William Huang  • Peerlist

● Designed a smartwatch embedded system using ESP32-C3, integrating power management, USB charging, IMU sensing, and display interfaces ● Developed complete schematics and PCB layout in KiCad, including battery charging, 3.3 V regulation, and peripheral integration ● Implemented I²C, SPI, and USB interfaces with proper power sequencing and decoupling

Smartwatch Embedded Hardware Project (Kicad)

• Collaborated within a multidisciplinary team to design and integrate Kyber post-quantum cryptographic hardware into a secure telemetry system. • Designed modular arithmetic hardware (mod 3329) to support post-quantum cryptographic operations used in the Kyber algorithm. • Implemented Barrett reduction and Montgomery multiplication architectures to improve computational efficiency and hardware performance. • Developed self-checking Verilog testbenches with randomized inputs to verify functional correctness and improve validation coverage. • Analyzed latency, resource utilization, and critical path timing to support performance optimization and design refinement.

Post-Quantum Secure Telemetry for CubeSats (N

● Designed a state-machine-based real-time control system using timers, counters, and PWM for fan operation and mode control. ● Integrated SPI, I2C, and GPIO peripherals using interrupt-driven logic with deterministic timing behavior.

Real-Time Fan Control System (State-Based Dig

● Designed a hardware system for computing the 8-bit GCD using Euclid’s Algorithm, demonstrating strong initiative and analytical problem-solving. ● Collaborated effectively with peers to develop and simulate the design in Verilog and Circuitverse, applying analytical thinking to implement a modular FSM and datapath architecture ● Communicated technical concepts through clear documentation, diagrams, and test case analysis
