8051 Can't Be Ignored

Despite it’s relatively old age, the 8051 is one of the most popular microcontrollers in use today. Many derivative microcontrollers have since been developed that are based on compatible with the 8051. A microcontroller   can be defined as computer-on-a-chip built for dealing with specific tasks or a single task, such as displaying or receiving information through LEDs or remote controlled devices. The most commonly used set of microcontrollers belong to 8051 Family. 8051 introduced by Intel in late 1970s. 8051 Microcontrollers are preferred choice for a most of the community of hobbyists and professionals. Through 8051, the world became witness to the most revolutionary set of microcontrollers. Thus, the ability to program an 8051 is an important skill for anyone who plans to develop products that will take advantage of microcontrollers.




PIC is a family of modified Harvard architecture microcontrollers made by Microchip Technology, derived from the PIC1650 originally developed by General Instrument's Microelectronics Division. The name PIC initially referred to “Peripheral Interface Controller”. PICs are popular with both industrial developers and hobbyists similarly to 8051, due to their low cost, wide availability, more dependent on user, extensive collection of application notes, availability of free development tools, and serial programming and also it can be re-programming with flash memory capability. They are also commonly used in educational programming as they often come with the easy to use 'pic logicator' software.

Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)


     A PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLER (PLC) is an industrial computer control system that continuously monitors the state of input devices and makes decisions based upon a custom program, to control the state of devices connected as outputs.

        Almost any production line, machine function or process can be automated using a PLC. The speed and accuracy of the operation can be greatly enhanced using this type of control system. But the biggest benefit in using a PLC is the ability to change and replicate the operation or process while collecting and communicating vital information.
 
         A PLC is an example of a hard real time system since output results must be produced in response to input conditions within a limited time, otherwise unintended operation will result.






A PLC consists of following main parts:




What is a PLC input/output?



INPUT
OUT
Sensing Devices
Valves
         Switches and Push buttons
      Solenoids
     Proximity Sensors
  Motor
Limit Switches
       Actuators
     Pressure Switches
    Pumps





 

 PLC Operations consist of four steps

            1. Input Scan: Scans the state of the Inputs
            2. Program Scan: Executes the program logic
            3. Output Scan: Energize/DE-energize the outputs
            4. Housekeeping

Displacement Sensors

               These Sensors can be used  to measure the position or change of position of Object. A wide variety of models is available, including Laser Sensors, LED Sensors, Ultrasonic Sensors, Contact Sensors, Eddy Current Sensors, and more.


 A wide variety of models is available,

OPTICAL displacement SENSORS

Principle of measurement of the optical displacement sensor
 
               Light from the light source is condensed by the lens and directed onto the object.Light reflected from the object is condensed onto a one-dimensional position sensing device (PSD)* by the receiving lens. If the position of the object changes, the image formation positions on the PSD will differ, and if the balance of the two PSD outputs changes, the image formation positions on the PSD will differ and the balance of the two PSD outputs changes.
If the two outputs are A and B, calculate A/(A + B) and use appropriate values for the span coefficient "k" and the offset "C".

              The value measured is not the illuminance (brightness), but the two output displacements A and B, and thus even if the received light intensity changes because the distance to the object changes, the result is not affected and linear output proportional to the distance difference and position shift is obtained.

Voltage, Current and Resistance

     

Voltage

         Voltage is expressed in terms of volts (V) which has a relationship of 1 volt is equal to 1 Joule per Coulomb. Voltage is defined as " The work required per unit charge to move charges ".  Almost ALL basics circuits contain a voltage source such as the battery, similar to diagram shown below. This picture to help us to understand the idea of how voltage works. 




                  The voltage is like a piston which pushes the "fluid" through a pipe. This is representing the voltage pushing current through the circuit. 


Current

               Current is "The rate of flow of electrons through a circuit".  when you have a battery which is connected to a wire pushing those electric charges, it creates a current. Current can be thought of as the amount of charge that passes through a space per unit time (a second usually). Current is read in the unit of ampere (A). 1 Ampere is equal to 1 Coulomb per second.



              
                   From the picture above, the current flow moves around the completed loop of the circuit. If the voltage was kept at a constant ,then the current would be higher with the less amount of resistance.


Resistance

                     Resistance is " The opposition to the flow of electrons ". FOR EX- The rocks in the river that slow down the movement of the water,and decrease the  speed of the flow. Resistivity is given in Ohms per meter and an example resistivity would be 1.7 x 10^-8 (which is copper, the most commonly used wire material). 





                        The picture above is of an actual "resistor" which is a component of a circuit. The bands across a resistor are a color code scheme to label how much resistance the resistor has.

Transformer




        A transformer is a device which is use to convert high alternatic voltage to a low    alternatic voltage and vice versa.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
        Transformer works on the principle of mutual induction of two coils. When current in the primary coil is changed the flux linked to the secondary coil also changes. Consequently an EMF is induced in the secondary coil.

CONSTRUCTION
            A transformer consists of a rectangular core of soft iron in the form of sheets insulated from one another. Two separate coils of insulated wires, a primary coil and a secondary coil are wound on the core. These coils are well insulated from one another and from the core. The coil on the input side is called Primary coil and the coil on the output side is called Secondary coil.

WORKING
 


            Suppose an alternatic voltage source Vp is connected to primary coil. Current in primary will produce magnetic flux which is linked to secondary. When current in primary changes, flux in secondary also changes which results an EMF Vs in secondary. According to Faradays law EMF induced in a coil depends upon the rate of change of magnetic flux in the coil. If resistance of the coil is small then the induced EMF will be equal to voltage applied.
