Please contact me if you want a full resume -- I have a spiffy LATEX version! I have done plenty of other exciting and interesting things in the recent past. I'm not presently looking for a change in position, but if you're doing something that you think might excite me, send me some mail anyway; I'd be happy to hear from you. text/html 2012-01-18T03:07:40-05:00 joshuawise http://www.joshuawise.com/projects/sstc2/pfc?rev=1326874060&do=diff The power factor correction stage for SSTC2 was based on Texas Instruments's UCC28019 integrated PFC controller. (For the rationale behind the use of a PFC circuit, see the main page for SSTC2.) Much of the PFC circuit is what one might expect, but for the sake of completeness in documentation, this page contains our implementation notes. Included also are schematics, for one who may wish to replicate this build, and overall lessons learned in designing the system. text/html 2012-01-17T03:45:22-05:00 joshuawise http://www.joshuawise.com/projects/sstc2?rev=1326789922&do=diff Sometime in November of 2011, Chris Lu, Jacob Potter and I decided that we should have a good household project -- and what better of an idea than to build a successor to Chris's original PlasmaSonic II-driven Solid State Tesla Coil (SSTC)? So, we embarked on designing a coil under the parameter of being just a good, solid, durable SSTC. We weren't looking for the biggest TC out there (we couldn't power it), or to get the longest sparks, or the highest power, but just simply a nice solid simpl… text/html 2012-01-12T02:43:48-05:00 joshuawise http://www.joshuawise.com/sidebar?rev=1326354228&do=diff Home - Projects - Words - Résumé - Contact text/html 2012-01-12T02:43:07-05:00 joshuawise http://www.joshuawise.com/content?rev=1326354187&do=diff Sometimes, I do things that don't neatly fall as projects, but are still interesting bits of content that I hope someone else might want to read. A few of them include: * A HOWTO on setting up Kerberized NFSv4 -- somewhat out of date, but may still help you with some of the common pitfalls. * Donate Life -- why I'm listed as an organ donor, and why I hope you will choose to be too.
