Wireless DC Motor Speed and Direction Control Using Ir Communication

This document discusses a wireless DC motor speed and direction control system using infrared (IR) communication. A pulse width modulator (PWM) circuit is used as an efficient DC motor controller. The PWM varies the on-off ratio of a square wave to variably control the power transferred to the motor. This allows for wireless control of motor speed and direction from a remote location using an IR transmitter and receiver. The system aims to reduce maintenance costs and brake wear compared to existing wired solutions. Key hardware includes a microcontroller, IR transmitter/receiver, LCD display, and DC motor. Software includes an embedded C program compiled using Keil.

WIRELESS DC MOTOR SPEED AND DIRECTION


CONTROL USING IR COMMUNICATION
ABSTRACT
A pulse width modulator (PWM) is a device that may be used as an
efficient DC motor speed controller or light dimmer. This project is a
versatile device that can control DC devices which draw up to a few amps
of current. The circuit may be used in either 12 or 24 Volt systems with
only a few minor wiring changes. This device has been used to control
the speed of the DC motor and to control brightness of an automotive tail
lamp.
A PWM circuit works by making a square wave with a variable onto-off ratio, the average on time may be varied from 0 to 100 percent. In
this manner, a variable amount of power is transferred to the load. The
main advantage of a PWM circuit over a resistive power controller is the
efficiency, at a 50% level, the PWM will use about 50% of full power,
almost all of which is transferred to the load, a resistive controller at 50%
load power would consume about 71% of full power, 50% of the power
goes to the load and the other 21% is wasted heating the series resistor.
One additional advantage of pulse width modulation is that the pulses
reach the full supply voltage and will produce more torque in a motor by
being able to overcome the internal motor resistances more easily.
EXISTING SYSTEM
maintenance costs is high and brake life reduced
DISADVANTAGE
due to unwanted problem cost is increased
