1. ABSTRACT

Energy demands in the recent years have been recorded to be growing at an


exponential rate by the commercial and as well as domestic markets. While the non-
renewable resources are rapidly getting depleted, it leaves no other option but to use
renewable resources to produce usable energy. One of these resources, the Solar energy is
the most abundant and easy to harness resource through Solar panels. This project makes
this process of harnessing solar energy more efficient.
The position which has the highest energy capacity is chosen to charge the
Battery. In this way we can harness the most of from the Solar panel by adjusting it to be
incident directly towards Sun consistently. Thus this project makes this process of
harnessing solar energy more efficient and hence smarter.

2. INTRODUCTION

This project is designed in such a manner that it pertains to the slogan ‘prevention
is better than cure’. The power system is facing the challenge of managing the power
demand. This project incorporates special features like power demand problems the
equipment in scrutiny.

The sun light are converted for electrical energy with help of solar panel. At any
time get maximum power rotate the solar panel for sun direction with the help of
arduino(ATmega328P) and servo motor.
The sensors are connected to ATmega328p port 0,and servo motor connected to
port 3.The sensor sense the sun light and give signal to ATmega 328p.The control signal
give from ATmega 328p to servo mechanism .The servo mechanism rotate the panel for
sun direction.

Vast quantity of energy is out there inside the core of sun. The energy that's
received from sun during an hour is over the energy consumed by United States of
America in a year . If we have a tendency to area unit able to capture even a hundred and
twenty fifth of the overall energy that sun delivers then our want may be full stuffed for
many years. solar panels provide most output once the plane of the reflector is traditional
to incident radiations . In recent years, the growing global interest in the conservation of
environment has provided a fresh impetus for research in the area of solar energy
utilization. Installation of solar energy extraction devices such as solar panels, solar water
heaters, solar cookers etc. is becoming popular in urban buildings.
So these devices consist of a solar receptor that is kept facing the sun during the
day with the help of a sun tracking mechanism operated by an electrically driven unit
consisting of a sensor, an actuator and a controller.

It is obvious that an external power source is necessary for energizing the sun
tracking unit .Solar cells are semiconductor diodes that convert portion of accessible
daylight into electric power. These are primarily tangency photo diodes with terribly
massive sensitive space .

3
Every photo diode could be a electric cell. A solar array is created by connecting
of these cells within a module. These solar panels are cascaded along to make arrays to
get high power electricity .

To capture most of the energy, we want to position solar panels within the
acceptable direction. This direction depends upon varied factors. The panels are mounted
at a hard and fast tilt, however as a result of sun keeps ever-changing its position because
of the rotation also because the revolution of earth, these panels will capture additional
energy if their tilt is adjusted periodically. There a two types of systems closed-loop
system and open loop system.

In the closed loop system the sensor senses the position of the sun and sends a
signal to the controlling unit. In an open loop system control algorithms are preloaded in
the controlling unit, which determines the amount of actuation required and sends an
appropriate signal to the motor which tilts the solar device towards the sun.

5.TRANSFORMER (0-12V/1A)

7
It is a general purpose chassis mounting mains transformer. Transformer has 240V
primary windings and centre tapped secondary winding. The transformer has flying
colored insulated connecting leads (Approx 100 mm long). The Transformer act as step
down transformer reducing AC - 240V to AC - 12V. Power supplies for all kinds of
project & circuit boards.

Step down 230 V AC to 12V with a maximum of 1Amp current. In AC circuits,


AC voltage, current and waveform can be transformed with the help of Transformers.
Transformer plays an important role in electronic equipment. AC and DC voltage in
Power supply equipment are almost achieved by transformer’s transformation and
commutation.

A transformer is an electrical device that transfers electrical energy between two


or more circuits through electromagnetic induction. Electromagnetic induction produces
an electromotive force within a conductor which is exposed to time varying magnetic
fields. Transformers are used to increase or decrease the alternating voltages in electric
power applications.

It is a step down transformer in which the secondary winding is more than primary
winding. Due to this windings it can able to step down the voltage. A Transformer
changes electricity from high to low voltage or low to high voltage using two properties
of electricity.

6. RECTIFIER:

Semiconductor diodes are active devices which are extremely important for
various electrical and electronic circuits. Diodes are active non-linear circuit
elements with non-linear voltage-current characteristics. Diode used in a wide variety
of applications in communication systems (limiters, gates, clippers,
mixers),computers (clamps, clippers, logic gates), radar circuits (phase detectors,
gain-control circuits, power detectors parameter amplifiers), radios (mixers,
automatic gain control circuits, message detectors), and television(clamps, limiters,
phase detectors, etc). The ability of diodes to allow the flow of current in only one
direction I commonly exploited in these applications. Another common application
of diodes is in rectifiers for power supplies.

In this chapter we will study some simple diodes and their application in
rectifier circuits for power supplies. Three basic types of rectifier circuits will be
studied. Rectifiers are mainly used in power supplies where an AC signal is to be
converted to DC. The DC voltage is obtained by passing the rectifier’s output
through a filter to remove the ripple (AC components). Although, various types of
filters (covered in the chapter on Frequency Response) can be used, in this chapter
we will limit our analysis to the simplest type of filter using a capacitor.

7.7805 IC Voltage Regulator

A regulated power supply is very much essential for several electronic devices due
to the semiconductor material employed in them have a fixed rate of current as well as
voltage. The device may get damaged if there is any deviation from the fixed rate. The
AC power supply gets converted into constant DC by this circuit. By the help of a voltage
regulator DC, unregulated output will be fixed to a constant voltage. The circuit is made
up of linear voltage regulator 7805 along with capacitors and resistors with bridge
rectifier made up from diodes. From giving an unchanging voltage supply to building
confident that output reaches uninterrupted to the appliance, the diodes along with
capacitors handle elevated efficient signal conveyar.

As we have previously talked about that regulated power supply is a device that
mechanized on DC voltages and also it can uphold its output accurately at a fixed voltage
all the time although if there is a significant alteration in the DC input voltage.

ICs regulator is mainly used in the circuit to maintain the exact voltage which is
followed by the power supply. A regulator is mainly employed with the capacitor
connected in parallel to the input terminal and the output terminal of the IC regulator. For
the checking of gigantic alterations in the input as well as in the output filter, capacitors
are used. While the bypass capacitors are used to check the small period spikes on the
input and output level. Bypass capacitors are mainly of small values that are used to
bypass the small period pulses straightly into the Earth.

9. SOLAR CELL

Solar cell, or photovoltaic cell, is an electrical device that converts the energy of
light directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect, which is a physical and chemical
phenomenon. It is a form of photoelectric cell, defined as a device whose electrical
characteristics, such as current, voltage, or resistance, vary when exposed to light.
Individual solar cell devices can be combined to form modules, otherwise known as solar
panels. In basic terms a single junction silicon solar cell can produce a maximum open-
circuit voltage of approximately 0.5 to 0.6 volts.

Solar cells are described as being photovoltaic, irrespective of whether the source
is sunlight or an artificial light. They are used as a photo detector (for example infrared
detectors), detecting light or other electromagnetic radiation near the visible range, or
measuring light intensity.

 The operation of a photovoltaic (PV) cell requires three basic attributes.

 The absorption of light, generating either electron-hole pairs or excitons.

 The separation of charge carriers of opposite types.

The solar cell works in several steps:

Photons in sunlight hit the solar panel and are absorbed by semiconducting materials,
such as silicon.

Electrons are excited from their current molecular/atomic orbital. Once excited an
electron can either dissipate the energy as heat and return to its orbital or travel through the
cell until it reaches an electrode. Current flows through the material to cancel the potential
and this electricity is captured.

15
The chemical bonds of the material are vital for this process to work, and usually
silicon is used in two layers, one layer being doped with boron, thother phosphorus. These
layers have different chemical electric charges and subsequently both drive and direct the
current of electrons.

An array of solar cells converts solar energy into a usable amount of direct current (DC)
electricity.

An inverter can convert the power to alternating current (AC).

SPECIFICATION:
WATTS : 9W
VOLTAGE : 12V
CURRENT : 1.3A

CHARGE CONTROLLER:

In particle accelerators, electrons or other charged particles are forced to move


along orbits or trajectories by means of magnetic fields. The intensity of the magnetic
fields needed to obtain the desired effects is related to the energy of the particles.
Electromagnets, conventional hot ones or superconducting ones, are normally used. The
excitation current in the magnets can range from some amperes for small orbit correction
coils to some hundreds or thousands of amperes .The power converters needed to cover
such a wide current range have widely differing structures and characteristics and, for the
same power requirement, several solutions are often possible.

In this paper I show the topologies and the characteristics of a particular class of
rectifiers the line commutated ones that was and still is widely used in particle accelerator
facilities. Even today, in the ‘PWM line commutated rectifiers are operating. Moreover,
Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) very often include in their structure ‘conventional’
rectifiers as input or output stages or both.

TYPES OF INFRA-RED SENSORS

There are two types of infrared sensor based on its FUNCTION:

 THERMAL INFRARED SENSOR


 QUANTUM INFRARED SENSOR

These are the types of infrared sensors based on WORKING MECHANISM

 ACTIVE INFRARED SENSORS


 PASSIVE INFRARED SENSORS

WORKING PRINCIPLE OF IR SENSOR

An IR sensor consists of an IR LED and an IR Photodiode; together they are


called as Photo Coupler or Opto Coupler. As said before ,the Infrared Obstacle Sensor
has builtin IR transmitter and IR receiver. Infrared Transmitter is a light emitting diode
(LED) which emits infrared radiations. Hence, they are called IR LED’s. Even though an
IR LED looks like a normal LED, the radiation emitted by it is invisible to the human
eye.

Infrared receivers are also called as infrared sensors as they detect the radiation
from an IR transmitter. IR receivers come in the form of photodiodes and
phototransistors. Infrared Photodiodes are different from normal photo diodes as they
detect only infrared radiation. When the IR transmitter emits radiation, it reaches the
object and some of the radiation reflects back to the IR receiver. Based on the intensity of
the reception by the IR receiver, the output of the sensor is defined.

11. ATmega328p

AVR is a family of microcontrollers developed by Atmel beginning in 1996.


These are modified Harvard architecture 8-bit RISC single-chip microcontrollers. AVR
was one of the first microcontroller families to use on-chip flash memory for program
storage, as opposed to one-time programmable ROM, EPROM, or EEPROM used by
other microcontrollers at the time. The Atmega328 is a very popular microcontroller chip
produced by Atmel. It is an 8-bit microcontroller that has 32K of flash memory, 1K of
EEPROM, and 2K of internal SRAM.

22
The Atmega328 is one of the microcontroller chips that are used with the popular
Arduino Duemilanove boards. The Arduino Duemilanove board comes with either 1 of
2 microcontroller chips, the Atmega168 or the Atmega328. Of these 2, the Atmega328 is
the upgraded, more advanced chip. Unlike the Atmega168 which has 16K of flash
program memory and 512 bytes of internal SRAM, the Atmega328 has 32K of flash
program memory and 2K of Internal SRAM.The Atmega328 has 28 pins.It has 14 digital
I/O pins, of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs and 6 analog input pins. These I/O pins
account for 20 of the pins.

Overview
This section discusses the AVR core architecture in general. The main function of
the CPU core is to ensure correct program execution. The CPU must therefore be able to
access memories, perform calculations, control peripherals, and handle interrupts. In
order to maximize performance and parallelism, the AVR uses a Harvard architecture –
with separate memories and buses for program and data. Instructions in the program
memory are executed with a single level pipelining. While one instruction is being
executed, the next instruction is pre-fetched from the
program memory.
This concept enables instructions to be executed in every clock cycle. The program
memory is In-System Reprogrammable Flash memory. The fast-access Register File
contains 32 x 8-bit general purpose working registers with a single clock cycle access
time. This allows single-cycle Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) operation. In a typical ALU
operation, two operands are output from the Register File, the operation is executed, and
the result is stored back in the Register File – in one clock cycle.

Six of the 32 registers can be used as three 16-bit indirect address register pointers
for Data Space addressing – enabling efficient address calculations. One of the these
address pointers can also be used as an address pointer for look up tables in Flash
program memory. These added function registers are the 16-bit X-, Y-, and Z-register,
described later in this section. The ALU supports arithmetic and logic operations between
registers or between a constant and a register. Single register operations can also be
executed in the ALU. After an arithmetic operation,

26
Program flow is provided by conditional and unconditional jump and call
instructions, able to directly address the whole address space. Most AVR instructions
have a single 16-bit word format. Every program memory address contains a 16- or 32-bit
instruction. Program Flash memory space is divided in two sections, the Boot Program
section and the Application Program section. Both sections have dedicated Lock bits for
write and read/write protection.

The SPM instruction that writes into the Application Flash memory section
must reside in the Boot Program section. During interrupts and subroutine calls, the return
address Program Counter (PC) is stored on the Stack. The Stack is effectively allocated in
the general data SRAM, and consequently the Stack size is only limited by the total
SRAM size and the usage of the SRAM. All user programs must initialize the SP in the
Reset routine (before subroutines or interrupts are executed).

ALU – Arithmetic Logic Unit


The high-performance AVR ALU operates in direct connection with all the
32 general purpose working registers. Within a single clock cycle, arithmetic operations
between general purpose registers or between a register and an immediate are executed.
The ALU operations are divided into three main categories arithmetic, logical, and bit-
functions. Some implementations of the architecture also provide a powerful multiplier
supporting both signed/unsigned multiplication and fractional format.

Status Register
The Status Register contains information about the result of the most
recently executed arithmetic instruction. This information can be used for altering
program flow in order to perform conditional operations. The Status Register is updated
after all ALU operations, as specified in the Instruction Set Reference. This will in many
cases remove the need for using the dedicated compare instructions,resulting in faster and
more compact code. The Status Register is not automatically stored when entering an
interrupt routine and restored when returning from an interrupt. This must be handled by
software. Atmel

27
General Purpose Register File
The Register File is optimized for the AVR Enhanced RISC instruction set. In
order to achieve the required performance and flexibility, the following input/output
schemes are supported by the Register

File:
 One 8-bit output operand and one 8-bit result input
 Two 8-bit output operands and one 8-bit result input
 Two 8-bit output operands and one 16-bit result input
 One 16-bit output operand and one 16-bit result input

Instruction Execution Timing


This section describes the general access timing concepts for instruction
execution. The AVR CPU is driven by the CPU clock clkCPU, directly generated from
the selected clock source for the chip. No internal clock division is used. The Figure
below shows the parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions enabled by the
Harvard architecture and the fast-access Register File concept. This is the basic pipelining
concept to obtain up to 1 MIPS per MHz with the corresponding unique results for
functions per cost, functions per clocks, and functions per power-unit.

Reset and Interrupt Handling

The AVR provides several different interrupt sources. These interrupts and
the separate Reset Vector each have a separate program vector in the program memory
space. All interrupts are assigned individual enable bits which must be written logic one
together with the Global Interrupt Enable bit in the Status Register in order to enable the
interrupt. Depending on the Program Counter value, interrupts may be automatically
disabled when Boot Lock bits BLB02 or BLB12 are programmed. This feature improves
software security.

28
I/O Memory

The I/O space definition of the device is shown in the Register


Summary. All device I/Os and peripherals are placed in the I/O space. All I/O locations
may be accessed by the LD/LDS/LDD and ST/STS/STD instructions, transferring data
between the 32 general purpose working registers and the I/O space. I/O Registers within
the address range 0x00-0x1F are directly bit-accessible using the SBI and CBI
instructions. In these registers, the value of single bits can be checked by using the SBIS
and SBIC instructions.

When using the I/O specific commands IN and OUT, the I/O addresses
0x00-0x3F must be used. When addressing I/O Registers as data space using LD and ST
instructions, 0x20 must be added to these addresses. The device is a complex
microcontroller with more peripheral units than can be supported within the 64 location
reserved in Opcode for the IN and OUT instructions. For the Extended I/O space from
0x60..0xFF in SRAM, only the ST/STS/STD and LD/LDS/LDD instructions can be used.

LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen is an electronic display module and find a
wide range of applications. A 16x2 LCD display is very basic module and is very
commonly used in various devices and circuits. These modules are preferred over seven
segments and other multi segment LEDs. The reasons being: LCDs are economical;
easily programmable; have no limitation of displaying special & even custom
characters (unlike in seven segments), animations and so on.

A 16x2 LCD means it can display 16 characters per line and there are 2 such lines.
In this LCD each character is displayed in 5x7 pixel matrix. This LCD has two registers,
namely, Command and Data.

The command register stores the command instructions given to the LCD. A
command is an instruction given to LCD to do a predefined task like initializing it,
clearing its screen, setting the cursor position, controlling display etc. The data register
stores the data to be displayed on the LCD. The data is the ASCII value of the character
to be displayed on the LCD.

satisfactorily as per the design. The project work was developed after conducting a
number of experiments before finalizing the work, this reduced the bottle necks and we
did not face much difficulty in the final integration process.

In general the entire development of the project work was educative and we could
gain a lot of experience by way of doing the project practically. We could understand the
practical constraints of developing such systems which of which we have studied by way
