TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER USING 8085 MICROPROCESSOR
[attachment=17877]
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Industrial and control application/may require automation of the process such as temperature, pressure, liquid flow, etc., in order to minimize manual intervention. To automate any application an intelligent processor plays a major role. One such processor proposed for the project is 8085, an 8-bit microprocessor.
The temperature controller can be used to control the temperature of any plant. Typically it contains a Processor unit, Temperature input unit and Control output unit. The 8085 based motherboard forms the processing unit. The Analog-to-Digital unit together with temperature sensor forms the temperature input unit. The relay driver forms the control output unit. Electric power to the heating element (coil) is supplied through relay contacts. The switching ON/OFF of the relay controls the heat supplied to the plant.
HARDWARE DESCRIPTION:
The hardware consists of 8085 microprocessor motherboard, ADC interface board, and relay and driver unit.
The motherboard consists of 8085 MPU, 8KB EPROM, 8KB RAM keyboard and display controller 8279, programmable peripheral interface 8255, 21 key hex-keypad and six numbers of seven segment LED s. Ports Expansion connector parallel port connectors are provided for external interfacing.
The temperature input board or ADC interface board consists of ADC 0809, which is an 8-bit converter with eight channels of input. It is interfaced with the motherboard through 50-pin bus expansion connector. The temperature sensor ADC590 is used to sense the temperature of the plant and its analog output is applied to the channel-0 of ADC.
Relay is switched ON/OFF by driving the transistor to saturation/cut-off which is connected to port A of 8255.
