Embedded Systems
Part 1
Technology Advances
CMOS VLSI dominates older technologies
Price
Simpler development
CMOS VLSI: smaller systems, fewer components
Higher volumes
CMOS VLSI : same device cost 10,000 vs. 10,000,000 units
An Embedded system
The Apollo Guidance Computer, the first recognizable modern embedded system developed by Charles Stark Draper at the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory
Other developments
First Microprocessor Intel 4004 Required external memory and support chips cost of a microcontroller fell below $1 By mid 1980s micro controllers came into existence
By the end of the 80s, embedded systems were the norm rather than the exception
Many different CPU architectures used in embedded designs such as ARM, MIPS, x86, PIC, 8051 etc. Desktop computer market is limited to just a few architectures.
CPU Platform
Serial Communication Interfaces Universal Serial Bus (USB) Networks: Ethernet, Controller Area Network Timers: PLL(s), Capture/Compare and Time Processing Units General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) Analog to Digital/Digital to Analog (ADC/DAC)
Peripherals
Tools
Embedded system designers use compilers, assemblers, and debuggers Utilities to add a checksum or CRC to a program Emulator replaces the microprocessor with a simulated equivalent.
Reliability Issues
System cannot be shut down for repair Solutions involve subsystem for repair system must be kept running for safety and monetary reasons
Part 2:-
Features
Move in all four directions Range is omni directional upto 10 meters Provided with proper Antenna Offers High Torque Runs on Rechargeable battery Move in inclined planes
Applications
The applications of such a Robot are diverse:Driverless Vehicles: These vehicles can have increased reliability and faster reaction time compared to human drivers Planetary Explorations: Exploration on other planets is possible
Defense: These machines are useful in military and defense services as these make autonomous decisions and can attack enemy by planting weapons in their base
Security Patrols and Surveillance: The autonomous robot can be used for Patrolling and Surveillance, hence can be used for maintaining law and order Search and Rescue: These autonomous unmanned machines can go where a human cant go in case of disaster and/or natural calamity and carry out search and rescue operations
Block Diagram
WORKING
The Robot is fitted with a two D.C.Motors which move the robot in all four directions and controlled by a motor driver (L293D I.C.) L293D is a 16-pin IC which can control a set of two DC motors simultaneously in any direction. Motors are assigned at Port 0 and RF is assigned at port 1 of microcontrollers. The Transmitter used here generates the frequency of 27 Mhz which is received by the receiver fitted on robot for its remote accessing. The remote control arrangement is designed in such a way that each action of the robot requires one press of button i.e. by pressing one button an operator can perform only one operation. After releasing button that particular action will be stopped. In operation we can perform more than one action simultaneously.
Pin 2 = high and Pin 7 = low | Clockwise Direction Pin 2 = low and Pin 7 = high| Anticlockwise Direction Pin 2 = Lowand Pin 7 = Low | Idle [No rotation] [Hi-Impedance state] Pin 2 = Lowand Pin 7 = high | Idle [No rotation]
L293D TruthTable
Average Speed of 30cms/sec, top speed at least twice that Maximum dimensions :
0.3 m long 0.2 m wide
5 kg payload capacity. Maximum ground pressure of 3 psi (Pounds per Square inch) Optimized dimensions Careful component selection (Tyres, aluminum base, etc.) Custom wheels, and drive train components
