PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Assisting with the qualification of alternate electronic components for use in our line of Animal containment products.
This project will entail building and testing high-voltage electronic fence energizers with alternate parts.
Once the products are built, they will need to be tested against existing products for comparison purposes.
If the units function adequately, then they will need to be boxed up and sent to our Knoxville facility for long term validation testing.
In addition, substitute solar panels will need to be benchmarked against our existing products for output power.
This project entails a comprehensive review of our electronic product portfolio to make sure our records are adequate and complete for all products we manufacture.
Some of our electronic products do not have proper documentation (i.
e.
, schematics / OCAD files).
The intern will examine products and check them against existing libraries of files to see whether the content exists, and if so, determine if the content is accurate.
If there is any missing information, then the intern will be required to create the missing documentation using ORCAD.
There will also be a need to improve the organization of our files so that they are labeled in a fashion that makes them easy to find based on the product name or SKU number.
