WEEK 6 : PRORAMMING IN C




بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ


FYPII


Week 6

Title: Programming in C

Objective: to ensure the PIC microcontroller is operate and also study on input and output pin

Content/Procedure: I create a single programming for this project to measure the voltage  and display at LCD display. i start to design using proteus software.


Result & Analysis:


pin configuration

connection between PIC and circuit .
B=battery
SP= solar panel 

portB connect to LCD display
portD connect to relay

WEEK 5: SOLAR CHARGING

                                            بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ 

FYP II 

Week 5 

Title: Constructing the solar charging circuit

Objective: construct the charging circuit on breadboad

Content/Procedure: 
  •                                  conctruct the circuit on the breadboard. 
  •                                   connect to the solar panel (photovoltaic)
  •                                   measure the voltage value (output)



Result & Analysis:

this is the voltage produced by the solar panel. LED was on that is mean the circuit is in dumping mode

WEEK 4:RELAY DRIVING BASIC

Week4


Title: Relay driving Basic

Objective: To understand the Relay function

Content/Procedure:
Relays are components which allow a low-power circuit toswitch a relatively high current on and off, or to control signalsthat must be electrically isolated from the controlling circuit itself.
To make a relay operate, i have to pass a suitable .pull-in. and .holding. current (DC) through its energising coil. And generally relay coils are designed to operate from a particular supply voltage . often 12V or 5V,  the coil has resistance which will draw the right pull-in and holding currents when it is connected to that supply voltage. So the basic idea is to choose a relay with a coil designed to operate from the supply voltage are by control circuit


Result & Analysis:


Block diagram of relay driving basic that used in my project

WEEK 3 : TESTING THE SOLAR PANEL



بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ


FYP II

Week 3

Title: Testing the Solar panel

Objective: To recognize the solar panel polarity

Content/Procedure:
The solar charge controller  have been test with the sunlight at certain degree where the sun absorbs at the maximum power point. Using the multimeter







Result & Analysis:



Equipment setup to operate the circuit





When the solar array connected to the solar panel, the voltage reading at multimeter at is high than zero.
