LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 Introduction

A literature review is a body of text that aims to review the critical points of

current knowledge and or methodological approaches on a particular topic.

Literature reviews are secondary sources, and as such, do not report any new

or original experimental work.

Most often associated with academic-oriented literature, such as theses, a

literature review usually precedes a research proposal and results section. Its

ultimate goal is to bring the reader up to date with current literature on a topic

and forms the basis for another goal, such as future research that may be

needed in the area. A well-structured literature review is characterized by a

logical flow of ideas; current and relevant references with consistent,

appropriate referencing style; proper use of terminology and an unbiased and

comprehensive view of the previous research on the topic.

The report that we want to be produced needed a few factor that should be

taken consideration until that project implemented. To get a quality project

result, we need to study about the type of material, design , components that

we used, framework installation , installation method and maintenance ,level

of product safety, structural strength, project size and so on that we need

make it and consider the result that we get. This is all ensure that no any

4

problems would arise during the completion or even when presenting the

project.

Hence, systematic and detailed planning must be arranged for produce a

complete and perfect project. First step that we need made it, was design daub

(sketching) for get the real image of machine that we want to be produced.

Due to this, the work design and study that we made is a continuing process

and it involving problem solving activity creatively namely which is known

as literature study.

Microcontroller PIC16F877A is one of the PIC Micro Family microcontroller

which is popular at this moment, start from beginner until all professionals.

Because it is very easy using PIC16F877A and use FLASH memory

technology so that can be write-erase until thousand times. The superiority

this Risc Microcontroller compared to with other microcontroller 8-bit

especially at a speed of and his code compression. PIC16F877A have 40 pin

by 33 path of I/O.

PIC16F877A perfectly fits many uses, from automotive industries and

controlling home appliances to industrial instruments, remote sensors,

electrical door locks and safety devices. It is also ideal for smart cards as well

as for battery supplied devices because of its low consumption. EEPROM

memory makes it easier to apply microcontrollers to devices where

permanent storage of various parameters is needed (codes for transmitters,

motor speed, receiver frequencies, etc.). Low cost, low consumption, easy

handling and flexibility make PIC16F877A applicable even in areas where

microcontrollers had not previously been considered (example: timer

functions, interface replacement in larger systems, coprocessor applications,

etc.).In System Programmability of this chip (along with using only two pins

in data transfer) makes possible the flexibility of a product, after assembling

and testing have been completed. This capability can be used to create

assembly-line production, to store calibration data available only after final

testing, or it can be used to improve programs on finished product.

The pic is the smallest that other programming control that has

many types of input and output pin such as 16 pin to 40 pin.

Communication Capability:

A pic can read and program all the input that has to program

with it and easy to to program with any programmer and

software.

Faster Respond Time:

Pic are design for high-speed and real-time applications. It can

operate in real times, which mean that an even taking place in

the field will result in the execution of an operation or output.

2.4 LCD (4 x 20 Character)

Recently, a number of projects using intelligent Liquid Crystal Display

(LCD) modules have been featured in EPE. Their ability to display not just

numbers, but also letters, words and all manner of symbol, makes them a

good deal more versatile than the familiar 7-segment light emitting diode

(LED) display.

12

Figure 2.5: LCD (2 x 20 Characters)

2.4.1 Connections of LCD

Most LCD modules conform to a standard interface specification. A

14-pin access is provided (14 holes for solder pin insertion or for an

IDC connector) having eight data lines, three control lines and three

power lines. The connections are laid out in one of two common

configurations, either two rows of seven pins, or a single row of 14

pins. The two layout alternatives are displayed in figure 2.5.

Figure 2.6: Two Layout Alternatives

13

Table 2.4: Pin Outs Functions for All the LCD Types

Pins 1 and 2 are the power supply lines, Vss and Vdd .The Vdd pin

should be connected to the positive supply, and Vss to the 0V supply

or ground. Although the LCD module data sheet specify a 5V DC

supply (at only a few milliamps), supplies of 6V and 4.5 both work

well, and even 3V is sufficient for some modules. Consequently,

these modules can be effectively, and economically, powered by

batteries. Pin 3 is a control pin, Vee, which is used to alter the

contrast of the display. Ideally, this pin should be connected to a

variable voltage supply.

A preset potentiometer connected between the power supply lines,

with its wiper connected to the contrast pin is suitable in many

cases, but be aware that some modules may required a negative

potential; as low as 7V in some cases. For absolute simplicity,

connecting this pin to 0V will often suffice. Pin 4 is the Register

Select (RS) line, the first of the three command control inputs. When

this line is low, data bytes transferred to the display are treated as

commands, and data bytes read from the display indicate its status.

14

By setting the RS line high, character data can be transferred to and

from the module.

Pin 5 is the Read/ Write (R/W) line. This line is pulled low in order

to write commands or character data to the module, or pulled high to

read character data or status information from its registers.

Pin 6 is the Enable (E) line. This input is used to initiate the actual

transfer of commands or character data between the module and the

data lines. When writing to the display, data is transferred only on the

high to low transition of this signal. However, when reading from the

display, data will become available shortly after the low to high

transition and remain available until the signal falls low again.

Pins 7 to 14 are the eight data bus lines (D0 to D7). Data can be

transferred to and from the display, either as a single 8-bit byte or as

two 4-bit “nibbles”. In the latter case, only the upper four data lines

(D4 to D7) are used. This 4-bit mode is beneficial when using a

microcontroller, as fewer input/output lines are required.

2.5 Diode

In electronics a diode is a two-terminal electronic component which conducts

electric current asymmetrically or unidirectional; that is, it conducts current

more easily in one direction than in the opposite direction. The term usually

refers to a semiconductor diode, the most common type today, which is a

crystal of semiconductor connected to two electrical terminals, a P-N

junction. A vacuum tube diode, which was the first type of diode invented but

is now little used, is a vacuum tube with two electrodes; a plate and a cathode.

15

The most common function of a diode is to allow an electric current in one

direction (called the forward direction) while blocking current in the opposite

direction (the reverse direction). Thus, the diode can be thought of as an

electronic version of a check valve. This unidirectional behavior is called

rectification, and is used to convert alternating current to direct current, and

remove modulation from radio signals in radio receivers.

Figure 2.7: Diode

Figure 2.8: Diode Symbols

16

2.6 Crystal

A crystal is an electronic circuit that uses the mechanical resonance of a

vibrating crystal of piezoelectric material to create an electrical signal with a

very precise frequency.

This frequency is commonly used to keep track of time (as in quartz

wristwatches), to provide a stable clock signal for digital integrated circuits,

and to stabilize frequencies for radio transmitters and receivers. The most

common type of piezoelectric resonator used is the quartz crystal, so

oscillator circuits designed around them were called "crystal oscillators".

Standard frequency crystals - use these crystals to provide a clock input to our

microprocessor. Rated at 20pF capacitance and +/- 50ppm stability.

METHODOLOGY

3.1 Introduction

Methodology can be the ‘analysis of the principles of methods, rules, and

postulates employed by a discipline’, ‘the systematic study of methods that

are, can be, or have been applied within a discipline’ or ‘a particular

procedure or set of procedures’.

Methodology includes a philosophically coherent collection of theories,

concepts or ideas as they relate to a particular discipline or field of inquiry.

Methodology refers to more than a simple set of methods, rather it refers to

the rationale and the philosophical assumptions that underlie a particular

study relative to the scientific method. This is why scholarly literature often

includes a section on the methodology of the researchers.

Each step of project is a process to complete the project. Every step must be

followed one by one and must be done carefully. If some error occurs it can

make

a project probably could not operate or do not look neat and perfect.

Before the project finish, various process needs to be done according to

proper procedures to ensure that projects do not have any problems. Among

the measures the work done in preparing this project are:

3.3 Draw Schematic Diagram Of Water Recycle System Using Proteus

PROTEUS VSM 6.9 allows professional engineers to run interactive

simulations of real designs, and to reap the rewards of this approach to circuit

simulation. And then, a range of simulator models for popular micro-

controllers and a set of animated models for related peripheral devices such as

PIC and LCD displays, resistor, and more. It is possible to simulate complete

micro-controller systems and thus to develop the software for them without

access to a physical prototype. In a world where time to market is becoming

24

more and more important this is a real advantage. Structurally, Proteus 6

Professional separated into two main components, which are ISIS 6

Professional and ARES 6 Professional. ISIS 6 Professional mainly involved

on circuit designing and simulation. In our project we use Proteus to design a

schematic diagram.

Figure 3.1: ISIS 6 Professional User Interface

3.3.1 Simulate The Circuit Using Proteus

After completing the circuit assembly and configuration, now its time

to verify whether the source code compiled is virtually accurate or not.

Proteus offer a whole lot of variety virtual devices. In fact, simulation

using oscilloscope and function generator can be done using Proteus.

Even virtual hyperterminal is provided to demonstrate how your code

performs in real world without really doing the hardware section yet.

Figure 3.2 : Toolbar Of Proteus Simulation

25

3.4 Process Of The Circuit Designing

3.4.1 Design The Circuit Diagram

After decide what kind of project that we want to build. We need to

make a research about the circuit, electronic component that we need

to used, hardware and so on. These things actually can help us to

make a better in designing circuit. For example, we need to know the

size, foot of component, polarity of the component, the component

method compilation and etc to make a circuit diagram.

In the first step in Circuit Designing process is make a circuit diagram

that can be use in the next process. Among steps in the circuit diagram

are:-

i. Before the circuit is produced, the things that we need to be

emphasized are the position of symbols and components used in the

Schematic circuit. Once we know the entire production circuit, the

circuit can be drawn using special software, namely Proteus ISIS

Professional.

ii. Then, make sure that the connection of the component is correct.

26

Figure 3.3: Water Recycle System Circuit Diagram

3.5 Etching

Etching is a "subtractive" method used for the production of printed circuit

boards. Acid is used to remove unwanted copper from a prefabricated

laminate. This is done by applying a temporary mask that protects parts of the

laminate from the acid and leaves the desired copper layer

untouched. Etching is where the excess copper is removed to leave the

individual tracks or traces as they are sometimes called.   Buckets, bubble

tanks, and spray machines lots of different ways to etch, but most firms

currently use high pressure conveyerised spray equipment. Many different

chemical solutions can be used to etch circuit boards. Ranging from slow

controlled speed etches used for surface preparation to the faster etches used

for etching the tracks. Some are best used in horizontal spray process

equipment while others are best used in tanks.

27

3.5.1 Risk Of Etching

i. There is a risk of injuries due to the chemicals involved.

ii. The quality of the results depends on several factors which you

won't be able to master completely the first time. This can be

somewhat compensated by using good machinery. 

iii.There is the problem of waste disposal. Toxic chemicals require a

proper disposal service.

3.5.2 Safety

Since the work involves dangerous chemicals and power tools, we

will need to take the necessary safety precautions:

i. Wear safety equipment during the whole process - gloves,

protection glasses, and an apron

ii. Work near an emergency eyewash station, a first aid box and a

phone

iii.Familiarize yourself with the proper use of all equipment and tools

in the lab - if you are unsure of anything, ask a supervisor of the

project.

3.5.3 Etching Process

Etching is the process of using acid to remove coppers that not need

on the PCB (PRITED CIRCUIT BOARD). This acid is Acid Ferric

Chloride III. Acid Ferric Chloride III is used to remove that coppers.

The steps of the etching process are:

i. Print the schematic onto transparent paper and cut it with the

same size of PCB board.

28

Figure 3.4 Transparent Paper That Have Cut

ii. Stick the schematic diagram on PCB board.

iii. Paste the etching circuit onto transparent paper with UV Board

using expose machine. It’s to make PCB paper joined with

board.

iv. This process takes about 30 second.

Figure 3.5. UV Expose Process

v. Dilute the acid with a little hot water and make sure that the

mixture is not too liquid and too concentrated.

vi. Then, put the board into the mixed (Acid Ferric Chloride III +

Hot water) to remove the useless copper.

Figure 3.6: Process To Remove Unused Chopper

29

vii. When PCB was soaked into this mix, we must always shake

the container with the acid so that the unwanted copper will

remove.

viii. After Acid remove unused copper, take the PCB to wash with

clean water.

ix. Then, use sand paper to rub the lines colors. In addition,

detergent powder can also be used to remove the ink. Next,

just leave only the desired circuit PCB only.

3.6 Drilling Process

3.6.1 Material and Equipments :

Bench clamp or support

Dot punch or sharp tool

Drilling machine or hand drill

1mm bits

3.6.2 Introduction of Drilling Process

After the etching process finished, the PCB will be punched using hand

drilling machine. Hole is necessary to mount component (example:

resistor, capacitor, inductor, tip 122, crystal, PIC base and etc). Before

drilling, a dot punch is used to mark the hole position. This serves as a

shallow guide for the drill bit to align easily while drilling. Any other

sharp pointed tool can be use to do the marking. Points/eye drill used

must be appropriate to the hole to be punched between 0.75 to 1.0 mm.

The purpose of this process is to facilitate the installation work on the

circuit components of the PCB. During drilling, do not be pressed too

strong because it may cause eye drill broken up and dangerous for the

30

people around. Hold the drill steady and drill in straight slowly. The

hole will be drilled with little force applied.

3.7 Insert the Component

Foot of component was inserted into the drilled hole that has been completed.

It is easier if started with the low component first. Components that are

installed must be inspected prior to use multimeter to find out whether these

components are in good condition or not. This process is quite important

because we should insert the component correctly to avoid from circuit

failure. Besides, some components have their own pole like diode, capacitor

and other else. After finished the inserting process, we check it once again

with the schematic to make sure all the component were at the position or

holes.

3.8 Soldering Process

Soldering is defined as "the joining of metals by a fusion of alloys which

have relatively low melting points". In other words, we use a metal that

has a low melting point to adhere the surfaces to be soldered together.

Soldering is more like gluing with molten metal than anything else.

Soldering is also a must have skill for all sorts of electrical and electronics

work. It is also a skill that must be taught correctly and developed with

practice.

Steps to Solder :

i. Quickly remove the tip of the soldering iron from Heat up the

soldering iron for five to 10 minutes, allowing the iron to reach

maximum operating temperature. If the soldering iron has two

31

temperature settings selectable with a switch, select lower temperature

when soldering small electronic components to a board and select the

higher temperature when soldering heavier wires. Apply a small

amount of solder to the tip and rotate so the entire tip becomes lightly

covered with a thin layer of solder. This is called "tinning" the tip.

ii. Connect the two surfaces to be soldered together so the metal parts are

touching. If soldering wires, simply twist the two wire ends together

so they don't pull apart while being soldered. If soldering electronic

components, simply seat the component wires into the holes of the

circuit board where the component is to be placed.

iii. Touch the hot tip of the soldering iron to all metal parts touching

together so they are evenly heated. Allow the surface to heat for just

three to five seconds, then touch the tip of the solder to the heated

metal objects, not directly to the tip of the soldering iron. Allow a

small amount of solder to flow onto the metal components or wires

until just enough solder has been applied to cover the entire surface of

the wires or components.

iv. the soldered surface and wipe the tip of the iron on a wet sponge

immediately to remove solder. Wiping the solder off the tip will

prevent it from burning and forming a black coat on the soldering iron

tip.

v. Allow the solder joint to cool for several minutes before applying

power to the wires or the device soldered.

32

3.9 Circuit Testing

For testing and improvement process, we took almost four weeks to make it

work. In the calendar project activities, we were given four weeks to settle all

the testing and improvement process. The purpose of testing the electric was

to determined and located any of the following conditions :

1) An open circuit

2) A short circuit with another conductor in the same circuit.

3) A ground, which is a short circuit between the conductor and

circuit.

4) Leakage ( a high resistance path across a portion of the circuit, to

another circuit, or to ground ).

5) A cross ( a short circuit or leakage between conductors of different

circuit )

As a first step, we have done the short circuit testing using an analog

multimeter. Before used the multimeter, we set up the multimeter to zero. To

pointer the meter exactly on the zero line, we rotate the adjusting screw, Then

we connect the multimeter probes to the circuit being tested. After that, we

observed the meter needle movement. Luckily the needle does not move, this

means circuit was not short.

Then we move on the second step, which is testing an open circuit. Open circuit

test, sometimes called no – load test, is one of the method in electrical

engineering order to determine a break exists in a complete conducting

pathway. Open circuit can cause by excessive current. Again, multimeter was

used to check

whether the circuits are open or in normal condition. We only gave the required

current to the circuit, so we did not face an open circuit problem. This mean our

circuits were in normal condition.

33

3.10 Troubleshooting

The most problem like the fault soldering. Check all the soldering joint

suspicious. If you discover the short track or the short soldering joint, re-

solder at that point and check other the soldering joint. Check the position of

all component on the PCB. See that there are no components missing or

inserted in the wrong places. Make sure that all the polarised components

have been soldered the right way round.

3.11 Project Designation

3.11.1 Research and Analysis Project

Research is important to ensure the project that is yet to progress can

have a good start so that it would not cost any problem during the

project development. So, the vital information such as the circuit, the

component usage ,the commercial needs and much are indeed

important . It is as the circuit, ensure the can understand more on how

important is the project. The source can be obtained from lectures,

books and also internet.

3.11.2 The Project Reformation

We must read and understand all data that we have. Data and

information have to be compiled and all information we had got had to

be arranged systematically for progress. From time all information and

data must to upgrade for information and follow the project’s

progression.

34

3.11.3 Session Discussion and Problem Settle

Discussion session were held every week to discuss the project

development. All the problem are discussed so that it can be solved

quickly. Problem that can’t be handled were too addressed quickly to

the project supervisor. To make the project difficult everything that is

going to be done must be planned properly (proper planning). This can

ensure the project flow is smooth without any interruptions.

PIC16F877A is a small piece of semiconductor integrated circuits. The

package type of this integrated circuits is DIP package. DIP stand for Dual

Inline Package for semiconductor IC. This package is very easy to be

35

soldered onto the strip board. However using a DIP socket is much more

easier so that this chip can be plugged and removed from the development

board. PIC16F877A is very cheap. Apart from that it is also very easy to be

assembled. Additional components that you need to make this IC work is just

a 5V power supply adapter, a 20MHz crystal oscillator and 2 units of 22pF

capacitors. The advantage of this IC can be reprogrammed and erased up to

10,000 times. Therefore it is very good for new product development phase.

CHAPTER 4

FINDING AND ANALYZING

4.1 Introduction

Finding and analyzing is a research to get the information about the project.

In this chapter we will discusses on the result, findings and the assessment

from the analysis conducted in this project.

After the development of the Water Recycle System, this project will be

analyzed to measure the effectiveness and to ensure the objectives of the

project successfully achieved. Throughout the analysis stage, strengths and

weakness of the Water Recycle System were identified.

Generally, there are three aspects stressed in the analysis, which are the

behavior, ability and sensitivities of the Water Recycle System.

4.2 Water Recycle System

This Water Recycle System runs off of using 12VDC plug in of power

supply. It communicates with the PIC16F877A, simplifying development.

This particular Water Recycle System use a copper plate sensor that will

transmit signal to these system to operate. We use IC LM 324 as a receiver

and as a transmitter for Water Recycle System. A water pump 12VAC used to

control and pump water from the tank.

56

In order to accomplish its designated purpose the system must meet the

following requirements:

Physical

I.It should be lighter.

II.Must be able to have microcontroller, battery(s), pump, sensors, and

other electronics mounted on it.

Electronics

I.Must be able to execute or solving commands.

II.Must process input from several devices (sensors, switches/buttons)

III.Must communicate with sensor

IV.Must output control signals to pump

Feedback/Sensors

I.Must be able to detect a presence of water.

4.2.1 The Behavior Of Water Recycle System

The first step in the analysis process is to identify the character and

functionality of the Water Recycle System. Analysis were conducted

based on the objectives of the project that have been created last

semester which is the ability to detect the presence of water, This

system will also have overrides that can be received from the base

station or from onboard switches and executed.

57

Figure 4.0: Pump Controller

Pump controller is used to manage the use of water from the main

tank in a day. The uses is depends on the individual, example he

wanted to use the water three times in the day, he just need to set the

time at the pump controller.

How to use pump controller:

i. Press ‘SET’ button to set time in 24 Hour.

Figure 4.1: Pump Controller Setting

58

Use ‘HOUR’ button and ‘MINUTE’ button to adjust the time of

water uses.

ii. Press ‘ENTER’ button after set the first uses to set the next uses.

Figure 4.2: Second Step Pump Controller Setting

4.2.2 The Water Recycle System Abilities

Once the system characteristics have been identified, the next step is

the analysis for identification of strengths and weakness of this system

when it’s have been complete build. This system is tested by . From

this experiment conducted, this system will not allow the water level

in the main tank is dry, because the height of the water level will be

controlled by a sensor

59

4.2.3 Project’s evaluation

4.2.3.1 Problem in the Project

Through out the development of the Water Recycle System,

some problem and obstacles are encountered involving

software, hardware and mechanical parts the problems are

summarized.

Many problems that occur when we build this Water Recycle

System. There are:

I. Water pump don’t have any respond.

II. When want to choose the types of programming

language.

III. The display panel do not function properly.

IV. When we want to design of the Water Recycle System.

V. System stuck when pump running.

60

4.2.3.2 Way to Solve the Problem

i. Water pump don’t have any respond.

This water pump is operating at a high rate of current

flow. Either way, the motors provide plenty of power to

drive any small component. Caused by the overall state

of the problem, this system will be interrupted called

distortion. To solve the problem, a capacitor 104

(0.1uF) was placed between the positive terminal and

negative terminal of water pump. This aims to reduce

the distortion that occurs and the smooth flow of

current. Because this problem can be solved some other

problems also completed example system stuck when

pump running and the display panel do not function

properly.

61

Figure 4.5: Capacitor 104 (0.1uF)

ii. Programming Language

It took a long time to choose the suitable programming

language either PIC Basic programming or assembly

language or C++ programmer. After some

consideration took place, the PIC BASIC is chosen to

program this project. PIC instruction set is limited.

CHAPTER 5

DISCUSSION

5.1 Introduction

After a long time to complete our final project, finally we have successfully

completed the project Water Recycle System followed by the schedule of

Semester 6.

All plans that have completely done with difficult and trouble what we get

during do this project. But we still patient and give full commitment to do this

project. After finding an idea to another idea of project suggestion, all the

process has done with full-commitment. For the results, full of the project of

water recycle system done successfully.

5.2 Problem Of Material

In our project we decided our project chasing must in lightweight, this is

because it’s easy to carry over to anywhere. So we having a problem to

choose what kind of material that we need to use in our project. Solution to

this problem is that we have select plastic casings that have outstanding

shrink ability for a smooth-surfaced, tight finish and are available in a wide

range of standard colors and sizes. From stuffing to the finished package, the

multi-layered construction makes them an excellent choice for all types of

applications.

65

Figure 5.0: Plastic Casings

5.3 Problem To Wiring And Programming

The problem that we faced is to create wiring and programming that include

water pump and PIC controller because we never done it before. After we

have learned and research, finally we find the way to create the wiring with

cooperation of Electrical Department Lecture and senior.

66

CHAPTER 6

CONCLUSION

6.1 Introduction

We can conclude that this project had fulfilled and achieve our objective and

this project operated in good condition. We also learn how the hardware and

software will communicate each other. Beside that, we learn how to wiring,

how to create a program, and other hardware component.

6.2 Conclusion

This chapter will explain about conclusion and suggestion based on analyzing

and discussion chapters. We make conclusion after make some research about

our objective of creating this project. Otherwise, suggestion is about an

improvement that we had done to our project.

This final project is one of the subjects in our Diploma, we need to take this

subject to our diploma. This subject is very important to the polytechnic

student to train the student how to handle a project and how to cooperate each

others to implement this project. This will help the student can working well

or good performance in the future when they go out to the industry. For this

semester, we already done a part of our project, we already learn many thing

from beginning until now. For our experience in this few months, we think

67

that the most important thing in this project is the cooperation between the

project partner and the communication with the project supervisor.

We gained a lot of practical experience. We learned how to take ideas and

knowledge and apply them to solve problems and design real world

applications. We learned a lot about circuit design, project design, testing,

and assembly part. We also learned about working as a team, working around

people's schedules, communicating with each other, and other practical social

work skills. In addition we can see how actually software, PIC communicate

with the hardware that before this we just do practically in Polytechnic

laboratory.

This is most important experience to us. Therefore, we admit that our project

still have many weakness that must to improve. In the future, we hope us or

some one else can make the improvement to our project.

We also believe a word of thanks is due at this time. We would like to first of

all thank to our advisor and supervisor Mrs Rosmani Bt Ramli who has been

a big help to us during the whole year. Also we would like to thank to our

friends that for help and encouragement non-stop to us. Thank you very much

for all.
