I’m Atharva Phadke, an IoT and Embedded Systems Engineering student with a deep-seated passion for hardware design, analog and digital electronics. From custom 4-layer PCB design to low-level microcontroller drivers, I love building complete, highly optimized embedded systems.
I like to analyze complex machines/systems in real life, dismantle them to study their coordination, and reconstruct them using my own methods.
