ME Text:
1) Microprocessor Architecture, Programming, and Applications

2) Design with Microprocessors for Mechanical Engineers, by A.K.
Stiffler.
Course Description:
 This course is about the understanding of Mechatronic Systems,
which entails the integration of mainly mechanical, electrical,
electronics, computer, and control engineering disciplines within a
unified framework.
 As, microprocessors are commonly used in home appliances, a
variety of industrial applications, automotive electronics, and
business machines. Therefore, in this course, we will be studying
the very basic and initial 8-bit microprocessor Intel 8085.
 This course provides an introduction to fundamentals of a
microprocessor, various parts of computer system, and specifically
the internal architecture of 8085 microprocessor. It also gives a
concise material of 8085 assembly language programs.
 In this course, commonly used interface modules like analog-to-
digital converter, digital-to-analog converter, sampling theory, as
well as stepper, and DC motors to microcontrollers will be
explained.
TOPICS TO BE COVERED:

• Digital to analog converter
• Interfacing switches
Interfacing:
• LEDs, LCDs, Relay
• Pulse Width Modulation
• Stepper motors and DC motors to microcontrollers
Attendance Policy:
You are required to attend all the classes, because class attendance will
significantly help you understand the material & prepare for the exams.
That's why there is small %tage of sessional grading for attendance.

Grading Policy: Grading Scale:


Attendance Some % Mini-Proj. 08% A 4.0 C+ 2.33

A- 3.67 C 2.0
Quizzes 06 % Mid-term 20 %
B+ 3.33 C- 1.67

Homework 06 % Final 60 % 𝑩 3.0 D+ 1.33

B− 2.67 D 1.0
Honor Pledge
"I pledge to support the honor system of UET Peshawar. I will refrain
from any form of academic dishonesty or deception, such as cheating
or plagiarism in taking quizzes, tests, the completion of homework
assignments, as well as attendance.”

Notes:
1) All exams are closed-book and closed-notes or otherwise if online.
No cell phone or other electronic devices should be used.
2) Students are responsible for materials covered and announcements
made in classes, including those in which they are absent.
3) This schedule and policy are tentative and may be modified. So, the
circumstances and events may make it necessary for the instructor to
modify the syllabus during the semester. This may depend, in part, on
the progress, needs, and experiences of the students.
• The word “Mechatronics” was first introduced by Mr. Tetsuro
Moria, a senior engineer of a Japanese company, Yaskawa, in
1970’s.

(1) (2)

“The application of electronics and computer technology to control


the motions of mechanical systems”. (3)

To develop products, processes and systems with greater flexibility,


ease in redesign and ability of reprogramming.
Mechatronics System
Mechatronics Applications:
• Smart Consumer Products: Home Security, Camera, Microwave Oven,
Toaster, Dish washer, Laundry washer-dryer, Climate control units, etc.
• Medical: Implant-devices, Assisted surgery, Haptic, etc.
• Defense: Unmanned air, ground, Underwater vehicles, Smart
Weaponry, Jet Engines, etc.
• Automation: Robotics, Machines, Processes, etc.
• Automotive: Climate control, Antilock
Brake (ABS), Active Suspension, Cruise
Control, Air Bags, Engine Management,
safety, etc.
• Network-centric, Distributed Systems:
Distributed Robotics, Tele-robotics,
Intelligent Highways, etc.
o Home Automation:
Using a computer:
– Turn on the lights at preset times. (4)
– Adjust brightness
– Turn on the heat at preset times or temperatures
– Serve as a security system (4)

Key Elements of Mechatronic Systems:

o Mechanical Elements o Electromechanical elements


o Electrical/Electronic elements:

o Control Interface/computing
hardware elements

o Computer elements

Digital Computers:
A digital computer is a multipurpose, programmable machine that
reads binary instructions from its memory, accepts binary data as
input & process that data according to those instructions and provide
results as the output. Instructions are simply a pattern of 0’s and 1’s. (5)
o The term Hardware implies the physical components of computer.
o A set of instructions written for the computer to perform a task is
called a program, and a group of programs is called Software.

Bits: A bit is actually a binary digit such as “0” and “1” which represents
electric voltages in the machine: generally as one level (low) and the
other (high) respectively. (6)

o The “Digital Computers" are designed to be programmable, its


means that they understand and execute many binary instructions.
So, a computer is more sophisticated machine than a toaster, why?
• A toaster can only execute one function.
• That function can’t be changed.
Memory: Memory is an essential component of a microcomputer
system. It stores binary instructions (in “0” & “1”) and data for the
microprocessor . There are mainly two types of memory :
Read/Write Memory(R/WM) and Read-Only Memory (ROM).
It is like page/pages of a notebook made up of semiconductor
materials & have lines (or 8-bit registers) that can store eight bits. (7)

o A group of 1024 (210 ) 8-bit registers on a semiconductor chip is


known as 1K byte of memory.

Input/Output (I/O) Devices (Peripherals):

Input devices such as keyboards or simple switches can be used to


enter instructions and data in the memory. (8)

o The data in the memory is processed by the computer through the


stored instructions; and places the results either in memory OR,
The result can be displayed (by seven-segment LEDs) or printed by a
printer. SO, LEDs and printer are output devices. (9)
The Central Processing Unit (CPU):

The CPU of a computer have various registers to store data, the


arithmetic/logic unit (ALU) to perform arithmetic & logical operations,
instruction decoders, counters , and control lines. The CPU is the main
player in communicating with various peripherals such as input, output,
and memory. (10)

o However, the timing of the communication process is controlled by


the group of circuits called the control unit.
o From the block diagram, it is evident
that a computer has five components:
• ALU
• Control unit
• Memory
• Input & Output CPU
What is a Microprocessor?
o The word comes from the combination micro & processor.
Processor means a device that processes whatever. In this context
processor means a device that processes numbers, specifically binary
numbers, 0’s and 1’s.
To process means to manipulate. It is a general term that describes all
manipulation. Again in this content, it means to perform certain
operations on the numbers that depend on the microprocessor’s
design.

Definition of the Microprocessor:

The microprocessor is a programmable device that takes in numbers,


performs on them arithmetic or logical operations according to the
program (instructions) stored in the memory and then produces other
numbers as a result (output). (11)
Basic Concepts of Microprocessors:

 Difference Between:
Microcomputer:
– A computer with a microprocessor as its CPU. Includes memory
(read/write memory and read-only memory), Input and Output etc.
Microprocessor:
– A silicon chip which includes ALU, register circuits & control circuits.
Microcontroller:
– A silicon chip which includes microprocessor, memory & I/O in a
single package. (12)
