The aim of this project is to provide a solution for charging of mobile at public places. The person who wants to charge his mobile has to insert a coin and connect his mobile with the charger. His mobile will be charged a particular amount of time depending on the number of coins inserted by him. As the total time gets lapsed, the charging will be stopped. It can be further explained with the help of following block diagram.

POWER SUPPLY: The input is 230V AC which is step down using the transformer (12-0-12) .The 12V ac input is fed to the bridge diode to gives 12V pulsating DC. This DC voltage is filtered through the capacitor to remove the ripples. The filtered DC is fed to 7805 regulator to fetch +5v regulated output. This regulated voltage is given to all the components to function properly. INPUT SECTION: This unit consists of the coin sensor to sense the coin. It gives a voltage variation according to coin sensed. This variation can be fed to the control as an input.

OUTPUT SECTION: This consists of two features that is LCD for display and the driving unit to put on and off the charging. The LCD will be 16x2 LCD used for display of the data as per need. The driving unit consists of the relay and relay driver IC ULN2803 (provides sufficient current and voltage to the relay to activate. Relay is basically an electromagnetic switch which enables supply on being excited else keeps the supply disabled across the load. In our case the supply to be enabled is given by the solar panel charger and the load will be the mobile. This supply will be only enabled when coin is inserted to give the input. For each coin the charger will activate for some duration of time. More the coin inserted more will be the charging. PROCESSING SECTION: This section consists of the microcontroller of the AVR series ATMEGA 168 to check for the input from the input unit and give the output to control the LCD unit and the driving the unit. All this is being controlled by the efficient programming of the controller for the input monitoring and proper output generation for both the unit. The controller is programmed in ARDUINO compiler using C++ logic.

The Arduino programming language is an implementation of Wiring, a similar physical computing platform, which is based on the Processing multimedia programming environment. Arduino can be used to develop interactive objects, taking inputs from a variety of switches or sensors, and controlling a variety of lights, motors, and other physical outputs. Arduino hardware is programmed using a Wiring-based language (syntax and libraries), similar to C++ with some slight simplifications and modifications, and a Processingbased integrated development environment The Arduino IDE comes with a C/C++ library although users only need define two functions to make a run-able program:

This is digital as well as analog controller . This controller can handle input /output of following type.
INPUT OUTPUT Digital input Analog input Digital output Analog output

 Pin

mapping: It is 28 pin DIP IC Requires 16 MHz crystal oscillator AREF is to adjust resolution for analog monitoring Other pins are configured as per the need of circuit interface

resistor is a device found in circuits that has a certain amount of resistance. Why would you ever want to add resistance to a circuit by using a resistor? The most common reason is that we need to be able to adjust the current flowing through a particular part of the circuit. If voltage is constant, then we can change the resistor to change the current. I=V /R If V is constant and we change R, I will be different. So for a constant voltage it limits the current

diode bridge is an arrangement of four (or more) diodes in a bridge circuit configuration that provides the same polarity of output for either polarity of input When used in its most common application, for conversion of an alternating current (AC) input into a direct current (DC) output, it is known as a bridge rectifier

Is an electronic display module. 16x2 LCD display is very basic module and is very commonly used in various devices and circuits. 16x2 LCD means it can display 16 characters per line and there are 2 such lines. Has two registers namely, Command and Data. The command register stores the command instructions. The data register stores the data to be displayed on the LCD. The data is the ASCII value of the character to be displayed on the LCD.

A PCB layout is required to place components on the PCB so that the component area can be minimized and the components can be placed in an efficient manner. There are various softwares available for this purpose like

Express PCB Pad2pad Protel PCB PCB design etc.

Express PCB is a very easy to use Windows application for laying out printed circuit boards There are lots of functions available in the software. This software is free of cost and also it is very easy to use

 To

store electricity, or electrical energy. Also functions as filter, passing AC, and blocking DC. Apply DC voltage- electric charge is stored on each electrode. Three types of capacitor i.e. ceramic capacitor & electrolytic capacitor and variable. Polarized capacitors - Electrolytic Un-Polarized capacitors ceramic Variable capacitors

A crystal oscillator 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".

voltage regulator is designed to automatically maintain a constant voltage level Voltage regulator ICs are available with fixed voltage (typically 5, 12 and 15V) or variable output voltages For ICs within the 78xx family, the xx is replaced with two digits, indicating the output voltage (for example, the 7805 has a 5 volt output, while the 7812 produces 12 volts)

The basic principle for coin detection is to test the physical properties of the coin against known characteristics of acceptable coins. The detector evaluates the coin based on its weight, size, and/or magnetism, and then sends an appropriate electrical signal via its output connection. The next step is generally performed by the coin changer. Some new types of coin acceptors are able to recognize the coins through "training", so they will support any new types of coins or tokens when properly introduced

A solar panel (also solar module, photovoltaic module or photovoltaic panel) is a packaged, connected assembly of photovoltaic cells. Each panel is rated by its DC output power under standard test conditions, and typically ranges from 100 to 320 watts. A photovoltaic system typically includes an array of solar panels, an inverter, and sometimes a battery
