INTRODUCTION
The coin-based mobile battery chargers are designed to solve the problem, only the
user has to plug the mobile phone into one of the adapters and insert a coin; the
phone will then be given a micro-pulse for charging. It does not bring a mobile
from 'dead' to fully charged state. The charging capacity of the mobile is designed
with the help of pre defined values. It is, of course, possible to continue charging
the mobile by inserting more coins. This compact and lightweight product is
designed to cater for the growing number of rural mobile users worldwide. The
source for charging is obtained from direct power grid.
This Coin based Mobile Charger is very useful to people who are all using mobile
phone without charging condition in public places. The coin-based cell phone
charger is very useful for that person to use a coin for the mobile charge carriers.
The main merits of the coin-based cell phone charger, Simple and hand efficient.
The circuit diagram for the Coin Based Prepaid charger is as follows-
The objective of the Coin based prepaid charger is that insert the coin and charge
your mobile phone in public places. In this Coin based prepaid charger the first
block is power supply in which the input is 230V AC which is step down using the
transformer (0-12) 500mA .The 12V ac input is fed to the bridge diode to gives
12V pulsating DC. This DC voltage is filtered through the capacitor to remove the
ripples. The filtered DC is fed to 7805 regulator to fetch +5v regulated output.

For an electron to jump from a lower orbital to a higher orbital, something has to
boost its energy level. Conversely, an electron releases energy when it drops from
a higher orbital to a lower one. This energy is released in the form of a photon. A
greater energy drop releases a
As a result, the photon's frequency is so low that it is invisible to the human eye --
it is in the infrared portion of the light spectrum. This isn't necessarily a bad thing,
of course: Infrared LEDs are ideal for remote controls, among other things.
Visible light-emitting diodes (VLEDs), such as the ones that light up numbers in a
digital clock, are made of materials characterized by a wider gap between the
conduction band and the lower orbital. The size of the gap determines the
frequency of the photon -- in other words, it determines the color of the light.
LED Advantages
While all diodes release light, most don't do it very effectively. In an ordinary
diode, the semiconductor material itself ends up absorbing a lot of the light energy.
LEDs are specially constructed to release a large number of photons outward.
Additionally, they are housed in a plastic bulb that concentrates the light in a
particular direction. As you can see in the diagram, most of the light from the diode
bounces off the sides of the bulb, traveling on through the rounded end.
LEDs have several advantages over conventional incandescent lamps. For one
thing, they don't have a filament that will burn out, so they last much longer.
Additionally, their small plastic bulb makes them a lot more durable. They also fit
more easily into modern electronic circuits.
5.2.3 RESISTORS -
Basically the resistor can be split in to the following four parts from the
construction viewpoint.
Base
Resistance element
Terminals
Protective means.
The following characteristics are inherent in all resistors and may be controlled by
design considerations and choice of material i.e. Temperature co–efficient of
resistance, Voltage co–efficient of resistance, high frequency characteristics, power
rating, tolerance & voltage rating of resistors.
Fixed
Semi variable
Variable resistor.
They are also classified according to the material from which they are made. The
typical resistor is made of either carbon film or metal film. There are other types as
well, but these are the most common.
Fixed Resistors:-
A fixed resistor is one in which the value of its resistance cannot change.
This is the most general purpose, cheap resistor. Usually the tolerance of the
resistance value is ±5%. Power ratings of 1/8W, 1/4W and 1/2W are frequently
used. Carbon film resistors have a disadvantage; they tend to be electrically noisy.
Metal film resistors are recommended for use in analog circuits. However, I have
never experienced any problems with this noise.

Design of capacitor depends on the proper dielectric material with particular type
of application. The dielectric material used for capacitors may be grouped in
various classes like Mica, Glass, air, ceramic, paper, Aluminum, electrolyte etc.
The value of capacitance never remains constant. It changes with temperature,
frequency and aging.
The negative lead is generally not shown on the schematic, but may be marked on
the capacitor with a bar or "-" symbol. Polarized capacitors are generally
electrolytes, meaning that the dielectric is made up of a thin layer of oxide formed
on the aluminum or tantalum foil conductor.
The fundamental relation for the capacitance between two flat plates separated by a
dielectric material is given by:-
C=0.08854KA/D

C= capacitance in pf.

Relay Construction
Relays are amazingly simple devices. There are four parts in every relay:
Electromagnet
Armature that can be attracted by the electromagnet
Spring
Set of electrical contacts
In this figure, you can see that a relay consists of two separate and
completely independent circuits. The first is at the bottom and drives the
electromagnet. In this circuit, a switch is controlling power to the electromagnet.
When the switch is on, the electromagnet is on, and it attracts the armature (blue).
The armature is acting as a switch in the second circuit. When the electromagnet is
energized, the armature completes the second circuit and the light is on. When the
electromagnet is not energized, the spring pulls the armature away and the circuit
is not complete. In that case, the light is dark.
When you purchase relays, you generally have control over several
variables:
The voltage and current that is needed to activate the armature
The maximum voltage and current that can run through the armature
and the armature contacts
The number of armatures (generally one or two)
The number of contacts for the armature (generally one or two -- the
relay shown here has two, one of which is unused)
Whether the contact (if only one contact is provided) is normally
open (NO) or normally closed (NC)
Relay Applications-
In general, the point of a relay is to use a small amount of power in the
electromagnet -- coming, say, from a small dashboard switch or a low-power
electronic circuit -- to move an armature that is able to switch a much larger
amount of power. For example, you might want the electromagnet to energize
using 5 volts and 50 milliamps (250 mill watts), while the armature can support
120V AC at 2 amps (240 watts).

Capacitive filter is used in this project. It removes the ripples from the output of
rectifier and smoothens the D.C. Output received from this filter is constant until
the mains voltage and load is maintained constant. However, if either of the two is
varied, D.C. voltage received at this point changes. Therefore a regulator is applied
at the output stage.
CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
This thin intrinsic region is called depletion layer, since its depleted of charge (see
diagram above) and hence offers high resistance. Its this depletion region that
prevents the further diffusion of majority carriers. In physical terms the size of he
depletion layer is very thin.
Reverse Bias-
In reverse bias the P-type region is connected to negative voltage and N-type is
connected to positive terminal as shown above. In this condition the holes in P-
type gets filled by electrons from the battery / cell (in other words the holes get
sucked out of the diode).So the diode gets depleted of charge. So initially the
depletion layer widens (see image above) and it occupies the entire diode. The
resistance offered by the diode is very huge. The current that flows in reverse bias
is only due to minority charge which is in nano amperes in silicon and micro
amperes in high power silicon and germanium diodes.
Forward Bias-
In forward bias the P-Region of the diode is connected with the positive terminal
of the battery and N-region is connected with the negative region. During the
forward bias the following process occurs. The positive of the battery pumps more
holes into the P-region of the diode. The negative terminal pumps electrons into
the N-region. The excess of charge in P and N region will apply pressure on the
depletion region and will make it shrink. As the voltage increases the depletion
layer will become thinner and thinner and hence diode will offer lesser and lesser
resistance. Since the resistance decreases the current will increase (though not
proportional) to the voltage.
At one particular voltage level Vf called the threshold / firing / cut-off voltage the
depletion layer disappears (overwhelmed by the charge) and hence from this point
on the diode starts to conduct very easily.
The measuring distance range from 1mm to 8mm, and the central point is about
2.5mm. There is also an on-board potentiometer to adjust the sensitivity.
The infrared diode will emmitting the infrared continutelly when the module
connect to the power, when the emitted infrared light has not been reflected or the
strength is not big enough,the triode will in the off state, at this time, D0 output
logic LOW and the signal indicate LED off.

FEATURES
The most common type of transistor is a bipolar junction transistor. This is made
up of three layers of a semi-conductor material in a sandwich. In one configuration
the outer two layers have extra electrons, and the middle layer has electrons
missing (holes). In the other configuration the two outer layers have the holes and
the middle layer has the extra electrons.
Layers with extra electrons are called N-Type, those with electrons missing called
P-Type. Therefore the bipolar junction transistors are more commonly known as
PNP transistors and NPN transistors respectively.
Bipolar junction transistors are typically made of silicon and so they are very
cheap to produce and purchase.
A bipolar junction transistor has three terminals - Base, Collector, and Emitter
corresponding to the three semi-conductor layers of the transistor. The weak input
current is applied to the inner (base) layer. When there is a small change in the
current or voltage at the inner semiconductor layer (base), a rapid and far larger
change in current takes place throughout the whole transistor.
The illustration shows pipework with three openings B (Base), C (Collector), and
E (Emitter). The reservoir of water at C is the supply voltage which is prevented
from getting though to E by a plunger. If water is poured into B, it pushes up the
plunger letting lots of water flow from C to E. If even more water is poured into B,
the plunger moves higher, and the flow of water from C to E increases.
Therefore, a small amount of water poured into B leads to a large volume of water
flowing from C to E. Returning to electricity and transistors, a small input current
of electricity to the Base leads to a large current flow of electricity from the
Collector to the Emitter.
Transistor Gain
Looking at the water analogy again, if it takes 1 litre of water per minute poured
into B to control 100 litres of water per minute flowing from C to E, then the Gain
(or amplification factor) is 100. A real transistor with a gain of 100 can control
100mA of current from Collector to Emitter with an input current to the Base of
just 1mA.
Pictured above is a very simple circuit which demonstrates the use of transistors.
When a finger is placed in the circuit where shown, a tiny current of around 0.1mA
flows (assuming a finger resistance of 50,000 Ohms). This is nowhere near enough
to light the LED which needs at least 10mA. However the tiny current is applied to
the Base of the transistor where it is boosted by a factor (gain) of around 100 times
and the LED lights!
Rectifier devices
Before the development of silicon semiconductor rectifiers, vacuum tube diodes
and copper(I) oxide or selenium rectifier stacks were used. With the introduction of
semiconductor electronics, vacuum tube rectifiers became obsolete, except for
some enthusiasts of vacuum tube audio equipment. For power rectification from
very low to very high current, semiconductor diodes of various types (junction
diodes, Schottky diodes, etc.) are widely used.
Half-wave rectification
In half wave rectification of a single-phase supply, either the positive or negative
half of the AC wave is passed, while the other half is blocked. Because only one
half of the input waveform reaches the output, mean voltage is lower. Half-wave
rectification requires a single diode in a single-phase supply, or three in a three-
phase supply. Rectifiers yield a unidirectional but pulsating direct current; half-
wave rectifiers produce far more ripple than full-wave rectifiers, and much more
filtering is needed to eliminate harmonics of the AC frequency from the output.
A real rectifier will have a characteristic which drops part of the input voltage (a
voltage drop, for silicon devices, of typically 0.7 volts plus an equivalent
resistance, in general non-linear), and at high frequencies will distort waveforms in
other ways; unlike an ideal rectifier, it will dissipate power.
Full-wave rectification
A full-wave rectifier converts the whole of the input waveform to one of constant
polarity (positive or negative) at its output. Full-wave rectification converts both
polarities of the input waveform to DC (direct current), and yields a higher mean
output voltage. Two diodes and a center tapped transformer, or four diodes in a
bridge configuration and any AC source (including a transformer without center
tap), are needed. Single semiconductor diodes, double diodes with common
cathode or common anode, and four-diode bridges, are manufactured as single
components.
Sizing of the capacitor represents a tradeoff. For a given load, a larger capacitor
will reduce ripple but will cost more and will create higher peak currents in the
transformer secondary and in the supply feeding it. The peak current is set in
principle by the rate of rise of the supply voltage on the rising edge of the
incoming sine-wave, but in practice it is reduced by the resistance of the
transformer windings. In extreme cases where many rectifiers are loaded onto a
To limit ripple to a specified value the required capacitor size is proportional to the
load current and inversely proportional to the supply frequency and the number of
output peaks of the rectifier per input cycle. The load current and the supply
frequency are generally outside the control of the designer of the rectifier system
but the number of peaks per input cycle can be affected by the choice of rectifier
design.
To further reduce ripple, a capacitor-input filter can be used. This complements the
reservoir capacitor with a choke (inductor) and a second filter capacitor, so that a
steadier DC output can be obtained across the terminals of the filter capacitor.
For making printed circuit board (PCB) for small circuits we need
First of all prepare the layout of the circuit using any PCB schematic
drawing software (e.g.- Dip Trace, Express PCB, Eagle, Pspice,ect).Or by hand.
Print the layout on an ordinary paper. After preparing the layout, cut the clad
board according to the size of your layout. Transform the layout to the clad board.
This can be done by several methods. One method is by drawing the circuit layout
exactly on clad board using an OHP marker. This is the simplest method for small
circuits. For this, draw the circuit layout on clad board using carbon paper and
pencil. Draw the layout using an OHP marker above the sketch layout. Ensure that
hole positions are at right positions.
For etching process we need ferric chloride (Fe Cl 2) solution. About 100 ml
of tap water should be heated to 85 degree Celsius and 30-50 grams of ferric
chloride added to it. The mixture should be thoroughly stirred, and a few drops of
hydrochloric acid (HCl) may be added optionally to speed up the process.
Now the PCB should be scrubbled clean until a shiny finish is obtained.
The PCB may be tin-plated using an ordinary 35W soldering rod along with solder
core.
Note:- Before beginning we should roughly clean the surface of the clad board.
The edges of the PCB should not have any tracks as these areas are usually used to
transport the PCB from one process to another process by using a conveyor belt.
These edges are places where the possibility of scratches and cracking of the PCB
happens. The recommended areas that should not have any track is as shown in the
diagram below assuming a hole diameter of 4 mm which is used to mount a PCB.
For non main voltages, IPC recommend the electrical clearance between adjacent
tracks. It is important to know the maximum difference in voltage that are applied
on the adjacent tracks of a PCB. The electrical clearance specs of IPC standard is
as shown below for various condition of the PCB. Coating the PCB will help to
reduce the requirements of the track clearance. However, the quality of the coating
as well as the material used are critical to ensure that these requirements are met.
Again, it is always advisable to increase the clearance to cater for the variations of
the PCB processes.
