Propeller Clock Abstract

The document describes a propeller clock project that was carried out over 3 months. The propeller clock uses a series of LEDs mounted on a circuit board that rotates, powered by a DC motor, to create the illusion of a digital or analog clock face. A microprocessor like the PIC16C84 or 16F84 is programmed to switch the LEDs on and off in a sequence and with timed delays that match the rotation speed of the motor. One phase of the DC motor is fed back to the microprocessor to continuously track the position of the motor.

PROPELLER CLOCK

Duration : 3 months Date of start : Dissertation carried out at: KLU Title : Propeller Clock Name of student, id no : 1. V. Chaitanya (09101608) 2. Siddartha Kumar (09101) Name of the guide: Neelima Abstract: The Propeller Clock is an electronic device which has a series of LEDs on board that rotate with the help of a motor to give an illusion of a watching a clock ( Digital or Analogue ). This requires a DC motor which rotates the PCB connected to it with sufficient speed so as to create the illusion. The LEDs are connected to a microprocessor PIC16C84 or 16F84 which is so programmed to switch ON and OFF the LEDs in a sequence and with a time delay to approximately match with the rotating speed of the motor. One of the phases of the DC motor is directly fed back to the microprocessor to identify the position of the motor at any instant. Important terms: Propeller Clock, Microprocessor, DC Motor, PIC16C84, 16F84.
