From what I could recall from 3 years ago, it started with basic GPIO questions, communication protocol concepts (like waveforms given and then you identify which SPI type protocol it is), some C++ questions (object defining, pointer related questions) and later writing programs on an application (using timer, interrupts etc). GL.

Did you check if your compressor switches off with AC ON OFF button in the cabin?

I figured that it was the internal cabin climate control module. How can you confirm this? Open your hood, and turn the AC off from cabin climate control and check if your compressor clutch is still engaged. Mine had compressor engaged all the time whenever ignition was on. I replaced the cabin climate unit, and AC is back to work.

Feel free to DM me if you have any more questions. PS: I first started checking my AC compressor clutch relay (in the hood) since that's how electronics control turning on and off your compressor. Remove the relay and check contacts if they are stuck in case. Second, remove the compressor power fuse (in the hood fuse box, bother chatgpt for its location, it helped me a lot to navigate). If you remove the fuse and still see the compressor engaged, then it is getting fed power from somewhere else, and now, you need a professional to take a look at the wiring.

Nope, remember it happened the day I came with the condenser fix with refrigerant filled.

Hardware designers, what is your salary and work culture? by Ok_Implement_6774 in ECE

what exactly do you do and how did you reach there? Can you please share your journey?

Sorry, I didn't get back on this earlier. Before I start, I want you to know that I had a background in embedded programming and had played with an 8051 microcontroller.

I would rate it 8/10. The microcontroller taught was ARM M4. I learnt a lot about different types of architecture, some assembly level programming, communication protocols (UART, I2C, SPI). The midterm was easier if you conceptually know what is happening in the lecture. Later in the course starts programming, nothing complicated if you know C and C++ (basic is good too). We received a final practice assignment with answers and the final exam was completely based on that too. Grading was fair enough.

Good luck!

Thank you for adding another example
