    Microcontroller is the decision making device, it works on two logic 0 and 1.Microcontroller is similar to the microprocessor but the basic difference

    between two is the inbuilt memory in the controller which make it a cheap IC

    costs about Rs 50 where as the cost of the processor is about Rs 400.

    This heart of this project is ATMEL microcontroller and the controlleravailable in the market has to be used so we have used 89C2051, 20 pin

    controller according to the requirement.

    Since automation is the need of hour, technology is enhancing and hence wehavedesigned a system for electricity saving of the street lights on the highway.This system shows the advancement in technology as well as it also savesthe energy.

    The aim of the project is to design such system through which we can save the electricity of the

    street light on the highways using the microcontroller.

    This project presenting the working of the power saving street light which make itself

    turn on and off as per requirement. Different sensors has been used here for sensing

    whether any vehicle is on the track or not, or any person is on pedestrian or

    not ,by making use of microcontroller it automatically turn on and off the street light.

    Now as our objective is to save the electricity we have used LDRs to sense the light. There are

    three LDRs used in our project, two for detection of light from the vehicle as soon as the vehicle

    comes near to the street light poles the corresponding Led will glow and also there is an LDR forsensing the Day and night mode if it is daytime then the LEDs will remain off.

    Now the question arises what about the pedestrian so there are pressure sensor switches which

    will get press as soon as any passerby passes through the road.

    The ac voltage 120v rms is connected to a transformer which steps that ac

    voltage down to the level for the desired dc output. A diode rectifier then

    provides a full wave rectified voltage that is initially filtered by a simple

    capacitor filter to produce a dc voltage. This resulting dc voltage has some

    ripple or ac voltage variation. A regulator circuit can use this dc input to

    provide a dc voltage that not only has much less ripple voltage but also

    remains the same dc value even if the input dc voltage varies somewhat or

    the load connected to the output dc voltage changes.

    The output voltage of a filter circuit has dc level and the rms value of the

    output voltage.

    RIPPLE = [ripple voltage(rms)] / [dc voltage]

    = (Vr(rms)/Vdc

    Diagram of power supply:

    Fig. 2.3.1

    Consists of:

    1. RLMT Connector--- It is a connector used to connect the step downtransformer to the bridge rectifier.

    2. Bridge Rectifier --- It is a full wave rectifier used to convert ac intodc , 9-15v ac made by transformer is converted into dc with the help ofrectifier.

    3. Capacitor: -----It is an electrolytic capacitor of rating 1000M/35Vused to remove the ripples. Capacitor is the component used to passthe ac and block the dc.

    4. Regulator: ----LM7805 is used to give a fixed 5v regulated supply.

    5. Capacitor: -----It is again an electrolytic capacitor 10M/65v used forfiltering to give pure dc.

    6. Capacitor: ----- It is a ceramic capacitor used to remove the spikesgenerated when frequency is high (spikes).

    So the output of supply section is 5v regulated dc.

    A photoresistor orlight dependent resistor orcadmium sulfide (CdS) cell is a resistorwhose

    resistance decreases with increasing incident light intensity. It can also be referenced as a

    photoconductor.

    A photoresistor is made of a high resistance semiconductor. If light falling on the device is of

    high enough frequency, photons absorbed by the semiconductor give bound electrons enough

    energy to jump into the conduction band. The resulting free electron (and its hole partner)

    conduct electricity, thereby lowering resistance.

    A photoelectric device can be either intrinsic or extrinsic. An intrinsic semiconductor has its own

    charge carriers and is not an efficient semiconductor, e.g. silicon. In intrinsic devices the only

    available electrons are in the valence band, and hence the photon must have enough energy to

    excite the electron across the entire bandgap. Extrinsic devices have impurities, also called

    dopants, added whose ground state energy is closer to the conduction band; since the electrons

    do not have as far to jump, lower energy photons (i.e., longer wavelengths and lower

    frequencies) are sufficient to trigger the device. If a sample of silicon has some of its atoms

    replaced by phosphorus atoms (impurities), there will be extra electrons available for conduction.

    This is an example of an extrinsic semiconductor.

    Applications

    Photoresistors come in many different types. Inexpensive cadmium sulfide cells can be found in

    many consumer items such as camera light meters, street lights, clock radios, alarms, and

    outdoor clocks.

    They are also used in some dynamic compressors together with a small incandescent lamp or

    light emitting diode to control gain reduction.

    Description

    TheAT89C2051 is low-voltage; high-performance CMOS 8-bit microcomputer with2K bytes of

    Flash programmable and erasable read only memory (PEROM). The device is manufactured

    using Atmels high-density nonvolatile memory technology and is compatible with the industry-

    standard MCS-51 instruction set. By combining versatile 8-bit CPU with Flash on a monolithic

    chip, the Atmel AT89C2051 is a powerful microcomputer, which provides a highly flexible and

    cost-effective solution to many embedded control applications.

    The AT89C2051 provides the following standard features: 2K bytes of Flash, 128bytes of RAM,

    15 I/O lines, two 16-bit timer/counters, a five vector two-level interrupt architecture, a full

    duplex serial port, a precision analog comparator, on-chip oscillator and clock circuitry. In

    addition, the AT89C2051 is designed with static logic for operation down to zero frequency and

    supports two software selectable power saving modes. The Idle Mode stops the CPU while

    allowing the RAM, timer/counters, serial port and interrupt system to continue functioning. The

    power-down mode saves the RAM contents but freezes the oscillator disabling all other chip

    functions until the next hardware reset.

    Fig. 4.1.1 Pin Description

    VCC: Supply voltage

    GND: Ground

    Port 1:

    Port 1 is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port. Port pins P1.2 toP1.7 provides internal pull-ups. P1.0

    and P1.1 require external pull-ups. P1.0 and P1.1 also serve as the positive input (AIN0) and the

    negative input (AIN1), respectively, of the on-chip precision analog comparator. The Port 1

    output buffers can sink 20 m A and can drive LED displays directly. When 1s are written to Port

    1 pins, they can be used as inputs. When pins P1.2 to P1.7 are used as inputs and are externally

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    25/79

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    pulled low, they will source current (IIL) because of the internal pull-ups. Port 1 also receives

    code data during Flash programming and verification.

    Port 3:

    Port 3 pins P3.0 to P3.5, P3.7 are seven bi-directional I/O pins with internal pull-ups. P3.6 is

    hard-wired as an input to the output of the on-chip comparator and is not accessible as a general

    purpose I/O pin. The Port 3 output buffers can sink 20 MA. When 1s are written to Port 3 pins

    they are pulled high by the internal pull-ups and can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 3 pins that

    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 theAT89C2051 as listed below:

    Port 3 also receives some control signals for Flash programming and verification.

    RST:

    Reset input. All I/O pins are reset to 1s as soon as RST goes high. Holding the RST pin high for

    two machine cycles while the oscillator is running resets the device.

    Each machine cycle takes 12 oscillator or clock cycles.

    XTAL1:

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    26/79

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    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 Figure 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 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.

    Special Function Registers

    A map of the on-chip memory area called the Special Function Register SFR) pace is shown inthe table below.

    Note that not all of the addresses are occupied and unoccupied addresses ay not be implemented

    on the chip. Read accesses to these addresses will in general return random data, and write

    accesses will have an indeterminate

    effect. User software should not write 1s to these unlisted locations, since they may be used in

    future products to invoke new features. In that case, the reset or inactive values of the new bits

    will always be 0

    Restrictions on Certain Instructions:

    The AT89C2051 and is an economical and cost-effective member of Atmels growing family of

    micro controllers .It contains 2K bytes of flash program memory. It is fully compatible with the

    MCS-51 architecture, and can be programmed using the MCS-51 instruction set. However there

    are a few considerations one must keep in mind when utilizing certain instructions to program

    this device.All the instructions related to jumping or branching should be restricted such that the destination

    address falls within the physical program memory space of the device, which is2K for the

    AT89C205 This should be her responsibility of the software programmer. For example, LJMP

    7E0Hwould be a valid instruction for the AT89C2051 (with 2K of memory) , whereas JMP

    900H would not.

    Branching instructions

    LCALL, LJMP, ACALL, AJMP, SJMP, JMP @A+DPTR

    These unconditional branching instructions will execute correctly as long as the programmer

    keeps in mind that the destination branching address must fall within the physical boundaries of

    the program memory size (locations 00H to7FFH for the 89C2051). Violating the physical space

    limits

    May cause unknown program behavior.

    CJNE [...], DJNZ [...], JB, JNB, JC, JNC, JBC, JZ, JNZ With

    These conditional branching instructions the same rule above applies. Again, violating the

    memory boundaries may cause erratic execution .For applications involving interrupts the

    normal interrupt service routine address locations of the 80C51 family architecture have been

    preserved.

    MOVX-related instructions, Data Memory

    The AT89C2051 contains 128 bytes of internal data memory. Thus, in the T89C2051 the stack

    depth is limited to128 bytes, the amount of available RAM. External DATA memory access is

    not supported in this device, nor is external PROGRAM memory execution. Therefore, no

    MOVX [...] instructions should be included in the program.

    A typical 80C51 assembler will still assemble instructions, even if they are written in violation of

    the restrictions mentioned above. It is the responsibility of the controller user to know the

    physical features and limitations of the device being used and adjust the instructions used

    correspondingly.

    Program Memory Lock Bits

    On the chip are two lock bits which can be left un programmed (U) or can be programmed (P) to

    obtain the additional features listed in the table below:

    Lock Bit Protection Modes (1)

    Note: 1 The Lock Bits can only be erased with the Chip Erase operation.

    Idle Mode

    In idle mode, the CPU puts itself to sleep while all the on chip peripherals remain active. The

    mode is invoked by software. The content of the on-chip RAM and all the special functions

    registers remain unchanged during this

    mode. The idle mode can be terminated by any enabled interrupt or by a hardware reset.

    P1.0 and P1.1 should be set to 0 if no external pull ups are used, or set to 1 if external pull

    ups are used. It should be noted that when idle is terminated by a hardware reset, the devicenormally resumes program execution, from where it left off, up to two machine cycles before the

    internal reset algorithm takes control. On-chip hardware inhibits access to internal RAM in this

    event, but access to the port pins is not inhibited. To eliminate the possibility of an unexpected

    write to a port pin when Idle is

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    31/79

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    Terminated by reset, the instruction following the one that invokes Idle should not be one that

    writes to a port pin or to external memory.

    Power-down Mode

    In the power down mode the oscillator is stopped, and the instruction that invokes power down is

    the last instruction executed. The on-chip RAM and Special Function Registers retain their

    values until the power down mode is

    Terminated. The only exit from power down is a hard ware reset. Reset redefines the SFR s but

    does not change the on-chip RAM. The reset should not be activated before VCC is restored to

    its normal operating level and must be held active long enough to allow the oscillator to restart

    and stabilize.

    P1.0 and P1.1 should be set to 0 if no external pull-ups are used, or set to 1 if external pull-

    ups are used.

    Programming The Flash

    The AT89C2051 is shipped with the 2K bytes of on-chip PEROM code memory array in the

    erased state (i.e., contents= FFH) and ready to be programmed. The code

    Memory array is programmed one byte at a time. Once the array is programmed, to re-

    program any non-blank byte the entire memory array needs to be erased electrically.

    Internal Address Counter:The AT89C2051 contains an internal PEROM address counter, which

    is always reset to000H on the rising edge of RST and is advanced by applying a positive going

    pulse to pin XTAL1.

    Programming Algorithm:To program the AT89C2051,the following sequence is recommended.

    1. Power-up sequence:

    Apply power between VCC and GND pins Set RST and XTAL1 to GND

    2. Set pin RST to H

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    32/79

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    Set pin P3.2 to H

    3. Apply the appropriate combination of H or L logic levels to pins P3.3, P3.4, P3.5, P3.7 to

    select one of the programming operations shown in the PEROM Programming Modes table.

    To Program and Verify the Array:

    4. Apply data for Code byte at location 000H to P1.0 to

    P1.7.

    5. Raise RST to 12V to enable programming.

    6. Pulse P3.2 once to program a byte in the PEROM array or the lock bits. The byte-write cycle

    is self-timed and typically takes 1.2 ms.

    7. To verify the programmed data, lower RST from 12V to logic H level and set pins P3.3 to

    P3.7 to the appropriate levels. Output data can be read at the port P1 pins.

    8. To program a byte at the next address location, pulseXTAL1 pin once to advance the internal

    address

    9. Repeat steps 5 through 8, changing data and advancing the counter. Apply new data to the port

    P1 pins. Address counter for the entire 2K bytes array or until the end of the object file is

    reached.

    10. Power-off sequence:

    Set XTAL1 to L

    Set RST to L

    Turn VCC power off

    Data Polling: The AT89C2051 features Data Polling to indicate the end of a write cycle.

    During a write cycle, an attempted read of the last byte written will result in the complement of

    the written data on P1.7. Once the write cycle has been completed, true data is valid on all

    outputs, and the next cycle may begin. Data Polling may begin any time after a write cycle has

    been initiated.

    Ready/Busy: The Progress of byte programming can also be monitored by the RDY/BSY

    output signal. Pin P3.1 is pulled low after P3.2 goes High during programming to indicate

    BUSY. P3.1 is pulled High again when programming is done to indicate READY.

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    33/79

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    Program Verify: If lock bits LB1 and LB2 have not been programmed code data can be read

    back via the data lines for verification:

    1. Reset the internal address counter to 000H by bringing RST from L to H.

    2. Apply the appropriate control signals for Read Code data and read the output data at the port

    P1 pins.

    3. Pulse pin XTAL1 once to advance the internal address counter.

    4. Read the next code data byte at the port P1 pins.

    5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the entire array is read .The lock bits cannot be verified directly.

    Verification of the lock bits is achieved by observing that their features are enabled.

    Chip Erase: The entire PEROM array (2K bytes) and the two Lock Bits are erased electrically

    by using the proper combination of control signals and by holding P3.2 low for 10 ms. The code

    array is written with all 1s in the Chip.

    Erase operation and must be executed before any nonblank memory byte can be re-programmed.

    Reading the Signature Bytes: The signature bytes are read by the same procedure as a normal

    verification of locations 000H, 001H, and 002H, except that P3.5 and P3.7 must be pulled to

    logic low. The values returned are as follows.

    (000H) = 1EH indicates manufactured by Atmel

    (001H) = 21H indicates 89C2051

    Programming Interface:

    Every code byte in the Flash array can be written and using the appropriate combination of

    control signals can erase the entire array. The write operation cycle is self timed and once

    initiated, will automatically time itself to completion.

    All major programming vendors offer worldwide support for the Atmel micro controller series.

    Please contact your local programming vendor for the appropriate software revision.

    Pressure Sensor/Switch

    A pressure sensor or switch measures pressure. Pressure is usually expressed in terms of force

    per unit area. A pressure sensor usually acts as a transducer; it generates a signal as a function of

    41/79

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    the pressure imposed. Fig.4.1.13

    Pressure sensors can be classified in term of pressure ranges they measure, temperature ranges

    of operation, and most importantly the type of pressure they measure. In terms of pressure type,

    pressure sensors can be divided into five categories:

    1) Absolute pressure sensor

    This sensor measures the pressure relative to perfect vacuum pressure.

    2) Gauge pressure sensor

    This sensor is used in different applications because it can be calibrated to measure the pressure

    relative to a given atmospheric pressure at a given location.

    3) Vacuum pressure sensor

    This sensor is used to measure pressure less than the atmospheric pressure at a given location.

    4) Differential pressure sensor

    This sensor measures the difference between two or more pressures introduced as inputs to the

    sensing unit.

    5) Sealed pressure sensor

    This sensor is the same as the gauge pressure sensor except that it is previously calibrated by

    manufacturers to measure pressure relative to sea level pressure.

    1.10.1 Pressure Sensing Technology

    There are two basic categories of analog pressure sensors:

    (i) Force collector types - These types of electronic pressure sensors generally use a force

    collector (such a diaphragm, piston, bourdon tube, or bellows) to measure strain (or deflection)

    due to applied force (pressure) over an area.

    (ii) Other types - These types of electronic pressure sensors use other properties (such as

    density) to infer pressure of a gas, or liquid.

    Here well discuss only about Force collector type of pressure sensors. Force collecting pressure

    sensors are of following types:

    Piezoresistive Strain Gauge-

    Uses the piezoresistive effect of bonded or formed strain gauges to detect strain due to applied

    pressure. Generally, the strain gauges are connected to form a wheat stone bridge circuit tomaximize the output of the sensor. This is the most commonly employed sensing technology for

    general purpose pressure measurement.

    Capacitive - Uses a diaphragm and pressure cavity to create a variable capacitor to detect strain

    due to applied pressure. Common technologies use metal, ceramic, and silicon diaphragms.

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    43/79

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    Generally, these technologies are most applied to low pressures (Absolute, Differential and

    Gauge)

    Electromagnetic - Measures the displacement of a diaphragm by means of changes in

    inductance (reluctance), LVDT, Hall Effect, or by eddy current principal.

    Piezoelectric - Uses the piezoelectric effect in certain materials such as quartz to measure the

    strain upon the sensing mechanism due to pressure. This technology is commonly employed for

    the measurement of highly dynamic pressures.

    Optical - Uses the physical change of an optical fiber to detect strain due to applied pressure.

    Potentiometric - Uses the motion of a wiper along a resistive mechanism to detect the strain

    caused by applied pressure .

    4.2.COMPONENTS DESCRIPTION

    TRANSFORMER:

    A transformer is a static device by means of which electric power in one circuit is transformed

    into electric power of the same frequency .In another circuit. It can lower the voltage in the

    circuit but with a corresponding decreases or increase in current. The physical basis of

    transformer is mutual induction between two circuit linked by a magnetic field. In its simplest

    form, it consists of two inductive coils, which are electrically separated but magnetically linked

    through a path of low reluctance as shown in fig. The two coils are connected to a source of

    alternating voltage. An alternating flux is set up in the laminated core. Most of which is linked

    with the other coil in which it produces mutually induced e-m-f of the second coil c-k-t is closed,

    a current flows in it and so electric energy is transformed from the first coil to the second coil

    .The first coil in which electric energy is fed from the ac main supply, is called primary winding

    and the other from which energy is drown, out is called secondary winding. In bried a

    transformer is a device.

    1. Transfer electric power from one ckt to another.

    2. It does so without a change of forge.

    3. It accomplishes this by electromagnetic inductive influence of each other

    Transformer losses:

    Transformer losses are produced by the electrical current flowing in the coils and the magnetic

    field alternating in the core. The losses associated with the coils are called the load losses, while

    the losses produced in the core are called no-load losses.

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    45/79

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    WHAT ARE LOAD LOSSES?

    Load losses vary according to the loading on the transformer. They include heat losses and eddy

    currents in the primary and secondary conductors of the transformer.

    Heat losses, or I2R losses, in the winding materials contribute the largest part of the load losses.

    They are created by resistance of the conductor to the flow of current or electrons. The electron

    motion causes the conductor molecules to move and produce friction and heat. The energy

    generated by this motion can be calculated using the formula:

    Watts = (volts)(amperes) or VI.

    According to Ohms law, V=RI, or the voltage drop across a resistor equals the amount of

    resistance in the resistor, R, multiplied by the current, I, flowing in the resistor. Hence, heat

    losses equal (I) (RI) or I2R.

    Transformer designers cannot change I, or the current portion of the I2R losses, which are

    determined by the load requirements. They can only change the resistance or R part of the I2R by

    using a material that has a low resistance per cross-sectional area without adding significantly to

    the cost of the transformer. Most transformer designers have found copper the best conductor

    considering the weight, size, cost and resistance of the conductor. Designers can also reduce the

    resistance of the conductor by increasing the cross-sectional area of the conductor.

    WHAT ARE NO-LOAD LOSSES?

    No-load losses are caused by the magnetizing current needed to energize the core of the

    transformer, and do not vary according to the loading on the transformer. They are constant and

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    46/79

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    occur 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, regardless of the load, hence the term no-load losses.

    They can be categorized into five components: hysteresis losses in the core laminations, eddy

    current losses in the core laminations, I2R losses due to no-load current, stray eddy current losses

    in core clamps, bolts and other core components, and dielectric losses. Hysteresis losses and

    eddy current losses contribute over 99% of the no-load losses, while stray eddy current, dielectric

    losses and I2R losses due to no-load current are small and consequently often neglected. Thinner

    lamination of the core steel reduces eddy current losses.

    The biggest contributor to no-load losses is hysteresis losses. Hysteresis losses come from the

    molecules in the core laminations resisting being magnetized and demagnetized by the

    alternating magnetic field. This resistance by the molecules causes friction that results in heat.

    The Greek word, hysteresis, means "to lag" and refers to the fact that the magnetic flux lags

    behind the magnetic force. Choice of size and type of core material reduces hysteresis losses

    BRIDGE RECTIFIER

    A diode bridge or bridge rectifier is an arrangement of four diodes connected in a bridge

    circuit as shown below, that provides the same polarity of output voltage for any polarity of the

    input voltage. When used in its most common application, for conversion of alternating current

    (AC) input into direct current (DC) output, it is known as a bridge rectifier. The bridge recitifier

    provides full wave rectification from a two wire AC input (saving the cost of a center tapped

    transformer) but has two diode drops rather than one reducing efficiency over a center tap based

    design for the same output voltage.

    Schematic of a diode bridge:

    VOLTAGE REGULATION

    Another factor of importance in a power supply is the amount the dc output voltage changes

    over a range of ckt operation. The voltage provided at the output under no load condition is

    reduced when load current is drawn from the supply. The amount the dc voltage changes

    between the no load and load condition is described by the voltage regulation

    VOLTAGE REGULATORS:

    A Voltage Regulator (also called a "regulator") has only three legs and appears to be a

    comparatively simple device but it is actually a very complex integrated circuit. A regulator

    converts varying input voltage and produces a constant "regulated" output voltage. Voltage

    regulators are available in a variety of outputs, typically 5 volts, 9 volts and 12 volts. The last

    two digits in the name indicate the output voltage.

    A PN junctions is known as a semiconductor or crystal diode.A crystal diode has two

    terminal when it is connected in a circuit one thing is decide is weather a diode is forward or

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    reversed biased. There is a easy rule to ascertain it. If the external CKT is trying to push the

    conventional current in the direction of error, the diode is forward biased. One the other hand if

    the conventional current is trying is trying to flow opposite the error head, the diode is reversed

    biased putting in simple words.

    1. If arrowhead of diode symbol is positive W.R.T Bar of the symbol, the diode is

    forward biased.

    2. The arrowhead of diode symbol is negative W.R.T bar, the diode is the reverse bias.

    When we used crystal diode it is often necessary to know that which end is arrowhead

    and which end is bar. So following method are available.

    ZENER DIODE-

    It has been already discussed that when the reverse bias on a crystal diode is

    increased a critical voltage, called break down voltage. The break down or zener voltage depends

    upon the amount of doping. If the diode is heavily doped depletion layer will be thin and

    consequently the break down of he junction will occur at a lower reverse voltage. On the other

    hand, a lightly doped diode has a higher break down voltage, it is called zener diode

    .

    Crystal Oscillator

    It is often required to produce a signal whose frequency or pulse rate is very stable and exactly

    known. This is important in any application where anything to do with time or exact

    measurement is

    crucial. It is relatively simple to make an oscillator that produces some sort of a signal, but

    another matter to produce one of relatively precise frequency and stability. AM radio stations

    must have a carrier frequency accurate within 10Hz of its assigned frequency, which may be

    from 530 to 1710 kHz. SSB radio systems used in the HF range (2-30 MHz) must be within 50

    Hz of channel frequency for acceptable voice quality, and within 10 Hz for best results. Some

    digital modes used in weak signal communication may require frequency stability of less than 1

    Hz within a period of several minutes. The carrier frequency must be known to fractions of a

    hertz in some cases. An ordinary quartz watch must have an oscillator accurate to better than a

    few parts per million. One part per million will result in an error of slightly less than one half

    second a day, which would be about 3 minutes a year. This might not sound like much, but an

    error of 10 parts per million would result in an error of about a half an hour per year. A clock

    such as this would need resetting about once a month, and more often if you are the punctual

    type. A programmed VCR with a clock this far off could miss the recording of part of a TV

    show. Narrow band SSB communications at VHF and UHF frequencies still need 50 Hz

    frequency accuracy. At 440 MHz, this is slightly more than 0.1 part per million.

    Ordinary L-C oscillators using conventional inductors and capacitors can achieve typically 0.01

    to 0.1 percent frequency stability, about 100 to 1000 Hz at 1 MHz. This is OK for AM and FM

    broadcast receiver applications and in other low-end analog receivers not requiring high tuning

    accuracy. By careful design and component selection, and with rugged mechanical

    construction, .01 to 0.001%, or even better (.0005%) stability can be achieved. The better figures

    together with environmental control (good ventilation and ambient temperature regulation) and

    battleship mechanical construction. This has been done in some communications receivers

    used by the military and commercial HF communication receivers built in the 1950-1965 era,

    before the widespread use of digital frequency synthesis. But these receivers were extremely

    expensive, large, and heavy. Many modern consumer grade AM, FM, and shortwave receivers

    employing crystal controlled digital frequency synthesis will do as well or better from a

    frequency stability standpoint.

    An oscillator is basically an amplifier and a frequency selective feedback network (Fig 1). When,

    at a particular frequency, the loop gain is unity or more, and the total phaseshift at this frequency

    is zero, or some multiple of 360 degrees, the condition for oscillation is satisfied, and the circuit

    will produce a periodic waveform of this frequency. This is usually a sine wave, or square wave,

    but triangles, impulses, or other waveforms can be produced. In fact, several different waveforms

    often are simultaneously produced by the same circuit, at different points. It is also possible to

    have several frequencies produced as well, although this is generally undesirable.

    A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify and switch electronic signals. It is made

    of a solid piece of semiconductor material, with at least three terminals for connection to an

    external circuit. A voltage or current applied to one pair of the transistor's terminals changes the

    current flowing through another pair of terminals. Because the controlled (output)power can be

    much more than the controlling (input) power, the transistor provides amplification of a signal.

    Some transistors are packaged individually but many more are found embedded in integrated

    circuits.

    The transistor is the fundamental building block of modern electronic devices, and its presence is

    ubiquitous in modern electronic systems.

    A bipolar (junction) transistor(BJT) is a three-terminal electronic device constructed ofdoped

    semiconductormaterial and may be used in amplifying or switching

    applications. Bipolar transistors are so named because their operation involves

    bothelectrons and holes. Charge flow in a BJT is due to bidirectional diffusion of charge carriers

    across a junction between two regions of different charge concentrations. This mode of operation

    is contrasted with unipolar transistors, such asfield-effect transistors, in which only one carrier

    type is involved in charge flow due todrift. By design, most of the BJT collector current is due

    to the flow of charges injected from a high-concentration emitter into the base where they

    are minority carriers that diffuse toward the collector, and so BJTs are classified as minority-

    carrier devices.

    A bipolar transistor has terminals labeled base, collector, and emitter. A small current at the base

    terminal (that is, flowing from the base to the emitter) can control or switch a much larger

    current between the collector and emitter terminals.

    Types of BJT

    1) NPN

    Fig.4.2. 10

    NPN is one of the two types of bipolar transistors, in which the letters "N" and "P" refer to the

    majority charge carriers inside the different regions of the transistor. Most bipolar transistors

    used today are NPN, because electron mobility is higher than hole mobility in semiconductors,

    allowing greater currents and faster operation.

    NPN transistors consist of a layer of P-doped semiconductor (the "base") between two N-doped

    layers. A small current entering the base in common-emitter mode is amplified in the collector

    output. In other terms, an NPN transistor is "on" when its base is pulled high relative to the

    emitter.

    The arrow in the NPN transistor symbol is on the emitter leg and points in the direction of the

    conventional current flow when the device is in forward active mode.

    2) PNP

    The other type of BJT is the PNP with the letters "P" and "N" referring to the majority charge

    carriers inside the different regions of the transistor.

    Fig.4.2.11

    The diagram above is a schematic representation of an NPN transistor connected to two voltage

    sources. To make the transistor conduct appreciable current (on the order of 1 mA) from C to

    E, VBE must be above a minimum value sometimes referred to as the cut-in voltage. The cut-in

    voltage is usually about 600 mV for silicon BJTs at room temperature but can be different

    depending on the type of transistor and its biasing. This applied voltage causes the lower P-N

    junction to 'turn-on' allowing a flow of electrons from the emitter into the base. In active mode,

    the electric field existing between base and collector (caused by VCE) will cause the majority of

    these electrons to cross the upper P-N junction into the collector to form the collector currentIC.

    The remainder of the electrons recombine with holes, the majority carriers in the base, making a

    current through the base connection to form the base current, IB. As shown in the diagram, the

    emitter current,IE, is the total transistor current, which is the sum of the other terminal currents

    (i.e. ).In the diagram, the arrows representing current point in the direction of conventional current

    the flow of electrons is in the opposite direction of the arrows because electrons carry

    negative electric charge. In active mode, the ratio of the collector current to the base current is

    called theDC current gain. This gain is usually 100 or more, but robust circuit designs do not

    depend on the exact value (for example see op-amp). The value of this gain for DC signals is

    referred to as hFE, and the value of this gain for AC signals is referred to as hfe. However, when

    there is no particular frequency range of interest, the symbol is used

    It should also be noted that the emitter current is related to VBE exponentially. At room

    temperature, an increase in VBE by approximately 60 mV increases the emitter current by a factor

    of 10. Because the base current is approximately proportional to the collector and emitter

    currents, they vary in the same way.

    Transistor as a switch

    In a grounded-emitter transistor circuit, such as the light-switch circuit shown, as the base

    voltage rises the base and collector current rise exponentially, and the collector voltage drops

    because of the collector load resistor. The relevant equations:

    VRC = ICE RC, the voltage across the load (the lamp with resistance RC)

    VRC + VCE = VCC, the supply voltage shown as 6V

    If VCE could fall to 0 (perfect closed switch) then Ic could go no higher than VCC / RC, even with

    higher base voltage and current. The transistor is then said to be saturated. Hence, values of input

    voltage can be chosen such that the output is either completely off or completely on. The

    transistor is acting as a switch, and this type of operation is common in digital circuits where

    only "on" and "off" values are relevant.

    CAPACITOR

    A capacitor orcondenser is a passiveelectronic component consisting of a pair ofconductors

    separated by a dielectric (insulator). When a potential difference (voltage) exists across the

    conductors, an electric field is present in the dielectric. This field stores energy and produces a

    mechanical force between the conductors. The effect is greatest when there is a narrow

    separation between large areas of conductor, hence capacitor conductors are often called plates.

    An ideal capacitor is characterized by a single constant value, capacitance, which is measured in

    farads. This is the ratio of the electric charge on each conductor to the potential difference

    between them. In practice, the dielectric between the plates passes a small amount of leakage

    current. The conductors and leads introduce an equivalent series resistance and the dielectric has

    an electric field strength limit resulting in a breakdown voltage.

    Capacitors are widely used in electronic circuits to block the flow of direct current while

    allowing alternating current to pass, to filter out interference, to smooth the output ofpower

    supplies, and for many other purposes. They are used in resonant circuits in radio frequency

    equipment to select particularfrequencies from a signal with many frequencies.

    A simple demonstration of a parallel-plate capacitor

    A capacitor consists of two conductors separated by a non-conductive region.The non-

    conductive substance is called the dielectric medium, although this may also mean a vacuum or a

    semiconductordepletion region chemically identical to the conductors. A capacitor is assumed to

    be self-contained and isolated, with no net electric charge and no influence from an external

    electric field. The conductors thus contain equal and opposite charges on their facing surfaces,

    and the dielectric contains an electric field. The capacitor is a reasonably general model for

    electric fields within electric circuits.

    An ideal capacitor is wholly characterized by a constant capacitance C, defined as the ratio of

    charge Q on each conductor to the voltage Vbetween them

    Sometimes charge buildup affects the mechanics of the capacitor, causing the capacitance to

    vary. In this case, capacitance is defined in terms of incremental changes:

    In SI units, a capacitance of one farad means that one coulomb of charge on each conductor

    causes a voltage of one volt across the device.

    Energy storage

    Work must be done by an external influence to move charge between the conductors in acapacitor. When the external influence is removed, the charge separation persists and energy is

    stored in the electric field. If charge is later allowed to return to its equilibriumposition, the

    energy is released. The work done in establishing the electric field, and hence the amount of

    energy stored, is given by:

    Current-voltage relation

    The current i(t) through a component in an electric circuit is defined as the rate of change of the

    charge q(t) that has passed through it. Physical charges cannot pass through the dielectric layer of

    a capacitor, but rather build up in equal and opposite quantities on the electrodes: as each

    electron accumulates on the negative plate, one leaves the positive plate. Thus the accumulated

    charge on the electrodes is equal to the integral of the current, as well as being proportional to

    the voltage (as discussed above). As with any antiderivative, a constant of integration is added to

    represent the initial voltage v (t0). This is the integral form of the capacitor equation,

    .

    Taking the derivative of this, and multiplying by C, yields the derivative form,[12]

    .

    The dual of the capacitor is the inductor, which stores energy in the magnetic field rather than the

    electric field. Its current-voltage relation is obtained by exchanging current and voltage in the

    capacitor equations and replacing Cwith the inductanceL.

    A simple resistor-capacitor circuit demonstrates charging of a capacitor.

    A series circuit containing only a resistor, a capacitor, a switch and a constant DC source of

    voltage V0 is known as a charging circuit. If the capacitor is initially uncharged while the

    switch is open, and the switch is closed at t= 0, it follows from Kirchhoff's voltage law that

    Taking the derivative and multiplying by C, gives a first-order differential equation,

    At t= 0, the voltage across the capacitor is zero and the voltage across the resistor is V0.

    The initial current is then i (0) =V0 /R. With this assumption, the differential equation yields

    where 0 =RCis the time constantof the system.

    As the capacitor reaches equilibrium with the source voltage, the voltage across the resistor and

    the current through the entire circuit decay exponentially. The case ofdischarging a charged

    capacitor likewise demonstrates exponential decay, but with the initial capacitor voltage

    replacing V0 and the final voltage being zero.

    Resistors are used to limit the value of current in a circuit. Resistors offer

    opposition to the flow of current. They are expressed in ohms for which the

    symbol is . Resistors are broadly classified as

    (1)Fixed Resistors

    (2)Variable Resistors

    Fixed Resistors:

    The most common of low wattage, fixed type resistors is the molded-carbon

    composition resistor. The resistive material is of carbon clay composition.

    The leads are made of tinned copper. Resistors of this type are readily

    available in value ranging from few ohms to about 20M, having a tolerance

    range of 5 to 20%. They are quite inexpensive. The relative size of all fixed

    resistors changes with the wattage rating.

    Another variety of carbon composition resistors is the metalized type. It is made

    by deposition a homogeneous film of pure carbon over a glass, ceramic or other insulating core.This type of film-resistor is sometimes called the precision type, since it can be obtained with an

    accuracy of 1%.

    A Wire Wound Resistor :

    It uses a length of resistance wire, such as nichrome. This wire is woundedon to a round hollow porcelain core. The ends of the winding are attached to

    these metal pieces inserted in the core. Tinned copper wire leads are

    attached to these metal pieces. This assembly is coated with an enamel

    coating powdered glass. This coating is very smooth and gives mechanical

    protection to winding. Commonly available wire wound resistors have

  • 7/30/2019 power saving street light

    www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

    resistance values ranging from 1 to 100K, and wattage rating up to about

    200W.

    Coding Of Resistor:

    Some resistors are large enough in size to have their resistance printed on

    the body. However there are some resistors that are too small in size to have

    numbers printed on them. Therefore, a system of colour coding is used to

    indicate their values. For fixed, moulded composition resistor four colour

    bands are printed on one end of the outer casing. The colour bands are

    always read left to right from the end that has the bands closest to it. The

    first and second band represents the first and second significant digits, of the

    resistance value. The third band is for the number of zeros that follow the

    second digit. In case the third band is gold or silver, it represents amultiplying factor of 0.1to 0.01. The fourth band represents the

    manufactures tolerance.

    Then its range will be

    Most resistors have 4 bands:

    The first band gives the first digit. The second band gives the second digit. The third band indicates the number of zeros. The fourth band is used to show the tolerance (precision) of the

    resistor.

    This resistor has red (2), violet (7), yellow (4 zeros) and gold bands.

    So its value is 270000 = 270 k .

    The standard colour code cannot show values of less than 10 . To show

    these small values two special colours are used for the third band: gold,

    which means 0.1 and silver which means 0.01. The first and second

    bands represent the digits as normal.

    For example:

    red, violet, gold bands represent 27 0.1 = 2.7

    blue, green, silverbands represent 56 0.01 = 0.56

    The fourth band of the colour code shows the tolerance of a resistor.

    Tolerance is the precision of the resistor and it is given as a percentage. For

    example a 390 resistor with a tolerance of 10% will have a value within

    10% of 390 , between 390 - 39 = 351 and 390 + 39 = 429 (39 is 10% of

    390).

    A special colour code is used for the fourth band tolerance:

    silver 10%, gold 5%, red 2%, brown 1%.If no fourth band is shown the tolerance is 20%.

    VARIABLE RESISTOR: In electronic circuits, sometimes it becomes

    necessary to adjust the values of currents and voltages. For n example it is

    often desired to change the volume of sound, the brightness of a televisionpicture etc. Such adjustments can be done by using variable resistors.

    Although the variable resistors are usually called rheostats in otherapplications, the smaller variable resistors commonly used in electronic circuitsare called potentiometers.

    Resistor shorthand:

    Resistor values are often written on circuit diagrams using a code system

    which avoids using a decimal point because it is easy to miss the small dot.

    Instead the letters R, K and M are used in place of the decimal point. To read

    the code: replace the letter with a decimal point, then multiply the value by

    1000 if the letter was K, or 1000000 if the letter was M. The letter R means

    multiply by 1.

    For example:

    560R means 560

    2K7 means 2.7 k = 2700

    39K means 39 k

    1M0 means 1.0 M = 1000 k

    Power Ratings of Resistors

    Fig.4.2.21

    Electrical energy is converted to heat when current flows through a resistor. Usually the

    effect is negligible, but if the resistance is low (or the voltage across the resistor high) a

    large current may pass making the resistor become noticeably warm. The resistor must be

    able to withstand the heating effect and resistors have power ratings to show this.

    Power ratings of resistors are rarely quoted in parts lists because for most circuits the standard

    power ratings of 0.25W or 0.5W are suitable. For the rare cases where a higher power is required

    it should be clearly specified in the parts list, these will be circuits using low value resistors (less

    than about 300 ) or high voltages (more than 15V).

    The power, P, developed in a resistor is given by:

    P = I R

    or

    P = V / R

    where: P = power developed in the resistor in watts (W)

    I = current through the resistor in amps (A)

    R = resistance of the resistor in ohms ( )

    V = voltage across the resistor in volts (V)

    Examples:

    A 470 resistor with 10V across it, needs a power rating P = V/R =10/470 = 0.21W.In this case a standard 0.25W resistor would be suitable.

    A 27 resistor with 10V across it, needs a power rating P = V/R =10/27 = 3.7W.A high power resistor with a rating of 5W would be suitable.

    Heat sink

    Fig.4.2.22

    Waste heat is produced in transistors due to the current flowing through them. Heat sinks are

    needed for power transistors because they pass large currents. If you find that a transistor is

    becoming too hot to touch it certainly needs a heat sink! The heat sink helps to dissipate(remove) the heat by transferring it to the surrounding air.

    CONNECTORS

    Connectors are basically used for interface between two. Here we use connectors for

    having interface between PCB and 8051 Microprocessor Kit.

    There are two types of connectors they are male and female. The one,

    which is with pins inside, is female and other is male.

    These connectors are having bus wires with them for connection.

    For high frequency operation the average circumference of a coaxial cable

    must be limited to about one wavelength, in order to reduce multimodal

    propagation and eliminate erratic reflection coefficients, power losses, and

    signal distortion. The standardization of coaxial connectors during World War

    II was mandatory for microwave

    Operation to maintain a low reflection coefficient or a low voltage standing

    wave ratio.

    Seven types of microwave coaxial connectors are as follows:

    1. APC-3.5

    2. APC-7

    3. BNC

    4. SMA

    5. SMC

    6. TNC

    7. Type N

    LED (LIGHT EMITTING DIODE)

    A junction diode, such as LED, can emit light or exhibit electro

    luminescence. Electro luminescence is obtained by injecting minority carriers

    into the region of a pn junction where radiative transition takes place. Inradiative transition, there is a transition of electron from the conduction band

    to the valence band, which is made possibly by emission of a photon. Thus,

    emitted light comes from the hole electron recombination. What is required

    is that electrons should make a transition from higher energy level to lower

    energy level releasing photon of wavelength corresponding to the energy

    difference associated with this transition. In LED the supply of high-energy

    electron is provided by forward biasing the diode, thus injecting electrons

    into the n-region and holes into p-region.

    The pn junction of LED is made from heavily doped material. On forward

    bias condition, majority carriers from both sides of the junction cross the

    potential barrier and enter the opposite side where they are then minority

    carrier and cause local minority carrier population to be larger than normal.

    This is termed as minority injection. These excess minority carrier diffuse

    away from the junction and recombine with majority carriers.

    In LED, every injected electron takes part in a radiative recombination and

    hence gives rise to an emitted photon. Under reverse bias no carrier injection

    takes place and consequently no photon is emitted. For direct transition from

    conduction band to valence band the emission wavelength.

    In practice, every electron does not take part in radiative recombination

    and hence, the efficiency of the device may be described in terms of the

    quantum efficiency which is defined as the rate of emission of photons

    divided by the rate of supply of electrons. The number of radiative

    recombination, that take place, is usually proportional to the carrier injection

    rate and hence to the total current flowing.
