.

    Responsibilities:

    Main responsibilities would include:

  • Contribute to the research, development, and manufacture of space flight quality circuit card assemblies
  • Execution of circuit simulations, schematic capture drawing, component sourcing, cable drawing creation, derating analysis, worst case analysis, radiation analysis, FMECA assessment, lab testing of circuits, test procedure planning, EMC compliance planning, presentation of design expectations/results, and participation in design reviews

  • Circuit debug and acceptance test procedure execution in the lab
  • Assist with FPGA test bench preparation and FPGA verification activities
  • Assisting full-time engineering group members with their project assignments
  • Completion of small projects and assignments of various degrees of complexity, ranging from electronic design to test environment programming and documentation
