HARDWARE DESIGN
Introduction
In this chapter we are going to cover all parts of Automatic station indicator system for
railways in detailed manner and their functions in brief. Here we are more interested about the
Microcontroller since it is the heart of the project. So the complete architecture is explained and
also significance of the Microcontroller.
Hardware Tools:
1. Microcontroller AT89S52.2. RF receiver and transmitter3. RF encoder and decoder.4. LCD
MICRO CONTROLLER (AT89S51)
Introduction
A Micro controller consists of a powerful CPU tightly coupled with memory, various I/O
interfaces such as serial port, parallel port timer or counter, interrupt controller, data acquisition
interfaces-Analog to Digital converter, Digital to Analog converter, integrated on to a single
silicon chip.
If a system is developed with a microprocessor, the designer has to go for external
memory such as RAM, ROM, EPROM and peripherals. But controller is provided all these
facilities on a single chip. Development of a Micro controller reduces PCB size and cost of
design.

One of the major differences between a Microprocessor and a Micro controller is that a
controller often deals with bits not bytes as in the real world application.
Intel has introduced a family of Micro controllers called the MCS-51.

Description
The AT89S51 is a low-power, high-performance CMOS 8-bit microcontroller with 4K bytes of in-
system programmable Flash memory. The device is manufactured using Atmels high-density
nonvolatile memory technology and is compatible with the industry- standard 80C51 instruction set
and pinout. The on-chip Flash allows the program memory to be reprogrammed in-system or by a
conventional nonvolatile memory programmer. By combining a versatile 8-bit CPU with in-system
programmable Flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel AT89S51 is a powerful microcontroller which
provides a highly-flexible and cost-effective solution to many embedded control applications.

Pin Description
VCC - Supply voltage.
GND - Ground.
Port 0:
Port 0 is an 8-bit open drain bidirectional I/O port. As an output port, each pin can sink eight
TTL inputs. When 1s are written to port 0 pins, the pins can be used as high-impedance inputs. Port 0
can also be configured to be the multiplexed low-order address/data bus during accesses to external

program and data memory. In this mode, P0 has internal pull-ups. Port 0 also receives the code bytes
during Flash programming and outputs the code bytes during program verification. External pull-ups
are required during program verification.
Port 1:
Port 1 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pull-ups. The Port 1 output buffers can
sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are written to Port 1 pins, they are pulled high by the internal
pull-ups and can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 1 pins that are externally being pulled low will
source current (IIL) because of the internal pull-ups. Port 1 also receives the low-order address bytes
during Flash programming and verification.
Port 2:
Port 2 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pull-ups. The Port 2 output buffers can
sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are written to Port 2 pins, they are pulled high by the internal
pull-ups and can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 2 pins that are externally being pulled low will
source current (IIL) because of the internal pull-ups. Port 2 also receives the high-order address bits
and some control signals during Flash programming and verification.
Port 3:
-
7/27/2019 4 HARDWARE COMPONENTS.docx
6/44
Port 3 is an 8-bit bidirectional I/O port with internal pull-ups. The Port 3 output buffers can
sink/source four TTL inputs. When 1s are written to Port 3 pins, they are pulled high by the internal
pull-ups and can be used as inputs. As inputs, Port 3 pins that are externally being pulled low will
source current (IIL) because of the pull-ups. Port 3 receives some control signals for Flash
programming and verification. Port 3 also serves the functions of various special features of the
AT89S51, as shown in the following table.
RST:
Reset input. A high on this pin for two machine cycles while the oscillator is running resets the
device. This pin drives High for 98 oscillator periods after the Watchdog times out. The DISRTO bit
in SFR AUXR (address 8EH) can be used to disable this feature. In the default state of bit DISRTO,
the RESET HIGH out feature is enabled.
ALE/PROG:
Address Latch Enable (ALE) is an output pulse for latching the low byte of the address during
accesses to external memory. This pin is also the program pulse input (PROG) during Flash
programming. In normal operation, ALE is emitted at a constant rate of 1/6 the oscillator frequency
-
7/27/2019 4 HARDWARE COMPONENTS.docx
7/44
and may be used for external timing or clocking purposes. Note, however, that one ALE pulse is
skipped during each access to external data memory. If desired, ALE operation can be disabled by
setting bit 0 of SFR location 8EH. With the bit set, ALE is active only during a MOVX or MOVC
instruction. Otherwise, the pin is weakly pulled high. Setting the ALE-disable bit has no effect if the
microcontroller is in external execution mode.
PSEN:
Program Store Enable (PSEN) is the read strobe to external program memory. When the
AT89S51 is executing code from external program memory, PSEN is activated twice each machine
cycle, except that two PSEN activations are skipped during each access to external data memory.
EA/VPP:
External Access Enable. EA must be strapped to GND in order to enable the device to fetch
code from external program memory locations starting at 0000H up to FFFFH. Note, however, that if
lock bit 1 is programmed, EA will be internally latched on reset. EA should be strapped to VCC for
internal program executions. This pin also receives the 12-volt programming enable voltage (VPP)
during Flash programming.
XTAL1:
Input to the inverting oscillator amplifier and input to the internal clock operating circuit.
XTAL2:
Output from the inverting oscillator amplifier.
Oscillator Characteristics:
XTAL1 and XTAL2 are the input and output, respectively, of an inverting amplifier
which can be configured for use as an on-chip oscillator, as shown in Figs 6.2.3. Either a quartz
crystal or ceramic resonator may be used. To drive the device from an external clock source,
-
7/27/2019 4 HARDWARE COMPONENTS.docx
8/44
XTAL2 should be left unconnected while XTAL1 is driven as shown in Figure 6.2.4.There are
no requirements on the duty cycle of the external clock signal, since the input to the internal
clocking circuitry is through a divide-by-two flip-flop, but minimum and maximum voltage high
and low time specifications must be observed.

REGULATED POWER SUPPLY
The power supplies are designed to convert high voltage AC mains electricity to a
suitable low voltage supply for electronics circuits and other devices. A RPS (Regulated Power
Supply) is the Power Supply with Rectification, Filtering and Regulation being done on the AC
mains to get a Regulated power supply for Microcontroller and for the other devices being
interfaced to it.
A power supply can by broken down into a series of blocks, each of which performs aparticular function. A d.c power supply which maintains the output voltage constant irrespective
of a.c mains fluctuations or load variations is known as Regulated D.C Power Supply
For example a 5V regulated power supply system as shown below:

Transformer:
A transformer is an electrical device which is used to convert electrical power from one
Electrical circuit to another without change in frequency.
Transformers convert AC electricity from one voltage to another with little loss of
power. Transformers work only with AC and this is one of the reasons why mains electricity is
AC. Step-up transformers increase in output voltage, step-down transformers decrease in output
voltage. Most power supplies use a step-down transformer to reduce the dangerously high mains
voltage to a safer low voltage. The input coil is called the primary and the output coil is called
the secondary. There is no electrical connection between the two coils; instead they are linked by
an alternating magnetic field created in the soft-iron core of the transformer. The two lines in the
middle of the circuit symbol represent the core. Transformers waste very little power so the
power out is (almost) equal to the power in. Note that as voltage is stepped down current is
stepped up. The ratio of the number of turns on each coil, called the turns ratio, determines the
ratio of the voltages. A step-down transformer has a large number of turns on its primary (input)

coil which is connected to the high voltage mains supply, and a small number of turns on its
secondary (output) coil to give a low output voltage.
An Electrical Transformer
Turns ratio = Vp/ VS = Np/NS
Power Out= Power In
VS X IS=VP X IP
Vp = primary (input) voltage
Np = number of turns on primary coil

RECTIFIER:
A circuit which is used to convert a.c to dc is known as RECTIFIER. The process ofconversion a.c to d.c is called rectification

Full-wave Rectifier:
From the above comparison we came to know that full wave bridge rectifier as more
advantages than the other two rectifiers. So, in our project we are using full wave bridge rectifier
circuit.
Bridge Rectifier:
A bridge rectifier makes use of four diodes in a bridge arrangement to achieve full-
wave rectification. This is a widely used configuration, both with individual diodes wired as
shown and with single component bridges where the diode bridge is wired internally.
A bridge rectifier makes use of four diodes in a bridge arrangement as shown in fig (a) to

Filter:
A Filter is a device which removes the a.c component of rectifier output but allows the
d.c component to reach the load.

7/27/2019 4 HARDWARE COMPONENTS.docx
14/44
Capacitor Filter:
We have seen that the ripple content in the rectified output of half wave rectifier is
121% or that of full-wave or bridge rectifier or bridge rectifier is 48% such high percentages of
ripples is not acceptable for most of the applications. Ripples can be removed by one of the
following methods of filtering.
(a) A capacitor, in parallel to the load, provides an easier by pass for the ripples voltage though
it due to low impedance. At ripple frequency and leave the D.C. to appear at the load.
(b) An inductor, in series with the load, prevents the passage of the ripple current (due to high
impedance at ripple frequency) while allowing the d.c (due to low resistance to d.c).
(c) Various combinations of capacitor and inductor, such as L-section filter section filter,
multiple section filter etc. which make use of both the properties mentioned in (a) and (b) above.
Two cases of capacitor filter, one applied on half wave rectifier and another with full wave
rectifier.
Filtering is performed by a large value electrolytic capacitor connected across the DC
supply to act as a reservoir, supplying current to the output when the varying DC voltage from
the rectifier is falling. The capacitor charges quickly near the peak of the varying DC, and then
discharges as it supplies current to the output. Filtering significantly increases the average DC
voltage to almost the peak value (1.4 RMS value).
To calculate the value of capacitor(C),
C = *3*f*r*Rl
Where,
f = supply frequency,
r = ripple factor,
Rl = load resistance
Note: In our circuit we are using 1000F hence large value of capacitor is placed to
reduce ripples and to improve the DC component.
Regulator:

Voltage regulator ICs is available with fixed (typically 5, 12 and 15V) or variable
output voltages. The maximum current they can pass also rates them. Negative voltage regulators
are available, mainly for use in dual supplies. Most regulators include some automatic protection
from excessive current ('overload protection') and overheating ('thermal protection'). Many of
the fixed voltage regulators ICs have 3 leads and look like power transistors, such as the 7805
+5V 1A regulator shown on the right. The LM7805 is simple to use. You simply connect the
positive lead of your unregulated DC power supply (anything from 9VDC to 24VDC) to the
Input pin, connect the negative lead to the Common pin and then when you turn on the power,
you get a 5 volt supply from the output pin.

78XX:
The Bay Linear LM78XX is integrated linear positive regulator with three terminals. The
LM78XX offer several fixed output voltages making them useful in wide range of applications.
When used as a zener diode/resistor combination replacement, the LM78XX usually results in an
effective output impedance improvement of two orders of magnitude, lower quiescent current.
The LM78XX is available in the TO-252, TO-220 & TO-263packages,

Liquid Crystal Display
Introduction to LCD:
In recent years the LCD is finding widespread use replacing LED s (seven-segment LED or other
multi segment LED s). This is due to the following reasons:
1. The declining prices of LCD s.2. The ability to display numbers, characters and graphics. This is in
contract to LED s, which are limited to numbers and a few characters.
3. Incorporation of a refreshing controller into the LCD, there by relieving the CPU of thetask of refreshing the LCD. In the contrast, the LED must be refreshed by the CPU to
keep displaying the data.
4. Ease of programming for characters and graphics.
USES:
The LCD s used exclusively in watches, calculators and measuring instruments is the
simple seven-segment displays, having a limited amount of numeric data. The recent advances in
technology have resulted in better legibility, more information displaying capability and a wider

temperature range. These have resulted in the LCD s being extensively used in
telecommunications and entertainment electronics. The LCD s has even started replacing the
cathode ray tubes (CRTs) used for the display of text and graphics, and also in small TV
applications.

plate is attached to a metal plate with adhesives.
Fig. 2 shows the oscillating system of a piezoelectric diaphragm. Applying D.C. voltage
between electrodes of a piezoelectric diaphragm causes mechanical distortion due to the
piezoelectric effect. For a misshaped piezoelectric element, the distortion of the piezoelectric
element expands in a radial direction. And the piezoelectric diaphragm bends toward the
direction shown in Fig.2 (a).
-
7/27/2019 4 HARDWARE COMPONENTS.docx
22/44
The metal plate bonded to the piezoelectric element does not expand. Conversely, when
the piezoelectric element shrinks, the piezoelectric diaphragm bends in the direction shown in
Fig.2 (b). Thus, when AC voltage is applied across electrodes, the bending shown in Fig.2 (a)
and Fig.2 (b) is repeated as shown in Fig.2 (c), producing sound waves in the air.
DESIGN PROCEDURES:
In general, man's audible frequency range is about 20 Hz to 20kHz. Frequency ranges of
2kHz to 4kHz are most easily heard. For this reason, most piezoelectric sound components areused in this frequency range, and the resonant frequency (f0) is generally selected in the same
range too. As shown in Fig. 3, the resonant frequency depends on methods used to support the
piezoelectric diaphragm. If piezoelectric diaphragms are of the same shape, their values will
become smaller in the order of (a), (b) and (c).
-
7/27/2019 4 HARDWARE COMPONENTS.docx
23/44
In general, the piezoelectric diaphragm is installed in a cavity to produce high sound
pressure. The resonant frequency (fcav) of the cavity in is obtained from Formula (1)
(Helmholtz's Formula). Since the piezoelectric diaphragm and cavity have proper resonant
frequencies, (f0) and (fcav) respectively, sound pressure in specific frequencies can be increased
and a specific bandwidth can be provided by controlling both positions.
RF transmitter section:
RF transmitters are electronic devices that create continuously varying electric current, encode
sine waves, and broadcast radio waves. RF transmitters use oscillators to create sine waves, the simplest
and smoothest form of continuously varying waves, which contain information such as audio and video.
Modulators encode these sign wives and antennas broadcast them as radio signals. There are several
ways to encode or modulate this information, including amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency
modulation (FM). Radio techniques limit localized interference and noise. With direct sequence spread
spectrum, signals are spread over a large band by multiplexing the signal with a code or signature that
modulates each bit. With frequency hopping spread spectrum, signals move through a narrow set of
channels in a sequential, cyclical, and predetermined pattern.
Selecting RF transmitters requires an understanding of modulation methods such as AM and
FM. On-off key (OOK), the simplest form of modulation, consists of turning the signal on or off.
Amplitude modulation (AM) causes the base band signal to vary the amplitude or height of the carrier
-
7/27/2019 4 HARDWARE COMPONENTS.docx
24/44
wave to create the desired information content. Frequency modulation (FM) causes the instantaneous
frequency of a sine wave carrier to depart from the center frequency by an amount proportional to the
instantaneous value of the modulating signal. Amplitude shift key (ASK) transmits data by varying the
amplitude of the transmitted signal. Frequency shift key (FSK) is a digital modulation scheme using two
or more output frequencies. Phase shift key (PSK) is a digital modulation scheme in which the phase of
the transmitted signal is varied in accordance with the base band data signal.
Additional considerations when selecting RF transmitters include supply voltage, supply current,
RF connectors, special features, and packaging. Some RF transmitters include visual or audible alarms or
LED indicators that signal operating modes such as power on or reception. Other devices attach to
coaxial cables or include a connector or port to which an antenna can be attached. Typically, RFtransmitters that are rated for outdoor use feature a heavy-duty waterproof design. Devices with
internal calibration and a frequency range switch are also available.
RF transmitters are used in a variety of applications and industries. Often, devices that are used
with integrated circuits (ICs) incorporate surface mount technology (SMT), through hole technology
(THT), and flat pack. In the telecommunications industry, RF transmitters are designed to fit in a
metal rack that can be installed in a cabinet. RF transmitters are also used in radios and in electronic
article surveillance systems (EAS) found in retail stores. Inventory management systems use RF
transmitters as an alternative to barcodes.

General Description
The 212 encoders are a series of CMOS LSIs for remote control system applications. They are capable of
encoding information which consists of N address bits and 12_N data bits. Each address/data input can
be set to one of the two logic states. The programmed addresses/data are transmitted together with the
header bits via an RF or an infrared transmission medium upon receipt of a trigger signal. The capability
to select a TE trigger on the HT12E or a DATA trigger on the HT12A further enhances the application
flexibility of the 212 series of encoders. The HT12A additionally provides a 38kHz carrier for infrared
systems.

RF receiver section:
RF receivers are electronic devices that separate radio signals from one another and convert
specific signals into audio, video, or data formats. RF receivers use an antenna to receive transmitted
radio signals and a tuner to separate a specific signal from all of the other signals that the antenna
receives. Detectors or demodulators then extract information that was encoded before transmission.
There are several ways to decode or modulate this information, including amplitude modulation (AM)
and frequency modulation (FM). Radio techniques limit localized interference and noise. With direct
sequence spread spectrum, signals are spread over a large band by multiplexing the signal with a code
or signature that modulates each bit. With frequency hopping spread spectrum, signals move through a
narrow set of channels in a sequential, cyclical, and predetermined pattern.
Selecting RF receivers requires an understanding of modulation methods such as AM
and FM. On-off key (OOK), the simplest form of modulation, consists of turning the signal on or off.
Amplitude modulation (AM) causes the base band signal to vary the amplitude or height of the carrier
wave to create the desired information content. Frequency modulation (FM) causes the instantaneous
frequency of a sine wave carrier to depart from the center frequency by an amount proportional to the
instantaneous value of the modulating signal. Amplitude shift key (ASK) transmits data by varying the
amplitude of the transmitted signal. Frequency shift key (FSK) is a digital modulation scheme using two
or more output frequencies. Phase shift key (PSK) is a digital modulation scheme in which the phase of
the transmitted signal is varied in accordance with the base band data signal.
RF receivers vary in terms of performance specifications such as sensitivity, digital
sampling rate, measurement resolution, operating frequency, and communication interface. Sensitivity
is the minimum input signal required to produce a specified output signal having a specified signal-to-
noise (S/N) ratio. Digital sampling rate is the rate at which samples can be drawn from a digital signal in
kilo samples per second. Measurement resolution is the minimum digital resolution, while operating
frequency is the range of received signals. Communication interface is the method used to output data
to computers. Parallel interfaces include general-purpose interface bus (GPIB), which is also known as
IEEE 488 and HPIB Protocol. Serial interfaces include universal serial bus (USB), RS232, and RS485.

Additional considerations when selecting RF receivers include supply voltage, supply
current, receiver inputs, RF connectors, special features, and packaging. Some RF receivers include visual
or audible alarms or LED indicators that signal operating modes such as power on or reception. Otherdevices attach to coaxial cables or include a connector or port to which an antenna can be attached.
Typically, RF receivers that are rated for outdoor use feature a heavy-duty waterproof design. Devices
with internal calibration and a frequency range switch are also available.

General Description
The 212 decoders are a series of CMOS LSIs for remote control system applications. They are
paired with Holteks 212 series of encoders (refer to the encoder/decoder cross reference table). For
proper operation, a pair of encoder/decoder with the same number of addresses and data format
should be chosen. The decoders receive serial addresses and data from a programmed 212 series of
encoders that are transmitted by a carrier using an RF or an IR transmission medium. They compare the
serial input data three times continuously with their local addresses. If no error or unmatched codes are
found, the input data codes are decoded and then transferred to the output pins. The VT pin also goes
high to indicate a valid transmission. The 212 series of decoders are capable of decoding informations
that consist of N bits of address and 12_N bits of data. Of this series, the HT12D is arranged to provide 8
address bits and 4 data bits, and HT12F is used to decode 12 bits of address information.
Notes: Data type: L stands for latch type data output.
VT can be used as a momentary data output.

Functional Description
Operation
The 212 series of decoders provides various combinations of addresses and data pins in different
packages so as to pair with the 212 series of encoders. The decoders receive data that are transmitted
by an encoder and interpret the first N bits of code period as addresses and the last 12_N bits as data,
where N is the address code number. A signal on the DIN pin activates the oscillator, which in turn
decodes the incoming address and data. The decoders will then check the received address three times
continuously. If the received address codes all match the contents of the decoders local address, the
12_N bits of data are decoded to activate the output pins and the VT pin is set high to indicate a valid
transmission. This will last unless the address code is incorrect or no signal is received. The output of the
VT pin is high only when the transmission is valid. Otherwise it is always low.
Output type
Of the 212 series of decoders, the HT12F has no data output pin but its VT pin can be used as a
momentary data output. The HT12D, on the other hand, provides 4 latch type data pins whose data
remain unchanged until new data are received.

Flowchart
The oscillator is disabled in the standby state and activated when a logic _high_ signal applies to the DIN
pin. That is to say, the DIN should be kept low if there is no signal input.
