Current state - The current control system is not self contained and uses a class AB amplifier which makes the system large and nonmodular.
Desired state - A fully enclosed control system that efficiently operates the DMF chip while providing accurate feedback.
Project Goals - Make key improvements to functionality of control system, and complete all assigned deliverables.
Repeatable, consistent droplet motion. Durable, lightweight, modular design.
Constraints - Use provided DMF chip, control fluid droplets using electrowetting, use DI water as test fluid, ensure compatibility with peripheral hardware and GUI.
