 MAIN APPLICATION OF PROJECT

The aim of the project is to control home appliances

like Television, Refrigerator, and Lights and other
home electrical appliances using a personal computer.

In this project a PC is interfaced with a micro-controller

and it is connected to relays to which the appliances
which are to be controlled are connected.

The micro-controller controls the relays for switching

the appliances, ON or OFF. Pre-defined symbols are sent
to the Microcontroller through RS232 cable

Automation

Home automation deals with providing a

network in the house which links
 computers & peripheral equipment.
 smart chip bearing household appliances
like dish washers, washing machines,
microwaves and other electrical
appliances.
 sub-systems like Heating, Ventilation, Air-
conditioning (HVAC), and security
systems.

ADVANTAGES OF HOME AUTOMATION

 Flexibility & Convenience

 Security

 Cost Saving

 Remote Control
 EMBEDDED SYSTEM

An embedded system can be defined as a computing

device that does a specific focused job.

Appliances such as the air-conditioner, VCD player,

DVD player, printer, fax machine, mobile phone etc. are
examples of embedded systems.

Each of these appliances will have a processor and

special hardware to meet the specific requirement of the
application along with the embedded software that is
executed by the processor for meeting that specific
requirement.
MICROCONTROLLER VS MICROPROCESSOR

Microprocessors and microcontrollers are widely used

in embedded systems products.

Microcontroller is a programmable device.

A microcontroller has a CPU in addition to a fixed

amount of RAM, ROM, I/O ports and a timer
embedded all on a single chip.

The fixed amount of on-chip ROM, RAM and number

of I/O ports in microcontrollers makes them ideal for
many applications in which cost and space are critical.
 INTERNAL ARCHITECTURE
INTERNAL ARCHITECTURE
All upgraded microcontrollers use one of two basic design models
called Harvard and von-Neumann architecture

VON-NEUMANN
VON-NEUMANNARCHITECTURE
ARCHITECTURE
Microcontrollers using this architecture have only one memory block
and one 8-bit data bus.

As all data are exchanged by using these 8 lines, this bus is

overloaded and communication itself is very slow and inefficient

The CPU can either read an instruction or read/write

data from/to the memory.

Both cannot occur at the same time since the

instructions and data use the same bus system
 HARVARD
HARVARDARCHITECTURE
ARCHITECTURE

Microcontrollers using this architecture have two different data buses.

One is 8-bit wide and connects CPU to RAM memory.

Another one consists of several lines (12, 14 or 16) and connects CPU to ROM
memory
Accordingly, the CPU can read an instruction and perform a data memory
access at the same time

 TMOD Register:

TMOD is dedicated solely to the two timers (T0 & T1).

The timer mode SFR is used to configure the mode of operation of each of the two
timers.

Using this SFR your program may configure each timer to be a 16-bit timer, or 13
bit timer, 8-bit auto reload timer,
or two separate timers.

It can consider as two duplicate 4-bit registers, each of which controls the action of
one of the timers.

The timer control SFR is used to configure and modify the way in
which the 8051’s two timers operate.

This SFR controls whether each of the two timers is running or

stopped and contains a flag to indicate that each timer has
overflowed. Additionally, some non-timer related bits are located
in TCON SFR.

These bits are used to configure the way in which the external
interrupt flags are activated, which are set when an external
interrupt occurs.
 CONCLUSION
By using this project we control all the Electrical
appliances of Home using Personal Computer via RS232 as
the communication medium between pc
and controller.

We are controlling the devices like light and fan and etc by sending
signals from the pc to controller.

This project gives exact concept of interfacing a high voltage

electrical device or DC / AC motor to
high sensitive personal computer system.
