9.Priority Management for Traffic Signal Using Handheld Device Using RF

PRIORITY MANAGEMENT FOR TRAFFIC SIGNAL USING HANDHELD DEVICE USING RF

The main aim of the project is to design a system which will be helpful for the vehicles in the highly rush area. The purpose of the system is to help VIP person who are in emergency by clearing the traffic and giving the way to the vehicle using RF technology. This project consists of two parts RF Transmitter part and RF Receiver.

Whenever VIP’s vehicle enters into heavy traffic jam area it will send signal to the

controller by pressing key from the keypad which is connected to the controller.

Controller will access this data and passes to the transmitter.

RF transmitter sends this information to the Receiver part which is located at

the traffic signal indicator. After receiving the data from the transmitter, receiver will

indicate to the microcontroller that vehicle is located in that area. According to that

receiver section will clear the traffic in desired way by indicating Green LED.

Every system is automated in order to face new challenges in the present day

situation. Automated systems have less manual operations, so that the flexibility,

reliabilities are high and accurate. Hence every field prefers automated control systems.

Especially in the field of electronics automated systems are doing better performance.

Any automated system will work effectively if it access wirelessly. Here in this project

we are going to use RF communication for remote accessing of automated system.

Probably the most useful thing to know about the RF communication is that it is an

international standard communication.

RF communication works by creating electromagnetic waves at a source and

being able to pick up those electromagnetic waves at a particular destination. These

electromagnetic waves travel through the air at near the speed of light. The wavelength of

an electromagnetic signal is inversely proportional to the frequency; the higher the

frequency, the shorter the wavelength.

INTRODUCTION

A Micro controller consists of a powerful CPU tightly coupled with memory,

various I/O interfaces such as serial port, parallel port timer or counter, interrupt

controller, data acquisition interfaces-Analog to Digital converter, Digital to Analog

converter, integrated on to a single silicon chip.

If a system is developed with a microprocessor, the designer has to go for external

memory such as RAM, ROM, EPROM and peripherals. But controller is provided all

these facilities on a single chip. Development of a Micro controller reduces PCB size and

cost of design.

One of the major differences between a Microprocessor and a Micro controller is that a

controller often deals with bits not bytes as in the real world application.

Intel has introduced a family of Micro controllers called the MCS-51.

AT89C51 is 8-bit micro controller, which has 4 KB on chip flash memory, which

is just sufficient for our application. The on-chip Flash ROM allows the program memory

to be reprogrammed in system or by conventional non-volatile memory Programmer.

Moreover ATMEL is the leader in flash technology in today’s market place and hence

using AT 89C51 is the optimal solution.

AT89C51 MICROCONTROLLER ARCHITECTURE

The 89C51 architecture consists of these specific features:

Eight –bit CPU with registers A (the accumulator) and B

Sixteen-bit program counter (PC) and data pointer (DPTR)

Eight- bit stack pointer (PSW)

Eight-bit stack pointer (Sp)

Internal ROM or EPROM (8751) of 0(8031) to 4K (89C51)

Internal RAM of 128 bytes:

Thirty –two input/output pins arranged as four 8-bit ports:p0-p3

Two 16-bit timer/counters: T0 and T1

Full duplex serial data receiver/transmitter: SBUF

Control registers: TCON, TMOD, SCON, PCON, IP, and IE

Two external and three internal interrupts sources.

Oscillator and clock circuits.

Fig 3: Functional block diagram of micro controller

Types of memory:

The 89C51 have three general types of memory. They are on-chip memory,

external Code memory and external Ram. On-Chip memory refers to physically existing

memory on the micro controller itself. External code memory is the code memory that

resides off chip. This is often in the form of an external EPROM. External RAM is the

Ram that resides off chip. This often is in the form of standard static RAM or flash

RAM.

a) Code memory

Code memory is the memory that holds the actual 89C51 programs that is to be

run. This memory is limited to 64K. Code memory may be found on-chip or off-chip. It

is possible to have 4K of code memory on-chip and 60K off chip memory

simultaneously. If only off-chip memory is available then there can be 64K of off chip

ROM. This is controlled by pin provided as EA.

b) Internal RAM

The 89C51 have a bank of 128 of internal RAM. The internal RAM is found on-

chip. So it is the fastest Ram available. And also it is most flexible in terms of reading

and writing. Internal Ram is volatile, so when 89C51 is reset, this memory is cleared. 128

bytes of internal memory are subdivided. The first 32 bytes are divided into 4 register

banks. Each bank contains 8 registers. Internal RAM also contains 128 bits, which are

addressed from 20h to 2Fh. These bits are bit addressed i.e. each individual bit of a byte

can be addressed by the user. They are numbered 00h to 7Fh. The user may make use of

these variables with commands such as SETB and CLR.

Flash memory is a nonvolatile memory using NOR technology, which allows the

user to electrically program and erase information. Flash memory is used in digital

cellular phones, digital cameras, LAN switches, PC Cards for notebook computers,

digital set-up boxes, embedded controllers, and other devices.

Fig 5: - Pin diagram of AT89C51

Pin Description:

VCC: Supply voltage.

GND: Ground.

Port 0:

Port 0 is an 8-bit open-drain bi-directional I/O port. As an output port, each pin

can sink eight TTL inputs. When 1sare written to port 0 pins, the pins can be used as high

impedance inputs. Port 0 may also be configured to be the multiplexed low order

address/data bus during accesses to external program and data memory. In this mode P0

has internal pull-ups. Port 0 also receives the code bytes during Flash programming, and

outputs the code bytes during program verification. External pull-ups are required during

program verification.

Port 1:

Port 1 is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-ups. The Port 1 output

buffers can sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are written to Port 1 pins they are

pulled high by the internal pull-ups and can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 1 pins that

are externally being pulled low will source current (IIL) because of the internal pull-ups.

Port 1 also receives the low-order address bytes during Flash programming and

verification.

Port 2:




are externally being pulled low will source current (IIL) because of the internal pull-ups.

Port 3:




are externally being pulled low will source current (IIL) because of the pull-ups.

Port 3 also serves the functions of various special features of the AT89C51 as listed

below:

Tab 6.2.1 Port pins and their alternate functions

RST:

Reset input. A high on this pin for two machine cycles while the oscillator is

running resets the device.

ALE/PROG:

Address Latch Enable output pulse for latching the low byte of the address during

accesses to external memory. This pin is also the program pulse input (PROG) during

Flash programming. In normal operation ALE is emitted at a constant rate of 1/6the

oscillator frequency, and may be used for external timing or clocking purposes. Note,

however, that one ALE pulse is skipped during each access to external Data Memory.

If desired, ALE operation can be disabled by setting bit 0 of SFR location 8EH. With the

bit set, ALE is active only during a MOVX or MOVC instruction. Otherwise, the pin is

weakly pulled high. Setting the ALE-disable bit has no effect if the micro controller is in

external execution mode.

PSEN:

Program Store Enable is the read strobe to external program memory. When the

AT89C51 is executing code from external program memory, PSEN is activated twice

each machine cycle, except that two PSEN activations are skipped during each access to

external data memory.

EA/VPP:

External Access Enable. EA must be strapped to GND in order to enable the

device to fetch code from external program memory locations starting at 0000H up to

FFFFH.

Note, however, that if lock bit 1 is programmed, EA will be internally latched on

reset. EA should be strapped to VCC for internal program executions. This pin also

receives the 12-volt programming enable voltage (VPP) during Flash programming, for

parts that require 12-volt VPP.

XTAL1:

Input to the inverting oscillator amplifier and input to the internal clock operating

circuit.

XTAL2:

Output from the inverting oscillator amplifier.

Oscillator Characteristics:

XTAL1 and XTAL2 are the input and output, respectively, of an inverting

amplifier, which can be configured for use as an on-chip oscillator, as shown in Figs 6.1

Either a quartz crystal or ceramic resonator may be used. To drive the device from an

external clock source, XTAL2 should be left unconnected while XTAL1 is driven as

shown in Figure 6.2. There are no requirements on the duty cycle of the external clock

signal, since the input to the internal clocking circuitry is through a divide-by-two flip-

flop, but minimum and maximum voltage high and low time specifications must be

observed.

Fig 6.1 Oscillator Connections Fig 6.2 External Clock Drive Configuration

REGISTERS:

In the CPU, registers are used to store information temporarily. That information

could be a byte of data to be processed, or an address pointing to the data to be fetched.

The vast majority of 8051 registers are 8–bit registers.

D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0

The most widely used registers of the 8051 are A(accumulator), B, R0, R1, R2,

R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, DPTR(data pointer), and PC(program counter). All of the above

registers are 8-bits, except DPTR and the program counter. The accumulator, register A,

is used for all arithmetic and logic instructions.

SFRs (Special Function Registers)

In the 8051, registers A, B, PSW and DPTR are part of the group of registers

commonly referred to as SFR (special function registers). The SFR can be accessed by

the names (which is much easier) or by their addresses. For example, register A has

address E0h, and register B has been ignited the address F0H, as shown in table.

The following two points should note about the SFR addresses.

1. The Special function registers have addresses between 80H and FFH. These

addresses are above 80H, since the addresses 00 to 7FH are addresses of RAM

memory inside the 8051.

2. Not all the address space of 80H to FFH is used by the SFR. The unused

locations 80H to FFH are reserved and must not be used by the 8051

programmer.

Table: 8051 Special function register Address

A Register (Accumulator):

This is a general-purpose register, which serves for storing intermediate results during

operating. A number (an operand) should be added to the accumulator prior to execute an

instruction upon it. Once an arithmetical operation is preformed by the ALU, the result is

placed into the accumulator

B Register

B register is used during multiply and divide operations which can be performed only

upon numbers stored in the A and B registers. All other instructions in the program can

use this register as a spare accumulator (A).

Registers (R0-R7)

Fig7: Memory organization of RAM

This is a common name for the total 8 general purpose registers (R0, R1, R2 ...R7). Even

they are not true SFRs, they deserve to be discussed here because of their purpose. The

bank is active when the R registers it includes are in use. Similar to the accumulator, they

are used for temporary storing variables and intermediate results. Which of the banks will

be active depends on two bits included in the PSW Register. These registers are stored in

four banks in the scope of RAM.

8051 Register Banks and Stack

RAM memory space allocation in the 8051

There are 128 bytes of RAM in the 8051. The 128 bytes of RAM inside the 8051

are assigned addresses 00 to7FH. These 128 bytes are divided into three different groups

as follows:

1. A total of 32 bytes from locations 00 to 1FH hex are set aside for register

banks and the stack.

2. A total of 16 bytes from locations 20 to 2FH hex are set aside for bit-

addressable read/write memory.

3. A total of 80 bytes from locations 30H to 7FH are used for read and write

storage, or what is normally called Scratch pad. These 80 locations of RAM

are widely used for the purpose of storing data and parameters nu 8051

programmers.

Default register bank

Register bank 0; that is, RAM locations 0, 1,2,3,4,5,6, and 7 are accessed with the

names R0, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, and R7 when programming the 8051.

FIG 8: RAM Allocation in the 8051

PSW Register (Program Status Word)

This is one of the most important SFRs. The Program Status Word (PSW) contains

several status bits that reflect the current state of the CPU. This register contains: Carry

bit, Auxiliary Carry, two register bank select bits, Overflow flag, parity bit, and user-

definable status flag. The ALU automatically changes some of register’s bits, which is

usually used in regulation of the program performing.

P - Parity bit. If a number in accumulator is even then this bit will be automatically set

(1), otherwise it will be cleared (0). It is mainly used during data transmission and

receiving via serial communication.

OV Overflow occurs when the result of arithmetical operation is greater than 255

(decimal), so that it cannot be stored in one register. In that case, this bit will be set (1). If

there is no overflow, this bit will be cleared (0).

RS0, RS1 - Register bank select bits. These two bits are used to select one of the four

register banks in RAM. By writing zeroes and ones to these bits, a group of registers R0-

R7 is stored in one of four banks in RAM.

RS1 RS2 Space in RAM

0 0 Bank0 00h-07h

0 1 Bank1 08h-0Fh

1 0 Bank2 10h-17h

1 1 Bank3 18h-1Fh

F0 - Flag 0. This is a general-purpose bit available to the user.

AC - Auxiliary Carry Flag is used for BCD operations only.

CY - Carry Flag is the (ninth) auxiliary bit used for all arithmetical operations and shift

instructions.

DPTR Register (Data Pointer)

These registers are not true ones because they do not physically exist. They consist of two

separate registers: DPH (Data Pointer High) and (Data Pointer Low). Their 16 bits are

used for external memory addressing. They may be handled as a 16-bit register or as two

independent 8-bit registers. Besides, the DPTR Register is usually used for storing data

and intermediate results, which have nothing to do with memory locations.

SP Register (Stack Pointer)

The stack is a section of RAM used by the CPU to store information temporily.

This information could be data or an address. The CPU needs this storage area since

there are only a limited number of registers.

How stacks are accessed in the 8051

If the stack is a section of RAM, there must be registers inside the CPU to point to

it. The register used to access the stack is called the SP (Stack point) Register. The stack

pointer in the 8051 is only 8 bits wide; which means that it can take values of 00 to FFH.

When the 8051 is powered up, the SP register contains value 07. This means that RAM

location 08 is the first location used for the stack by the 8051. The storing of a CPU

register in the stack is called a PUSH, and pulling the contents off the stack back into a

CPU register is called a POP. In other words, a register is pushed onto the stack to save it

and popped off the stack to retrieve it. The job of the SP is very critical when push and

pop actions are performed.

Program counter:

The important register in the 8051 is the PC (Program counter). The program

counter points to the address of the next instruction to be executed. As the CPU fetches

the opcode from the program ROM, the program counter is incremented to point to the

next instruction. The program counter in the 8051 is 16bits wide. This means that the

8051 can access program addresses 0000 to FFFFH, a total of 64k bytes of code.

However, not all members of the 8051 have the entire 64K bytes of on-chip ROM

installed, as we will see soon.

TIMERS

On-chip timing/counting facility has proved the capabilities of the micro

controller for implementing the real time application. These includes pulse counting,

frequency measurement, pulse width measurement, baud rate generation, etc,. Having

sufficient number of timer/counters may be a need in a certain design application. The

8051 has two timers/counters. They can be used either as timers to generate a time delay

or as counters to count events happening outside the micro controller.

TIMER 0 REGISTERS

The 16-bit register of Timer 0 is accessed as low byte and high byte. the low byte

register is called TL0(Timer 0 low byte)and the high byte register is referred to as

TH0(Timer 0 high byte).These register can be accessed like any other register, such as

A,B,R0,R1,R2,etc.

TIMER 1 REGISTERS

Timer 1 is also 16-bit register is split into two bytes, referred to as TL1 (Timer

1 low byte) and TH1 (Timer 1 high byte). These registers are accessible n the same way

as the register of Timer 0.

TMOD (timer mode) REGISTER

Both timers 0 and 1 use the same register, called TMOD, to set the various timer

operation modes. TMOD is an 8-bit register in which the lower 4 bits are set aside for

Timer 0 and the upper 4 bits for Timer 1.in each case; the lower 2 bits are used to set the

timer mode and the upper 2 bits to specify the operation.

GATE Gate control when set. The timer/counter is enabled only

while the INTx pin is high and the TRx control pin is

set. When cleared, the timer is enabled.

C/T Timer or counter selected cleared for timer operation

(Input from internal system clock).set for counter

operation (input TX input pin).

TLx each time it overflows.

C/T (clock/timer):

This bit in the TMOD register is used to decide whether the timer is used as a delay

generator or an event counter. If C/T=0, it is used as a timer for time delay generation.

The clock source for the time delay is the crystal frequency of the 8051.this section is

concerned with this choice. The timer’s use as an event counter is discussed in the next

section.

Serial Communication:

Serial data communication uses two methods, asynchronous and synchronous.

The synchronous method transfers a block of data at a time, while the asynchronous

method transfers a single byte at a time.

In data transmission if the data can be transmitted and received, it is a duplex

transmission. This is in contrast to simplex transmissions such as with printers, in which

the computer only sends data. Duplex transmissions can be half or full duplex,

depending on whether or not the data transfer can be simultaneous. If data is transmitted

one way at a time, it is referred to as half duplex. If the data can go both ways at the

same time, it is full duplex. Of course, full duplex requires two wire conductors for the

data lines, one for transmission and one for reception, in order to transfer and receive data

simultaneously.

Asynchronous serial communication and data framing

The data coming in at the receiving end of the data line in a serial data transfer is

all 0s and 1s; it is difficult to make sense of the data unless the sender and receiver agree

on a set of rules, a protocol, on how the data is packed, how many bits constitute a

character, and when the data begins and ends.

Start and stop bits

Asynchronous serial data communication is widely used for character-oriented

transmissions, while block-oriented data transfers use the synchronous method. In the

asynchronous method, each character is placed between start and stop bits. This is called

framing. In the data framing for asynchronous communications, the data, such as ASCII

characters, are packed between a start bit and a stop bit. The start bit is always one bit,

but the stop bit can be one or two bits. The start bit is always a 0 (low) and the stop bit

(s) is 1 (high).

Data transfer rate

The rate of data transfer in serial data communication is stated in bps (bits per

second). Another widely used terminology for bps is baud rate. However, the baud and

bps rates are not necessarily equal. This is due to the fact that baud rate is the modem

terminology and is defined as the number of signal changes per second. In modems a

single change of signal, sometimes transfers several bits of data. As far as the conductor

wire is concerned, the baud rate and bps are the same, and for this reason we use the bps

and baud interchangeably.

RS232 Standards

To allow compatibility among data communication equipment made by various

manufacturers, an interfacing standard called RS232 was set by the Electronics Industries

Association (EIA) in 1960. In 1963 it was modified and called RS232A. RS232B AND

RS232C were issued in 1965 and 1969, respectively. Today, RS232 is the most widely

used serial I/O interfacing standard. This standard is used in PCs and numerous types of

equipment. However, since the standard was set long before the advert of the TTL logic

family, its input and output voltage levels are not TTL compatible. In RS232, a 1 is

represented by -3 to -25V, while a 0 bit is +3 to +25V, making -3 to +3 undefined. For

this reason, to connect any RS232 to a micro controller system we must use voltage

converters such as MAX232 to convert the TTL logic levels to the RS232 voltage levels,

and vice versa. MAX232 IC chips are commonly referred to as line drivers.

RS232 pins

RS232 cable, commonly referred to as the DB-25 connector. In labeling, DB-25P

refers to the plug connector (male) and DB-25S is for the socket connector (female).

Since not all the pins are used in PC cables, IBM introduced the DB-9 Version of the

serial I/O standard, which uses 9 pins only, as shown in table.

7 Request to send (RTS)

8 Clear to send (CTS)

9 Ring indicator (RI)

Note: DCD, DSR, RTS and CTS are active low pins.

The method used by RS-232 for communication allows for a simple connection of three

lines: Tx, Rx, and Ground. The three essential signals for 2-way RS-232

Communications are these:

TXD: carries data from DTE to the DCE.

RXD: carries data from DCE to the DTE

SG: signal ground

8051 connection to RS232

The RS232 standard is not TTL compatible; therefore, it requires a line driver

such as the MAX232 chip to convert RS232 voltage levels to TTL levels, and vice versa.

The interfacing of 8051 with RS232 connectors via the MAX232 chip is the main topic.

The 8051 has two pins that are used specifically for transferring and receiving

data serially. These two pins are called TXD and RXD and a part of the port 3 group

(P3.0 and P3.1). pin 11 of the 8051 is assigned to TXD and pin 10 is designated as RXD.

These pins are TTL compatible; therefore, they require a line driver to make them RS232

compatible. One such line driver is the MAX232 chip.

Since the RS232 is not compatible with today’s microprocessors and

microcontrollers, we need a line driver (voltage converter) to convert the RS232’s signals

to TTL voltage levels that will be acceptable to the 8051’s TXD and RXD pins. One

example of such a converter is MAX232 from Maxim Corp. The MAX232 converts

from RS232 voltage levels to TTL voltage levels, and vice versa.

Fig 11: Interfacing of MAX-232 to controller

INTERRUPTS

A single micro controller can serve several devices. There are two ways to do that:

INTERRUPTS or POLLING.

INTERRUPTS vs POLLING:

The advantage of interrupts is that the micro controller can serve many devices (not

all the same time, of course); each device can get the attention of the micro controller

based on the priority assigned to it. The polling method cannot assign priority since it

checks all devices in round-robin fashion. More importantly, in the interrupt method the

micro controller can also ignore (mask) a device request for service. This is again not

possible with the polling method. The most important reason that the interrupt method is

preferable is that the polling method wastes much of the micro controller’s time by

polling devices that do not need service. So, in order to avoid tying down the micro

controller, interrupts are used.

INTERRUPT SERVICE ROUTINE

For every interrupt, there must be an interrupt service routine (ISR), or interrupt handler.

When an interrupt is invoked, the micro controller runs the interrupts service routine. For

every interrupt, there is a fixed location in memory that holds the address of its ISR. The

group of memory location set aside to hold the addresses of ISRs is called the interrupt

vector table. Shown below:

Interrupt Vector Table for the 8051:

Six Interrupts in the 8051:

In reality, only five interrupts are available to the user in the 8051, but many

manufacturers’ data sheets state that there are six interrupts since they include reset .the

six interrupts in the 8051 are allocated as above.

1. Reset. When the reset pin is activated, the 8051 jumps to address location

0000.this is the power-up reset.

2. Two interrupts are set aside for the timers: one for Timer 0 and one for Timer

1.Memory location 000BH and 001BH in the interrupt vector table belong to

Timer 0 and Timer 1, respectively.

3. Two interrupts are set aside for hardware external harder interrupts. Pin number

12(P3.2) and 13(P3.3) in port 3 is for the external hardware interrupts INT0 and

INT1, respectively. These external interrupts are also referred to as EX1 and

EX2.Memory location 0003H and 0013H in the interrupt vector table are assigned

to INT0 and INT1, respectively.

4. Serial communication has a single interrupt that belongs to both receive and

transmit. The interrupt vector table location 0023H belongs to this interrupt.

Power supply

The power supply are designed to convert high voltage

AC mains electricity to a suitable low voltage supply for electronics circuits and other

devices. A power supply can by broken down into a series of blocks, each of which

performs a particular function. A d.c power supply which maintains the output voltage

constant irrespective of a.c mains fluctuations or load variations is known as “Regulated

D.C Power Supply”

For example a 5V regulated power supply system as shown below:

A transformer is an electrical device which is used to convert electrical power from one

electrical circuit to another without change in frequency.

Transformers convert AC electricity from one voltage to another with little loss of

power. Transformers work only with AC and this is one of the reasons why mains

electricity is AC. Step-up transformers increase in output voltage, step-down

transformers decrease in output voltage. Most power supplies use a step-down

transformer to reduce the dangerously high mains voltage to a safer low voltage. The

input coil is called the primary and the output coil is called the secondary. There is no

electrical connection between the two coils; instead they are linked by an alternating

magnetic field created in the soft-iron core of the transformer. The two lines in the middle

of the circuit symbol represent the core. Transformers waste very little power so the

power out is (almost) equal to the power in. Note that as voltage is stepped down current

is stepped up. The ratio of the number of turns on each coil, called the turn’s ratio,

determines the ratio of the voltages. A step-down transformer has a large number of turns

on its primary (input) coil which is connected to the high voltage mains supply, and a

small number of turns on its secondary (output) coil to give a low output voltage.

Fig 23: An Electrical Transformer

Turns ratio = Vp/ VS = Np/NS

Power Out= Power In

VS X IS=VP X IP

Vp = primary (input) voltage

Np = number of turns on primary coil

Ip = primary (input) current

RECTIFIER: A circuit, which is used to convert a.c to dc, is known as RECTIFIER. The process of conversion a.c to d.c is called “rectification”

Full-wave Rectifier:

From the above comparisons we came to know that full wave bridge rectifier as more

advantages than the other two rectifiers. So, in our project we are using full wave bridge

rectifier circuit.

Bridge Rectifier: A bridge rectifier makes use of four diodes in a bridge arrangement to

achieve full-wave rectification. This is a widely used configuration, both with individual

diodes wired as shown and with single component bridges where the diode bridge is

wired internally.

A bridge rectifier makes use of four diodes in a bridge arrangement as shown in

fig(a) to achieve full-wave rectification. This is a widely used configuration, both with

individual diodes wired as shown and with single component bridges where the diode

bridge is wired internally.

During positive half cycle of secondary, the diodes D2 and D3 are in forward biased

while D1 and D4 are in reverse biased as shown in the fig(b). The current flow direction

is shown in the fig (b) with dotted arrows.

During negative half cycle of secondary voltage, the diodes D1 and D4 are in forward

direction is shown in the fig (c) with dotted arrows.

Fig(24.C)

Filter: A Filter is a device, which removes the a.c component of rectifier output

but allows the d.c component to reach the load.

Capacitor Filter:

We have seen that the ripple content in the rectified output of half wave rectifier is

121% or that of full-wave or bridge rectifier or bridge rectifier is 48% such high

percentages of ripples is not acceptable for most of the applications. Ripples can be

removed by one of the following methods of filtering:

(a) A capacitor, in parallel to the load, provides an easier by –pass for the ripples voltage

though it due to low impedance. At ripple frequency and leave the d.c.to appears the load.

(b) An inductor, in series with the load, prevents the passage of the ripple current (due to

high impedance at ripple frequency) while allowing the d.c (due to low resistance to d.c)

(c) various combinations of capacitor and inductor, such as L-section filter section

filter, multiple section filter etc. which make use of both the properties mentioned in (a)

and (b) above. Two cases of capacitor filter, one applied on half wave rectifier and

another with full wave rectifier.

Filtering is performed by a large value electrolytic capacitor connected across the

DC supply to act as a reservoir, supplying current to the output when the varying DC

voltage from the rectifier is falling. The capacitor charges quickly near the peak of the

varying DC, and then discharges as it supplies current to the output. Filtering

significantly increases the average DC voltage to almost the peak value (1.4 × RMS

value).

To calculate the value of capacitor(C),

C = ¼*√3*f*r*Rl

Where,

f = supply frequency,

r = ripple factor,

Rl = load resistance

Note: In our circuit we are using 1000microfarads.

Regulator:

Voltage regulator ICs is available with fixed (typically 5, 12 and 15V) or variable output

voltages. The maximum current they can pass also rates them. Negative voltage

regulators are available, mainly for use in dual supplies. Most regulators include some

automatic protection from excessive current ('overload protection') and overheating

('thermal protection'). Many of the fixed voltage regulator ICs have 3 leads and look like

power transistors, such as the 7805 +5V 1A regulator shown on the right. The LM7805 is

simple to use. You simply connect the positive lead of your unregulated DC power

supply (anything from 9VDC to 24VDC) to the Input pin, connect the negative lead to

the Common pin and then when you turn on the power, you get a 5 volt supply from the

output pin.

The Bay Linear LM78XX is integrated linear positive regulator with three

terminals. The LM78XX offer several fixed output voltages making them useful in wide

range of applications. When used as a zener diode/resistor combination replacement, the

RF Section

This section is basically used to transmit and receive the data wirelessly. The

devices used to do the same are RF Transmitter and RF Receiver.

RF transmitter:

RF transmitters are electronic devices that create continuously varying electric current,

encode sine waves, and broadcast radio waves. RF transmitters use oscillators to create

sine waves, the simplest and smoothest form of continuously varying waves, which

contain information such as audio and video. Modulators encode these sign wives and

antennas broadcast them as radio signals. There are several ways to encode or modulate

this information, including amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation (FM).

Radio techniques limit localized interference and noise. With direct sequence spread

spectrum, signals are spread over a large band by multiplexing the signal with a code or

signature that modulates each bit. With frequency hopping spread spectrum, signals move

through a narrow set of channels in a sequential, cyclical, and predetermined pattern.

Selecting RF transmitters requires an understanding of modulation methods

such as AM and FM. On-off key (OOK), the simplest form of modulation, consists of

turning the signal on or off. Amplitude modulation (AM) causes the baseband signal to

vary the amplitude or height of the carrier wave to create the desired information content.

Frequency modulation (FM) causes the instantaneous frequency of a sine wave carrier to

depart from the center frequency by an amount proportional to the instantaneous value of

the modulating signal. Amplitude shift key (ASK) transmits data by varying the

amplitude of the transmitted signal. Frequency shift key (FSK) is a digital modulation

scheme using two or more output frequencies. Phase shift key (PSK) is a digital

modulation scheme in which the phase of the transmitted signal is varied in accordance

with the base band data signal.

Additional considerations when selecting RF transmitters include supply

voltage, supply current, RF connectors, special features, and packaging. Some RF

transmitters include visual or audible alarms or LED indicators that signal operating

modes such as power on or reception. Other devices attach to coaxial cables or include a

connector or port to which an antenna can be attached. Typically, RF transmitters that are

rated for outdoor use feature a heavy-duty waterproof design. Devices with internal

calibration and a frequency range switch are also available.

RF transmitters are used in a variety of applications and industries. Often,

devices that are used with integrated circuits (ICs) incorporate surface mount technology

(SMT), Through Hole Technology (THT), and flat pack. In the telecommunications

industry, RF transmitters are designed to fit in a metal rack that can be installed in a

cabinet. RF transmitters are also used in radios and in electronic article surveillance

systems (EAS) found in retail stores. Inventory management systems use RF transmitters

as an alternative to barcodes.

for designing.

315/434 MHz ASK TRANSMITTER

Applications

*Wireless security systems

*Car Alarm systems

*Remote controls.

*Sensor reporting

*Automation systems

Here in this project the RF transmitter module is not directly connected to

microcontroller. An Encoder is connected between the RF module and the controller, in

order to encode the data for efficient transmission of the data.

RF Receiver:

RF receivers are electronic devices that separate radio signals from one another

and convert specific signals into audio, video, or data formats. RF receivers use an

antenna to receive transmitted radio signals and a tuner to separate a specific signal from

all of the other signals that the antenna receives. Detectors or demodulators then extract

information that was encoded before transmission. There are several ways to decode or

demodulate this information, including amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency

modulation (FM). Radio techniques limit localized interference and noise. With direct

sequence spread spectrum, signals are spread over a large band by multiplexing the signal

with a code or signature that modulates each bit. With frequency hopping spread

spectrum, signals move through a narrow set of channels in a sequential, cyclical, and

predetermined pattern.

Selecting RF receivers requires an understanding of modulation methods such

as AM and FM. On-off key (OOK), the simplest form of modulation, consists of turning

the signal on or off. Amplitude modulation (AM) causes the base band signal to vary the

amplitude or height of the carrier wave to create the desired information content.

Frequency modulation (FM) causes the instantaneous frequency of a sine wave carrier to

depart from the center frequency by an amount proportional to the instantaneous value of

the modulating signal. Amplitude shift key (ASK) transmits data by varying the

amplitude of the transmitted signal. Frequency shift key (FSK) is a digital modulation

scheme using two or more output frequencies. Phase shift key (PSK) is a digital

modulation scheme in which the phase of the transmitted signal is varied in accordance

with the base band data signal.

RF receivers vary in terms of performance specifications such as sensitivity,

digital sampling rate, measurement resolution, operating frequency, and communication

interface. Sensitivity is the minimum input signal required to produce a specified output

signal having a specified signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio. Digital sampling rate is the rate at

which samples can be drawn from a digital signal in kilo samples per second.

Measurement resolution is the minimum digital resolution, while operating frequency is

the range of received signals. Communication interface is the method used to output data

to computers. Parallel interfaces include general-purpose interface bus (GPIB), which is

also known as IEEE 488 and HPIB Protocol. Serial interfaces include universal serial bus

(USB), RS232, and RS485.

Additional considerations when selecting RF receivers include supply voltage,

supply current, receiver inputs, RF connectors, special features, and packaging. Some RF

receivers include visual or audible alarms or LED indicators that signal operating modes

such as power on or reception. Other devices attach to coaxial cables or include a

connector or port to which an antenna can be attached. Typically, RF receivers that are

rated for outdoor use feature a heavy-duty waterproof design. Devices with internal

calibration and a frequency range switch are also available.

microcontroller.

ENCODER and DECODER Sections

The Encoders are the devices which are used to encode the data where the

Decoder is the device which is quite opposite to the Encoder. The Encoder used in the

project are HT12E and Decoder is HT 12D.

HT 12E as RF encoder, HT 12D as RF decoder

The radio frequency spectrum is filled with noise and other signals, especially

those frequencies where unlicensed transmitter operation under FCC part 15 rules is

allowed. When using a wireless remote control system it is desirable to have a way of

filtering out or ignoring those unwanted signals to prevent false data from being received.

A simple way to accomplish this is to use an encoder IC at the transmitter and a

decoder IC at the receiver. The encoder generates serial codes that are automatically sent

three times and must be received at least twice before data is accepted as valid by the

decoder circuit and the information is being decoded using decoder circuitry.

HT12A/HT12E/212Series of Encoders

General Description:

The 2^12 encoders are a series of CMOS LSIs for remote control system

applications. They are capable of encoding information which consists of N address bits

and 12-N data bits. Each address/data input can be set to one of the two logic states. The

programmed addresses/data are transmitted together with the header bits via an RF or an

infrared transmission medium upon receipt of a trigger signal. The capability to select a

TE trigger on the HT12E or a DATA trigger on the HT12A further enhances the

application flexibility of the 212 series of encoders. The HT12A additionally provides a

38 kHz carrier for infrared systems.

HT12D/HT12F/212Series of Decoders

The 212decoders are a series of CMOS LSI’s for remote

control system applications. They are paired with Holtek’s 212series of encoders (refer to

the encoder/de-coder cross reference table). For proper operation, a pair of

encoder/decoder with the same number of ad-dresses and data format should be chosen.

The decoders receive serial addresses and data from a programmed 212series of encoders

that are transmitted by a carrier using an RF or an IR transmission medium. They

compare the serial input data three times continuously with their local addresses. If no

error or un-matched codes are found, the input data codes are decoded and then

transferred to the output pins. The VT pin also goes high to indicate a valid transmission.

The 212series of decoders are capable of decoding information that consist of N bits of

address and 12-Nbits of data. Of this series, the HT12D is arranged to pro-vide 8 address

bits and 4 data bits, and HT12F is used to decode 12 bits of address information.

LINEAR KEYPAD

This section basically consists of a Linear Keypad. Basically a Keypad can be classified

into 2 categories. One is Linear Keypad and the other is Matrix keypad.

1. Matrix Keypad.

2. Linear Keypad.

1. Matrix Keypad: This Keypad got keys arranged in the form of Rows and

Columns. That is why the name Matrix Keypad. According to this keypad, In

order to find the key being pressed the keypad need to be scanned by making

rows as i/p and columns as output or vice versa.

This Keypad is used in places where one needs to connect more

no. of keys with less no. of data lines.

2. Linear Keypad: This Keypad got ‘n’ no. of keys connected to ‘n’ data lines of

RF encoder.

This Keypad is used in places where one needs to connect less no.

of keys.

Generally, in Linear Keypads one end of the switch is connected to encoder

(Configured as i/p) and other end of the switch is connected to the common ground.

So whenever a key of Linear Keypad is pressed the logic on the microcontroller pin

will go LOW.

Here in this project, a linear keypad is used with switches connected in a serial

manner. Linear keypad is used in this project because it takes less no. of port pins. The

Linear Keypad with 4 Keys is shown below.

Liquid crystal display

Liquid crystal displays (LCDs) have materials, which combine the properties of

both liquids and crystals. Rather than having a melting point, they have a temperature

range within which the molecules are almost as mobile as they would be in a liquid, but

are grouped together in an ordered form similar to a crystal.

An LCD consists of two glass panels, with the liquid crystal material sand

witched in between them. The inner surface of the glass plates are coated with transparent

electrodes which define the character, symbols or patterns to be displayed polymeric

layers are present in between the electrodes and the liquid crystal, which makes the liquid

crystal molecules to maintain a defined orientation angle.

One each polarisers are pasted outside the two glass panels. These polarisers

would rotate the light rays passing through them to a definite angle, in a particular

direction.

When the LCD is in the off state, light rays are rotated by the two polarisers and

the liquid crystal, such that the light rays come out of the LCD without any orientation,

and hence the LCD appears transparent.

When sufficient voltage is applied to the electrodes, the liquid crystal molecules

would be aligned in a specific direction. The light rays passing through the LCD would

be rotated by the polarisers, which would result in activating/ highlighting the desired

characters.

The LCD’s are lightweight with only a few millimeters thickness. Since the

LCD’s consume less power, they are compatible with low power electronic circuits, and

can be powered for long durations.

The LCD’s don’t generate light and so light is needed to read the display. By

using backlighting, reading is possible in the dark. The LCD’s have long life and a wide

operating temperature range.

Changing the display size or the layout size is relatively simple which makes the

LCD’s more customers friendly.

The LCDs used exclusively in watches, calculators and measuring instruments are

the simple seven-segment displays, having a limited amount of numeric data. The recent

advances in technology have resulted in better legibility, more information displaying

capability and a wider temperature range. These have resulted in the LCDs being

extensively used in telecommunications and entertainment electronics. The LCDs have

even started replacing the cathode ray tubes (CRTs) used for the display of text and

graphics, and also in small TV applications.

This section describes the operation modes of LCD’s then describe how to

program and interface an LCD to 8051 using Assembly and C.

LCD operationIn recent years the LCD is finding widespread use replacing LEDs(seven-segment

LEDs or other multisegment LEDs).This is due to the following reasons:

1. The declining prices of LCDs.

2. The ability to display numbers, characters and graphics. This is in

contract to LEDs, which are limited to numbers and a few characters.

3. Incorporation of a refreshing controller into the LCD, there by

relieving the CPU of the task of refreshing the LCD. In the contrast,

the LED must be refreshed by the CPU to keep displaying the data.

4. Ease of programming for characters and graphics.

for data, make RS=1.Then send a high –to-low pulse to the E pin to enable the internal latch of the LCD.

IGNITION SWITCH

The term ignition switch is often used interchangeably to refer to two very different parts: the lock cylinder into which the key is inserted, and the electronic switch that sits just behind the lock cylinder. In some cars, these two parts are combined into one unit, but in other cars they remain separate. It is advisable to check your car's shop manual before attempting to purchase an ignition switch, to ensure that you buy the correct part.

In order to start a car, the engine must be turning. Therefore, in the days before ignition switches, car engines had to be turned with a crank on the front of the car in order to start them. The starter performs this same operation by turning the engine's flywheel, a large, flat disc with teeth on the outer edge. The starter has a gear that engages these teeth when it is powered, rapidly and briefly turning the flywheel, and thus the engine.

http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-flywheel.htm

The ignition switch generally has four positions: off, accessories, on, and start. Some cars have two off positions, off and lock; one turns off the car, and the other allows the key to be removed from the ignition. When the key is turned to the accessories position, certain accessories, such as the radio, are powered; however, accessories that use too much battery power, such as window motors, remain off in order to prevent the car's battery from being drained. The accessories position uses the least amount of battery power when the engine is not running, which is why drive-in movie theaters recommend that the car be left in the accessories mode during the movie.

The on position turns on all of the car's systems, including systems such as the fuel pump, because this is the position the ignition switch remains in while the car's engine is running. The start position is spring loaded so that the ignition switch will not remain there when the key is released. When the key is inserted into the ignition switch lock cylinder and turned to the start position, the starter engages; when the key is released, it returns to the on position, cutting power to the starter. This is because the engine runs at speeds that the starter cannot match, meaning that the starter gear must be retracted once the engine is running on its own.

Either the ignition switch or the lock cylinder may fail in a car, but both circumstances have very different symptoms. When the ignition switch fails, generally the electrical wiring or the plastic housing develops problems. The car may not turn on and/or start when this happens. Also, the spring-loaded start position could malfunction, in which case the starter will not engage unless the key is manually turned back to the on position.

When the lock cylinder malfunctions, however, the operation of the key itself will become problematic. If the tumblers become stripped, the lock cylinder may be able to turn with any key, or you may be able to remove the key when the car is on. If the tumblers begin to shift, the lock cylinder may not turn. Sometimes the key can be wiggled until the lock cylinder turns, but it is important to remember that this is only a temporary fix

MAX-232:

The MAX232 from Maxim was the first IC which in one package contains the necessary drivers (two) and receivers (also two), to adapt the RS-232 signal voltage levels to TTL logic. It became popular, because it just needs one voltage (+5V) and generates the necessary RS-232 voltage levels (approx. -10V and +10V) internally. This greatly simplified the design of circuitry. Circuitry designers no longer need to design and build a power supply with three voltages (e.g. -12V, +5V, and +12V), but could just provide one +5V power supply, e.g. with the help of a simple 78x05 voltage converter.

The MAX232 has a successor, the MAX232A. The ICs are almost identical, however, the MAX232A is much more often used (and easier to get) than the original MAX232, and the MAX232A only needs external capacitors 1/10th the capacity of what the original MAX232 needs.

http://www.maxim-ic.com/

http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-switch-lock.htm

http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-fuel-pump.htm

It should be noted that the MAX 232(A) is just a driver/receiver. It does not generate the necessary RS-232 sequence of marks and spaces with the right timing, it does not decode the RS-232 signal, it does not provide a serial/parallel conversion. All it does is to convert signal voltage levels. Generating serial data with the right timing and decoding serial data has to be done by additional circuitry, e.g. by a 16550 UART or one of these small micro controllers (e.g. Atmel AVR, Microchip PIC) getting more and more popular.

The MAX232 and MAX232A were once rather expensive ICs, but today they are cheap. It has also helped that many companies now produce clones (ie. Sipex). These clones sometimes need different external circuitry, e.g. the capacities of the external capacitors vary. It is recommended to check the data sheet of the particular manufacturer of an IC instead of relying on Maxim's original data sheet.

The original manufacturer (and now some clone manufacturers, too) offers a large series of similar ICs, with different numbers of receivers and drivers, voltages, built-in or external capacitors, etc. E.g. The MAX232 and MAX232A need external capacitors for the internal voltage pump, while the MAX233 has these capacitors built-in. The MAX233 is also between three and ten times more expensive in electronic shops than the MAX232A because of its internal capacitors. It is also more difficult to get the MAX233 than the garden variety MAX232A.

A Typical Application

The MAX 232(A) has two receivers (converts from RS-232 to TTL voltage levels) and two drivers (converts from TTL logic to RS-232 voltage levels). This means only two of the RS-232 signals can be converted in each direction. The old MC1488/1498 combo provided four drivers and receivers.

Typically a pair of a driver/receiver of the MAX232 is used for

TX and RX

And the second one for

CTS and RTS.

There are not enough drivers/receivers in the MAX232 to also connect the DTR, DSR, and DCD signals. Usually these signals can be omitted when e.g. communicating with a PC's serial interface. If the DTE really requires these signals either a second MAX232 is needed, or some other IC from the MAX232 family can be used (if it can be found in consumer electronic shops at all). An alternative for DTR/DSR is also given below.

Maxim's data sheet explains the MAX232 family in great detail, including the pin configuration and how to connect such an IC to external circuitry. This information can be used as-is in own design to get a working RS-232 interface. Maxim's data just misses

In addition one can directly wire DTR (DB9 pin 4) to DSR (DB9 pin 6) without going through any circuitry. This gives automatic (brain dead) DSR acknowledgment of an incoming DTR signal.

Sometimes pin 6 of the MAX232 is hard wired to DCD (DB9 pin 1). This is not recommended. Pin 6 is the raw output of the voltage pump and inverter for the -10V voltage. Drawing currents from the pin leads to a rapid breakdown of the voltage, and as a consequence to a breakdown of the output voltage of the two RS-232 drivers. It is better to use software which doesn't care about DCD, but does hardware-handshaking via CTS/RTS only.

The circuitry is completed by connecting five capacitors to the IC as it follows. The MAX232 needs 1.0µF capacitors, the MAX232A needs 0.1µF capacitors. MAX232 clones show similar differences. It is recommended to consult the corresponding data sheet. At least 16V capacitor types should be used. If electrolytic or tantalic capacitors are used, the polarity has to be observed. The first pin as listed in the following table is always where the plus pole of the capacitor should be connected to.

Description/ordering information

The MAX232 is a dual driver/receiver that includes a capacitive voltage generator to supply EIA-232 voltage levels from a single 5-V supply. Each receiver converts EIA-232 inputs to 5-V TTL/CMOS levels. These receivers have a typical threshold of 1.3 V and a typical hysteresis of 0.5 V, and can accept 30-V inputs. Each driver converts TTL/CMOS input levels into EIA-232 levels. The driver, receiver, and voltage-generator functions are available as cells in the Texas Instruments Lin ASIClibrary.

LIGHT EMITING DIODES

It is a semiconductor diode having radioactive recombination. It requires a definite

amount of energy to generate an electron-hole pair.

The same energy is released when an electron recombines with a hole. This released

energy may result in the emission of photon and such a recombination. Hear the amount

of energy released when the electro reverts from the conduction band to the valence band

appears in the form of radiation. Alternatively the released energy may result in a series

of phonons causing lattice vibration. Finally the released energy may be transferred to

another electron. The recombination radiation may be lie in the infra-red and visible light

spectrum. In forward is peaked around the band gap energy and the phenomenon is called

injection luminescence. I n a junction biased in the avalanche break down region , there

results a spectrum of photons carrying much higher energies . Almost White light then

gets emitted from micro-plasma breakdown region in silicon junction. Diodes having

radioactive recombination are termed as Light Emitting Diode, abbreviated as LEDs.

In gallium arsenide diode, recombination is predominantly a radiation

recombination and the probability of this radio active recombination far exceeds that in

either germanium or silicon . Hence Ga As LED has much higher efficiency in terms of

Photons emitted per carrier. The internal efficiency of Ga As LED may be very close to

100% but because of high index of refraction, only a small fraction of the internal

radiation can usually come out of the device surface. In spite of this low efficiency of

actually radiated light , these LEDs are efficiency used as light emitters in visual display

units and in optically coupled circuits, The efficiency of light generation increases with

the increase of injected current and with decreases in temperature. The light so

generated is concentrated near the junction since most of the charge carriers are obtained

within one diffusion length of the diode junction.

The following are the merits of LEDs over conventional incandescent and other types

of lamps

1. Low working voltages and currents

2. Less power consumption

3. Very fast action

4. Emission of monochromatic light

5. small size and weight

6. No effect of mechanical vibrations

7. Extremely long life

Typical LED uses a forward voltage of about 2V and current of 5 to 10mA.

GaAs LED produces infra-red light while red, green and orange lights are produced

by gallium arsenide phosphide (GaAs) and gallium phosphide(Gap) .

Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs)

Example: Circuit symbol:

Function

LEDs emit light when an electric current passes through them.

Connecting and soldering

LEDs must be connected the correct way round, the diagram may be labelled a or

+ for anode and k or - for cathode (yes, it really is k, not c, for cathode!). The cathode is

the short lead and there may be a slight flat on the body of round LEDs. If you can see

inside the LED the cathode is the larger electrode (but this is not an

official identification method).

LEDs can be damaged by heat when soldering, but the risk is small unless you are

very slow. No special precautions are needed for soldering most LEDs.

Testing an LED

Never connect an LED directly to a battery or power supply!

It will be destroyed almost instantly because too much current will pass through and burn

it out. LEDs must have a resistor in series to limit the current to a safe value, for quick

testing purposes a 1k resistor is suitable for most LEDs if your supply voltage is 12V or

less. Remember to connect the LED the correct way round!

Colors of LEDs

LEDs are available in red, orange, amber, yellow, green, blue and white. Blue and white

LEDs are much more expensive than the other colours.

The colour of an LED is determined by

the semiconductor material, not by the

colouring of the 'package' (the plastic

body). LEDs of all colours are available

in uncoloured packages which may be

diffused (milky) or clear (often described

as 'water clear'). The coloured packages are also available as diffused (the

standard(type)ortransparent.

The most popular type of tri-colour LED has a red and a green LED combined in

one package with three leads. They are called tri-colour because mixed red and green

light appears to be yellow and this is produced when both the red and green LEDs are

on.

The diagram shows the construction of a tri-colour LED. Note the different

lengths of the three leads. The centre lead (k) is the common cathode for both LEDs, the

outer leads (a1 and a2) are the anodes to the LEDs allowing each one to be lit

separately, or both together to give the third colour.

Bi-color LEDs

A bi- colour LED has two LEDs wired in 'inverse parallel' (one forwards, one backwards)

combined in one package with two leads. Only one of the LEDs can be lit at one time and

they are less useful than the tri-colour LEDs described above.

Sizes, Shapes and Viewing angles of LEDs

LEDs are available in a wide variety of sizes and shapes. The 'standard' LED has

a round cross-section of 5mm diameter and this is probably the best type for general use,

but 3mm round LEDs are also popular.

Round cross-section LEDs are frequently used and they are very easy to install on

boxes by drilling a hole of the LED diameter, adding a spot of glue will help to hold the

LED if necessary. LED clips are also available to secure LEDs in holes. Other cross-

section shapes include square, rectangular and triangular.

As well as a variety of colors, sizes and shapes, LEDs also vary in their viewing

angle. This tells you how much the beam of light spreads out. Standard LEDs have a

viewing angle of 60° but others have a narrow beam of 30° or less. Rapid Electronics

stock a wide selection of LEDs and their catalogue is a good guide to the range available.

Calculating an LED resistor value

An LED must have a resistor connected in series to limit the current through the

LED, otherwise it will burn out almost instantly.

The resistor value, R is given by

R = (VS - VL) / I

VS = supply voltage

VL = LED voltage (usually 2V, but 4V for blue and white LEDs)

I = LED current (e.g. 20mA), this must be less than the maximum permitted

If the calculated value is not available choose the nearest standard resistor value

which is greater, so that the current will be a little less than you chose. In fact you may

wish to choose a greater resistor value to reduce the current (to increase battery life for

example) but this will make the LED less bright.

Working out the LED resistor formula using Ohm's law

Ohm's law says that the resistance of the resistor, R = V/I,

where:

V = voltage across the resistor (= VS - VL in this case)

I = the current through the resistor

So R = (VS - VL) / I

Connecting LEDs in series

If you wish to have several LEDs on at the same time it may be possible to

connect them in series. This prolongs battery life by lighting several LEDs with the same

current as just one LED.

All the LEDs connected in series pass the same current so it is best if they are all

the same type. The power supply must have sufficient voltage to provide about 2V for

each LED (4V for blue and white) plus at least another 2V for the resistor. To work out a

value for the resistor you must add up all the LED voltages and use this for VL.

Avoid connecting LEDs in parallel

Connecting several LEDs in parallel with just one resistor shared between them is

generally not a good idea.

If the LEDs require slightly different voltages only the lowest voltage LED will

light and it may be destroyed by the larger current flowing through it. Although identical

LEDs can be successfully connected in parallel with one resistor this rarely offers any

useful benefit because resistors are very cheap and the current used is the same as

connecting the LEDs individually.

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION

ABOUT SOFTWARE

Software used:*Keil software for c programming

ABOUT KEIL SOFTWARE:

It is possible to create the source files in a text editor such as Notepad, run the Compiler on each C source file, specifying a list of controls, run the Assembler on each Assembler source file, specifying another list of controls, run either the Library Manager or Linker (again specifying a list of controls) and finally running the Object-HEX Converter to convert the Linker output file to an Intel Hex File. Once that has been completed the Hex File can be downloaded to the target hardware and debugged. Alternatively KEIL can be used to create source files; automatically compile, link and covert using options set with an easy to use user interface and finally simulate or perform debugging on the hardware with access to C variables and memory. Unless you have to use the tolls on the command line, the choice is clear. KEIL Greatly simplifies the process of creating and testing an embedded application.

Projects:

The user of KEIL centers on “projects”. A project is a list of all the source files required to build a single application, all the tool options which specify exactly how to build the application, and – if required – how the application should be simulated. A project contains enough information to take a set of source files and generate exactly the binary code required for the application. Because of the high degree of flexibility required from the tools, there are many options that can be set to configure the tools to operate in a specific manner. It would be tedious to have to set these options up every time the application is being built; therefore they are stored in a project file. Loading the project file into KEIL informs KEIL which source files are required, where they are, and how to configure the tools in the correct way. KEIL can then execute each tool with the correct options. It is also possible to create new projects in KEIL. Source files are added to the project and the tool options are set as required. The project can then be saved to preserve the settings. The project is reloaded and the simulator or debugger started, all the desired windows are opened. KEIL project files have the extension Simulator/Debugger:

The simulator/ debugger in KEIL can perform a very detailed simulation of a micro controller along with external signals. It is possible to view the precise execution time of a single assembly instruction, or a single line of C code, all the way up to the entire application, simply by entering the crystal frequency. A window can be opened for each peripheral on the device, showing the state of the peripheral. This enables quick trouble shooting of mis-configured peripherals. Breakpoints may be set on either assembly instructions or lines of C code, and execution may be stepped through one

instruction or C line at a time. The contents of all the memory areas may be viewed along with ability to find specific variables. In addition the registers may be viewed allowing a detailed view of what the microcontroller is doing at any point in time. The Keil Software 8051 development tools listed below are the programs you use to compile your C code, assemble your assembler source files, link your program together, create HEX files, and debug your target program. µVision2 for Windows™ Integrated Development Environment: combines Project Management, Source Code Editing, and Program Debugging in one powerful environment. C51 ANSI Optimizing C Cross Compiler: creates relocatable object modules from

your C source code, A51 Macro Assembler: creates relocatable object modules from your 8051

assembler source code, BL51 Linker/Locator: combines relocatable object modules created by the compiler

and assembler into the final absolute object module, LIB51 Library Manager: combines object modules into a library, which may be used

by the linker, OH51 Object-HEX Converter: creates Intel HEX files from absolute object modules.

What's New in µVision3?

µVision3 adds many new features to the Editor like Text Templates, Quick Function Navigation, and Syntax Coloring with brace high lighting Configuration Wizard for dialog based startup and debugger setup. µVision3 is fully compatible to µVision2 and can be used in parallel with µVision2.

What is µVision3?

µVision3 is an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) that helps you write, compile, and debug embedded programs. It encapsulates the following components:

A project manager. A make facility. Tool configuration. Editor. A powerful debugger.

To help you get started, several example programs (located in the \C51\Examples, \C251\Examples, \C166\Examples, and \ARM\...\Examples) are provided.

HELLO is a simple program that prints the string "Hello World" using the Serial Interface.

MEASURE is a data acquisition system for analog and digital systems. TRAFFIC is a traffic light controller with the RTX Tiny operating system. SIEVE is the SIEVE Benchmark. DHRY is the Dhrystone Benchmark. WHETS is the Single-Precision Whetstone Benchmark.

Additional example programs not listed here are provided for each device architecture.

Building an Application in µVision2

To build (compile, assemble, and link) an application in µVision2, you must:1. Select Project -(forexample,166\EXAMPLES\HELLO\HELLO.UV2).2. Select Project - Rebuild all target files or Build target.

µVision2 compiles, assembles, and links the files in your project

Creating Your Own Application in µVision2

To create a new project in µVision2, you must:1. Select Project - New Project.2. Select a directory and enter the name of the project file.3. Select Project - Select Device and select an 8051, 251, or C16x/ST10 device from

the Device Database™.4. Create source files to add to the project.5. Select Project - Targets, Groups, Files. Add/Files, select Source Group1, and add

the source files to the project.6. Select Project - Options and set the tool options. Note when you select the target

device from the Device Database™ all special options are set automatically. You typically only need to configure the memory map of your target hardware. Default memory model settings are optimal for most applications.

7. Select Project - Rebuild all target files or Build target.

Debugging an Application in µVision2

To debug an application created using µVision2, you must:1. Select Debug - Start/Stop Debug Session.2. Use the Step toolbar buttons to single-step through your program. You may enter

G, main in the Output Window to execute to the main C function.3. Open the Serial Window using the Serial #1 button on the toolbar.

Debug your program using standard options like Step, Go, Break, and so on.Starting µVision2 and Creating a ProjectµVision2 is a standard Windows application and started by clicking on the program icon. To create a new project file select from the µVision2 menuProject – New Project…. This opens a standard Windows dialog that asks youfor the new project file name.We suggest that you use a separate folder for each project. You can simply usethe icon Create New Folder in this dialog to get a new empty folder. Thenselect this folder and enter the file name for the new project, i.e. Project1.µVision2 creates a new project file with the name PROJECT1.UV2 which containsa default target and file group name. You can see these names in the ProjectWindow – Files.Now use from the menu Project – Select Device for Target and select a CPUfor your project. The Select Device dialog box shows the µVision2 devicedatabase. Just select the micro controller you use. We are using for our examples the Philips 80C51RD+ CPU. This selection sets necessary tooloptions for the 80C51RD+ device and simplifies in this way the tool Configuration Building Projects and Creating a HEX FilesTypical, the tool settings under Options – Target are all you need to start a newapplication. You may translate all source files and line the application with aclick on the Build Target toolbar icon. When you build an application withsyntax errors, µVision2 will display errors and warning messages in the OutputWindow – Build page. A double click on a message line opens the source fileon the correct location in a µVision2 editor window.

Once you have successfully generated your application you can start debugging.

After you have tested your application, it is required to create an Intel HEX file to download the software into an EPROM programmer or simulator. µVision2 creates HEX files with each build process when Create HEX files under Options for Target – Output is enabled. You may start your PROM programming utility after the make process when you specify the program under the option Run User Program #1.CPU Simulation:µVision2 simulates up to 16 Mbytes of memory from which areas can bemapped for read, write, or code execution access. The µVision2 simulator trapsand reports illegal memory accesses.In addition to memory mapping, the simulator also provides support for theIntegrated peripherals of the various 8051 derivatives. The on-chip peripheralsof the CPU you have selected are configured from the Device.Database selection:you have made when you create your project target. Refer to page 58 for moreInformation about selecting a device. You may select and display the on-chip peripheral components using the Debug menu. You can also change the aspects of each peripheral using the controls in the dialog boxes.Start Debugging:You start the debug mode of µVision2 with the Debug – Start/Stop DebugSession command. Depending on the Options for Target – DebugConfiguration, µVision2 will load the application program and run the startupcode µVision2 saves the editor screen layout and restores the screen layout of the last debug session. If the program execution stops, µVision2 opens aneditor window with the source text or shows CPU instructions in the disassembly window. The next executable statement is marked with a yellow arrow. During debugging, most editor features are still available. For example, you can use the find command or correct program errors. Program source text of your application is shown in the same windows. The µVision2 debug mode differs from the edit mode in the following aspects:_ The “Debug Menu and Debug Commands” described on page 28 areAvailable. The additional debug windows are discussed in the following._ The project structure or tool parameters cannot be modified. All buildCommands are disabled.

Disassembly WindowThe Disassembly window shows your target program as mixed source and assembly program or just assembly code. A trace history of previously executed instructions may be displayed with Debug – View Trace Records. To enable the trace history, set Debug – Enable/Disable Trace Recording. If you select the Disassembly Window as the active window all program step commands work on CPU instruction level rather than program source lines. You can select a text line and set or modify code breakpoints using toolbar buttons or the context menu commands.

You may use the dialog Debug – Inline Assembly… to modify the CPU instructions. That allows you to correct mistakes or to make temporary changes to the target program you are debugging.

Embedded C:

Data Types:

U people have already come across the word “Data types” in C- Language. Here

also the functionality and the meaning of the word is same except a small change in the

prefix of their labels. Now we will discuss some of the widely used data types for

embedded C- programming.

Data Types Size in Bits Data Range/Usage

unsigned char 8-bit 0-255

signed char 8-bit -128 to +127

unsigned int 16-bit 0 to 65535

signed int 16-bit -32,768 to +32,767

sbit 1-bit SFR bit addressable only

Bit 1-bit RAM bit addressable only

Sfr 8-bit RAM addresses 80-FFH

only

Unsigned char:

The unsigned char is an 8-bit data type that takes a value in the range of 0-255(00-

FFH). It is used in many situations, such as setting a counter value, where there is no

need for signed data we should use the unsigned char instead of the signed char.

Remember that C compilers use the signed char as the default if we do not put the key

word

Signed char:

The signed char is an 8-bit data type that uses the most significant bit (D7 of D7-

D0) to represent the – or + values. As a result, we have only 7 bits for the magnitude of

the signed number, giving us values from -128 to +127. In situations where + and – are

needed to represent a given quantity such as temperature, the use of the signed char data

type is a must.

Unsigned int:

The unsigned int is a 16-bit data type that takes a value in the range of 0 to 65535

(0000-FFFFH). It is also used to set counter values of more than 256. We must use the int

data type unless we have to. Since registers and memory are in 8-bit chunks, the misuse

of int variables will result in a larger hex file. To overcome this we can use the unsigned

char in place of unsigned int.

Signed int:

Signed int is a 16-bit data type that uses the most significant bit (D15 of D15-D0)

to represent the – or + value. As a result we have only 15 bits for the magnitude of the

number or values from -32,768 to +32,767.

Sbit (single bit):

The sbit data type is widely used and designed specifically to access single bit

addressable registers. It allows access to the single bits of the SFR registers.

RESULT:

Hence, by using this project way will be clearing the traffic signaling for VIP

vehicles in heavy traffic areas by using RF technology.
