MAXIMUM DEMAND CONTROLLER

FOR HT INDUSTRY
BLOCK DIAGRAM
 PIC MICROCONTROLLER

• To perform the various operations and

conversions required to switch, control and
monitor the devices a processor is needed.
Advantages:
• industrial advantages in power electronics like
built in ADC, RAM, ROM, ports, USART, DAC.
• This leads to lesser space occupation by the
circuit and also the speed of embedded controllers
are more compared to other processors.
• The embedded controller selected for this project
is PIC16F877A due to its various features

 INDUSTRIAL FEATURES:

• Built in ADC of multi channel with 10-bit

accuracy- used to acquire voltage, current,
temperature, and power.
• Built in reference facility and external
reference provision- to fix a bandwidth of
reference voltage.
• Built - in ports-to drive the relays and getting
feedback from the relays.
 Architecture

Microcontrollers have built-in peripherals, they are:

• Memory
– Program Memory (Eg. PROM, Flash memory)
– Data Memory (Eg. RAM, EEROM)
• I/O Ports
• ADC
• Timers
• USART
• Interrupt Controllers
• PWM / Capture
 General Features:

• High Performance RISC CPU

• Operating Speed- 9600-baud rate
• Power On Reset
• Watch Dog Timer
• Low Power Consumption
• High Sink / Source Current
• No need of driver circuit.
• Compatible to all computer language No need of
DLL (Dynamic Link Library).
Relay drivers
This is to obtain logical data’s from
embedded controller and amplify the signals up
to 60mA from 5mA.ULN 2003 a darlington pair 7
pack transistor modules will be used for this. This
chip contains seven NPN transistors inside.
Collects logical data and switching the relays with
back EMF protection is the purpose of this chip.
Relays:
This is a electromagnetic alteration type of
component .this is a electrically operated switch
creates galvanic isolation between two circuits.
the objective of this component is to create
isolation between embedded circuit and wireless
circuit.
 VISUAL BASIC
• In Visual Basic 6.0, the “ Visual “ part refers to
the method used to create the Graphical User
Interface (GUI). Rather than writing numerous
lines of code to describe the appearance and
location of interface elements, we simply add Pre
built Objects in the required place on the screen.
• The “ Basic “ part refers to the BASIC (Beginners
All- purpose Symbolic Instruction Code)
language, a language used by more programmers
than any other language in the History of
Computing.
FEATURES
• Improved performance
• A data base creation tool
• Visual data access with the data control so that it
is possible to create data browsing application
without writing code.
• A new OLE (object linking and embedding)
control that allows in place editing.
• A collection of common dialog boxes that
streamline common user interface tasks.
• The ability to create pop-up menus anywhere in
the application
