BLOCK DIAGRAM
PIC Microcontroller

 PIC is a family of modified Harvard architecture microcontrollers made by


Microchip Technology
 The PIC initially referred to “peripheral interface controller”.
 High –performance RISC CPU.
 Only 35 Signal word instructions to learn.

Operating Speed:
 0– 20 MHz Clock input.
 0 – 200ns instruction cycle
 Timer: 8-bit timer/counter with 8-bit pre scalar.
 Timer1: 16-bit timer /counter with pre scalar can be incremented during
sleep via external crystal /clock.
 Timer2: 8-bit timer/counter with 8 bit period register, prescaler and
postscaler.
 10-bit multi-channel analog-to-digital converter.

GMS Module
 SMS is an area where the modem can be used to provide features like:
 These SMS can be transmitted on certain trigger events in an automation
system
 SMS can also be used in areas where small text information has to be sent.
 The transmitter can be an automation system or machines like vending
machines, collection machines or applications like positioning systems
where the navigator keeps on sending SMS at particular time intervals
 SMS can be a solution where GSM data call or GPRS services are not
available.

TEMPERATURE SENSORS

The LM35 series are precision integrated-circuit temperature devices with an


output voltage linearly- proportional to the Centigrade temperature. The LM35 device
has an advantage over linear temperature sensors calibrated in Kelvin, as the user is
not required to subtract a large constant voltage from the output to obtain convenient
Centigrade scaling.

LIGHT DEPENDENT RESISTOR SENSORS


A Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) or a photo resistor is a device whose
resistivity is a function of the incident electromagnetic radiation. Hence, they are
light sensitive devices.
They are also called as photo conductors, photo conductive cells or simply
photocells. They are made up of semiconductor materials having high resistance.
There are many different symbols used to indicate a LDR, one of the most
commonly used symbol is shown in the figure below. The arrow indicates light
falling on it.

INTERFACING LCD TO THE MICROCONTROLLER


This is the first interfacing example for the parallel port. We will star with
something simple. This example does not use the Bi-directional feature found on
newer ports, thus it should work with most, if not all Parallel Ports.
It however does not show the use of the status port as an input. So what
are we interfacing? A 16 Character, 2 Line LCD Modules to the Parallel Port. These
LCD Modules are very common these days, and are quite simple to work with, as
all the logic required running them is on board.

FEATURES
 Interface with either 4-bit or 8-bit microprocessor.
 8 different users programmed 5 X 7 dot-matrix patterns.
 Display data RAM and character generator RAM may be
 Accessed by the microprocessor.
 Clear Display, Cursor Home, Display ON/OFF, Cursor
 ON/OFF, Blink Character, Cursor Shift, Display Shift.
 Built-in reset circuit is triggered at power ON.

POWER SUPPLY:
A power supply is an electronic device that supplies electric energy to an
electrical load. The primary function of a power supply is to convert one form of
electrical energy to another.

 Transformer:
Steps down high voltage AC mains to low voltage AC.

 Rectifier:
. A rectifier is used to convert the transformer output voltage to a varying DC
voltage.

 Filters:
An electronic filter to convert it to an unregulated DC voltage. The filter removes
most, but not all of the AC voltage variations; the remaining voltage variations are
known as ripple.

 Regulator:
The function of a linear voltage regulator is to convert a varying DC voltage to a
constant, often specific, lower DC voltage. In addition, they often provide a current
limiting function to protect the power supply and load from over current (excessive,
potentially destructive current).
