Make Digital Speed Meter use PIC Microcontroller with code
Welcome to MINA TECHNOLOGY.
In this tutorial we will learn how to make Speed Meter use PIC Microcontroller. The Speed Meter measure the Wheel rotation and it convert to velocity. The display show the value of velocity. Here I am use PIC16F877A Microcontroller and Mikro C compiler for code editing. You can watch the video or read the written tutorial below.
The Speed Meter use measure the velocity of vehicles. It convert the velocity in Kilometer Per Hour(Km/h). 60Km/h it means the vechicle beyond 60Km in per hour. The Speed Meter measure the Wheel rotation and calculation the velocity.
Calculation:
Assume,
radius r = 2 cm
circumference = 2rpai
= 2*2*3.1416 // pai value = 3.1416
=12.5664 cm
If the Wheel rotation is 1 than it beyond 12.57cm. When the Wheel one rotation per second than the velocity of Wheel is 12.57cm/s. If I conver the value in per hour the velocity is (3600*12.57)/100000 = 0.4525Km/h.
Calculation value:
When ,
The Wheel one rotation than IR sensor generate 4 pulses. The Timer0 module count those pulses. If Timer0 module count 8 pulses than the Wheel rotate 2(8/4) rotation. The MCU measure the pulse timer.
Time1 module generate 250ms delay interrupt. but we need 1second delay interrupt. Here I am occur 4interrrut at time. Total it generate 250*4 = 1second delay interrupt. The MCU measure Timer0 value at 1second and than clear the Timer0 module.
The IR Sensor count the rotation and it convert in pulses.
I am use here Timer Calculator for generate 250ms delay interrupt.
