Familiarization with Microcontroller Training system (MC-8600)

Objective
To get an introduction with modules of MC-8600 trainer. All the modules are illustrated in the
figure 1:

1. Name all the modules included in microcontroller-based trainer (MC-8600).

 Microcontroller AVR/PIC/8051 Board
 Power Supply Unit
 Programming Port
 Interrupt Source
 DIP Switches
 LED Array
 Power Supply Unit (PSU)
 Key PAD
 Graphic LCD (128 x 64)
 Character LCD (16 x 2)
 7 Segment Display
 Analog to Digital Converter
 Digital to Analog Converter
 I2C Interface
 RJ-45/RS-485/RS-232 interface
 Servo Motor Control
 DC Motor Control
 Temperature Control

2. Write a brief description of each module available in MC-8600.

PSU
It provides 4 different voltages i.e. +12V, -12V, +5V, -5V for external use particularly for
providing +12V supply voltage to Temperature Control module.
Programming Port
This port is used to serve as a mean to program the controller. It consists of a DB-9 and Jumper
Connector J1. J1 is connected with Programming port of programmer by a 10 pin data cable.
LED Array
It consists of 8 LED array i.e. L0-L7 and to control it a Jumper Connector J2 is provided.

Interrupt Source
There are two interrupts included in this module. One is active low INT0 and other is active
high INT1.
DIP Switch 8 DIP switches can be used to input the data through jumper connector J3 to
controller.
Key PAD Key PAD is used to demonstrate the multiplexing technique. It contains
alphanumeric keys i.e. A-Z,0-9, arrow keys, delete and back space .
7 Segment Display By multiplexing, the number of seven segment units multiplexed
would be using only the seven output ports and enable pins equal to the number of
display units to display the output.
16x2 Character LCD A 16x2 character LCD is provided to display text data. It displays
the character data (A-Z, 0-9).J11 port is used to connect with microcontroller.
128x64 Graphic LCD A monochrome graphical LCD is provided to display both
character and graphic data. It provides 128x64 pixel area for display.
Analog to Digital Converter Atmel AVR/Microchip 16 series controller comes with
built-in 8-channel, 10-bit Analog to Digital Converter. There are 8 channels CH0-Ch7 for
digital input.
Digital to Analog Converter It converts 8-bit digital data from controller to analog
signal available at O/P. Offset can be controlled by tuning the pot provided.
Servo Motor Servo motor is commercially used in many applications. They are
commonly found in robotics, UAVs. A PWM signal is sent by controller to SERVO motor
driver that controls the speed and step size of rotation .
DC Motor A disk with a slot is attached to a DC motor. This slot upon rotation cuts the IR
sensor, which sends the pulse train to the controller. The frequency of pulse train gives the
rpm. Speed of DC motor is controlled by H-Bridge which provides 4-quadrant motor
operation.
Temperature Control Temperature control experiment is used to study the
discrete/digital PID control system. A 5W resistor is used to model a heater. A temperature
sensor is attached to the heater that sends temperature data to the microcontroller/PID
controller. It then turns on/off the fan to set the temperature in the desired range.
