- 3. ABSTARCT The aim of developing this project is to control the speed of DC motor. The main advantage in using a DC motor is that the Speed-Torque relationship can be varied to almost any useful form. To achieve the speed control an electronic technique called Pulse Width Modulation is used which generates High and Low pulses. These pulses vary the speed in the motor. For the generation of these pulses a microcontroller (AT89c51) is used. As a microcontroller is used setting the speed ranges as per the requirement is easy which is done by changing the duty cycles time period in the program. This project is practical and highly feasible in economic point of view, and has an advantage of running motors of higher ratings. This project gives a reliable, durable, accurate and efficient way of speed control of a DC motor.

- 5. INTRODUCTION DC MOTOR The device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy is called as a motor. The motor that utilizes a DC supply to produce mechanical output is DC Motor. The advantages of using these types of motors over conventionally used AC motors are stated below. • DC motors have higher controller efficiency. • DC motors have typical 98% efficiency. • DC motors have better overload and peak voltage characteristics. • The main advantage of using these DC motors ids that the speed- torque characteristics can be varied to almost any useful form. As a result of all these advantages these motors have a wide range of applications in places where constant speed is to be maintained at varying loads. Conveyor belts, elevators, cranes, ski lifts, extruders, mixers, sewing machines are few such applications where DC motors are used. So controlling the speed of a DC motor is a purposeful and required place to work on. The various types of DC motors are
- 6. • Series field wound type • Shunt field wound type • Compound field wound type For all these types of DC motor common methods of speed controls. Speed control methods in a DC motor: The motor speed can be controlled by controlling armature voltage and armature current. It is obvious that speed control is possible by varying •Flux per pole ,Φ (Flux control) •resistance Ra of armature circuit (Rheostatic Control) •applied voltage V (Voltage Control) The above methods have some demerits like a large amount of power is wasted in the controller resistance. Hence, efficiency is decreased. It needs expensive arrangement for dissipation of heat produced in the controller resistance. It gives speeds below the normal speed. By these data that are acquainted we can draw a conclusion that these electric and electromechanical methods are less adaptive so electronic techniques are used for speed control. These methods provide higher efficiency, greater reliability, quick response, higher efficiency. One such technique is Pulse Width Modulation. We apply this technique in our project so as to control the speed of the DC motor.
- 7. PWM Pulse width modulation (PWM) is a method for binary signals generation, which has 2 signal periods (high and low). The width (W) of each pulse varies between 0 and the period (T). The main principle is control of power by varying the duty cycle. Here the conduction time to the load is controlled. Let for a time t1, the input voltage appears across the load i.e. ON state and for t2 time the voltage across the load is zero. • The average voltage at output is given by Va = 1/T ∫ vodt = t1/T Vs = ft1 Vs = kVs • the average load current Ia = Va/R = kVs/R where, T is the total time period =t1+t2, k = t1/T is the duty cycle. • The rms value of output voltage is V0 = ( i/T ∫ V0 2 dt ) ½ = k Vs • The output power and is given by Pi = 1/T ∫v0idt = 1/T ∫ v0 2 /R dt = kVs 2 /R
- 8. • The duty cycle can be varied from 0 to 1 by varying t1, T or f. Therefore, the output voltage V0 can be varied from 0 to Vs by controlling k, and the power flow can be controlled. • As the time t1 changes the width of pulse is varied and this type of control is called pulse width modulation (PWM) control. For better understanding of PWM these diagrammatic representations can be used. These figures represent the waveforms obtained as output at different voltage requirements. High Speed Signal (90%): The green part of the signal represents the ON time and the white part of it represents time when it is not receiving any voltage. Signal with half voltage (50%):
- 9. Signal with low voltage (10%): Advantages of PWM : The main advantage of PWM is that power loss in the switching devices is very low. When a switch is off there is practically no current, and when it is on, there is almost no voltage drop across the switch. Power loss, being the product of voltage and current, is thus in both cases close to zero. PWM works also well with digital controls, which, because of their on/off nature, can easily set the needed duty cycle. Using pulse width modulation has several advantages over analog control. Using PWM to dim a lamp would produce less heat than an analog control that converts some of the current to heat. Also, if you use PWM, the entire control circuit can be digital, eliminating the need for digital-to-analog converters. Using digital control lines will reduce the susceptibility of your circuit to interference. Finally, motors may be able to operate at lower speeds if you control them with PWM. When you use an analog current to control a motor, it will not produce significant torque at low speeds. The magnetic field created by the small current will be too weak to turn the rotor. On the other hand, a PWM current can create short pulses of magnetic flux at full strength, which can turn the rotor at extremely slow speeds. The technology has become more pervasive as low cost microcontrollers incorporate PWM control. Microcontrollers offer simple
- 10. commands to vary the duty cycle and frequencies of the PWM control signal. PWM is also used in communications to take advantage of the higher immunity to noise provided by digital signals. So by getting these pulses generated by a microcontroller we can increase the efficiency, accuracy and thus the reliability of the system. The most commonly used microcontroller is 8051 that has been used in this project for production of pulses. MICROCONTROLLER A microcontroller (abbreviated µC, uC or MCU) is a small computer on a single integrated circuit containing a processor core, memory, and programmable input/output peripherals. This programmes memory in the form of NOR flash or OTP ROM is also often included on chip, as well as a typically small amount of RAM. Advantages of Microcontroller Microcontrollers are widely used in today’s control systems for the following reasons: • Design and Simulation – Because you are programming with software, detailed simulations may be performed in advance to assure correctness of code and system performance. • Flexibility – Ability to reprogram using Flash, EEPROM or EPROM allows straightforward changes in the control law used. • High Integration – Most microcontrollers are essentially single chip computers with on-chip processing, memory, and I/O. Some contain peripherals for serial communication and reading analog signals (with an
- 11. analog-to-digital converter or ADC). This differentiates a microcontroller from a microprocessor. Microprocessors require that this functionality be provided by added components. • Cost – Cost savings come from several locations. Development costs are greatly decreased because of the design/flexibility advantages mentioned previously. Because so many components are included on one IC, board area and component savings are often evident as well. • Easy to Use – Just program and go! While in the past, programming has often involved tedious assembly code, today C compilers are available for most microcontrollers. Microcontrollers often only require a single 5V supply as well which makes them easier to power and use. 8051 is also one such microcontroller with certain features like • An 8-bit ALU. • Harvard memory architecture – the external program memory and data memory have separate address spaces from 0x0000 and separate controlsignal(s). • 8-bit internal data bus width and 16-bit internal address bus – Harvard memory architecture • CISC (Complex Instruction Set Computer) • Special function registers (SFRs) –PSW(processor status word), A (accumulator),B register, SP (stack pointer) and registers for serial IOs, timers, ports and interrupt handler. • on-chip RAM of 128 bytes. • 32 bytes of RAM also used as four banks of registers. Each register-set thus eight registers. • External data/stack memory can be added upto 64 kB in most of the version. In certain 8051 enhancements, this limit enhanced to 16 MB. After acquiring the data about microcontroller, DC motor and PWM technique we can get into designing a circuit that uses these units in controlling the speed of a DC motor

- 16. The components are connect on a Printed Circuit Board as per the given connection details in the circuit diagram. The functioning of the circuit can be explained with respect to the action format that occurs in the circuit. As the supply is switched ON and both the switches are open the switching supplies ideally 5V is given to the microcontroller. Suppose if the any of the switch is closed the supply gets directly shorted with the ground. This indicates the microcontroller about the switch positions and thus generates the signal as per the given program for the respective switches position. The transistor used allows current to conduct through it when ever a positive pulse is given at its base that is given by the microcontroller inaccordance with the program. As the transistor is forward biased the supply that is used to run the motor gets connected with the motor terminals and motor starts running. As soon as the 0 voltage is encountered the NPN transistor used goes into reverse bias and stops its conduction so the motor’s armature supply gets disconnected till the base current is 0 volts. By this we can deduce that the speed of the motor is directly dependent on the supply given by microcontroller to the base which indeed depends on the program written. So the speeds of working of the circuit depends on the number of switches used, for instance in the above circuit two switches are used so the number of speed levels are 22 = 4. So the number of speed levels for X switches will be 2X . So the speed of the motor can be varied in steps.
