## Overview
This repository is power-electronics coursework, not a software runtime: it contains two lab exercises and a heavy-vehicle DC-DC converter project. The documented lab workflow is to build circuits, characterize them with bench equipment, and compare measurements with theory. The project covers a 24V-to-12V converter design, PCB, and bench validation. The graph represents these documented activities and artifacts; detailed wiring between project files is not established by the available excerpts.
