The goal was to develop a hybrid water heating system combining solar and electric sources to heat water to 65 °C. Focused on designing and implementing the temperature sensor conditioning circuit, creating the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout in the software EAGLE, and soldering components. The system automated heating by first raising the temperature to 40 °C via solar energy, then switching to an electric heater to reach the final setpoint, resulting in an energy-efficient solution.
