pressurized steel cylinders. As this gas is heavier than air, when it leaks from a cylinder it flows along floor and tends to settle in low spots such as a basement. This can cause fire or suffocation if not dealt with. Here is a circuit that detects the leakage of LPG gas and alerts the user through audio-visual indications. This LPG Gas Sensor (MQ6), ideal sensor for use to detect the presence of a dangerous Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and it has high sensitivity to propane, butane, isobutene, natural gas. The sensor can also be used to detect combustible gases, especially methane. This circuit can detect leakages in your Home, car or in a service station, storage tank environment. This unit can be easily implemented to industrial level by upgrading its ranges. This project is designed to detect the LPG from 200parts per million (PPM) to 10,000 PPM. Whenever there is LPG concentration of 1000 ppm (parts per million) in the area, the OUT pin of the sensor module goes high. This signal drives timer IC 555, which is wired as an astable multivibrator. The multivibrator basically works as a tone generator. A buzzer is connected to produce audible alert signal. Chapter-1 Introduction 1. Introduction: The project we have done is entailed IC555, gas sensor module and variable register with electronics application. This is an industrial defined project i.e. IDP. And the title is so given from the problem definition related to“fast way to detect gas Leakage with compare to conventional way of gas detection”. Wegot the above mentioned problem definition from our industrial visit to Bathtouch industry. 1.1 Industry visited: Bathtouch Metals Pvt Ltd. Plot no G-1611, F Road, Metoda G.I.D.C Kalawad Road Rajkot - 360035, Gujarat India www.bathtouchmetal.com For the industrial defined project I visited bathtouch Industry Works (Metoda). The industry is located in Metoda. The best part of this industry is the beautiful environment and friendly atmosphere. The people working in this industry are very genuine and down to earth. They co-operated on my visit to this industry.And helped in every possible manner. 1.1 Bathtouch Industry Bathtouch industry was founded in 1955 by Mr.Girdharbhai. The company adopted advanced gear technology. Step by step gear shaping, hobblingand shaving and finally added gear grinds technology also. The company started manufacturing 2-3 type electronic component a day and today it is making 75-80types component daily on the automatic machine. In last 4 years Mr. Ravi Vaghela, grandson of Mr. Bharat Vaghela has become an added part of the company Chapter 2 Problem definition 2.1 Detailed problem definition: To understand the problem definition deeply we first need to know about the welding machine and the problem occurred in the machine. 2.1.1 Welding machine:It is necessary to know about the machine in which we are making our project. Thus I have included the detailed description of the welding machine in which I m going to place my project. What is welding? Welding stands for joining the different metal parts which is done by welding machine. And the welding machine uses the LPG type of the gases. While people in most walks of life have heard of this term, welding process has touched almost every form of manufacturing process in one way or another. If you'll be working in manufacturing, it's likely that you'll be dealing with welding small or large machine on a regular basis. While there are exceptions to this statement, welding machines typically replace (or work in conjunction with) some existing manufacturing processes. Take one of the simplest manufacturing processes;joint the plate of metal, for example. 2.2 Problem in fire related security: While visiting Bathtouch industry we saw that emergency fire security in other way but in that way we observed that it is difficult to determineincidentally gas leakage of gas is done or not. And if it is not done than so much time will be waste for knowing this and we also show manytimethe risky condition that may occurs and no one can know about it. Chapter 3 Feasibility 3.1Financial feasibility: The resources used in this project are quite feasible financially. Components list: Resisters Zenerdiode capacitor 555 IC MQ-6 Variable resister The list of components given above shows that all the components are cheap and feasible. The company will not have any problem in using this simple project circuit. 3.2 Resource feasibility: All the resources used in this project are easily available. The IC555 used in this project might be difficult to find in the market. But it is easily available from the dual supply. 3.3 Technical feasibility: After we gave our idea to the industry labor, then the industry person told that our idea was quite feasible technically and promised to try it on their Machines. Thus the project is feasible technically but cannot be used on machines directly because it needs some specifications and data of the machine to make the project fit for machine. But the industry I visited didn’t share the data of the machines and kept them personal. They had some terms and conditions according to which I had to work. And they didn’t give any detailed specifications of the machines and they even didn’t allow working on their machines.

An MQ-6 gas sensor is used in the gas sensor module. As per its datasheet, it has high sensitivity to propane, butane, isobutene, LPG and natural gas. The sensor can also be used to detect combustible gases, especially methane. This circuit has been tested with LPG gas and was found to work very fine. Whenever there is LPG con-centration of 1000 ppm (parts per million) in the area, the OUT pin of the sensor module goes high. This signal drives timer IC 555, which is wired as an astablemultivibrator. The multivibrator basically works as a tone generator. Output pin 3 of IC 555 is connected to LED1 and speaker-driver transistor SL100 through current-limiting resis-tors R5 and R4, respectively. LED1 glows and the alarm sound to alert the user of gas leakage. The pitch of the tone can be changed by varying preset VR1. Use a suitable heat-sink for transistor SL100. Chapter 5 Components detail Component details: 5.1 Resistor: Register is a passive element. These components are split into two categories; those which dissipate energy and those which store it. The property of a substance, which opposes the flow of an electrical current through it, is called the “resistance” (measured in ohms). Fixed resisters are used in circuit diagram. A linear resistor is a linear, passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. The current through a resistor is in direct proportion to the voltage across the resistor's terminals. Thus, the ratio of the voltage applied across a resistor's terminals to the intensity of current through the circuit is called resistance. This relation is represented by Ohm's law: Resistors are common elements of electrical networks and electronic circuits and are ubiquitous in most electronic equipment. Practical resistors can be made of various compounds and films, as well as resistance wire (wire made of a high-resistivity alloy, such as nickel-chrome). Resistors are also implemented within integrated circuits, particularly analog devices, and can also be integrated into hybrid and printed circuits. The electrical functionality of a resistor is specified by its resistance: common commercial resistors are manufactured over a range of more than nine orders of magnitude. When specifying that resistance in an electronic design, the required precision of the resistance may require attention to the manufacturing tolerance of the chosen resistor, according to its specific application. The temperature coefficient of the resistance may also be of concern in some precision applications. Practical resistors are also specified as having a maximum power rating which must exceed the anticipated power dissipation of that resistor in a particular circuit: this is mainly of concern in power electronics applications. Resistors with higher power ratings are physically larger and may require heat sinks. In a high-voltage circuit, attention must sometimes be paid to the rated maximum working voltage of the resistor. Practical resistors have a series inductance and a small parallel capacitance; these specifications can be important in high-frequency applications. In a low-noise amplifier or pre-amp, the noise characteristics of a resistor may be an issue. The unwanted inductance, excess noise, and temperature coefficient are mainly dependent on the technology used in manufacturing the resistor. They are not normally specified individually for a particular family of resistors manufactured using a particular technology. A family of discrete resistors is also characterized according to its form factor, that is, the size of the device and the position of its leads (or terminals) which is relevant in the practical manufacturing of circuits using them. Fig.5.1 (a)of resistors The symbol for a resistor is shown in the below. Fig. 5.1(b): Resistor symbols The unit for measuring resistance is the OHM. (The Greek letter Ω called Omega). Higher resistance values are represented by "k" (kilo-ohms) and M (Meg ohms). 5.1.1 Resistor Markings:Resistance value is marked on the resistor body. Most resistors have 4 bands. The first two bands provide the numbers for the resistance and the third band provides the number of zeros. The fourth band indicates the tolerance. Tolerance values of 5%, 2%, and 1% are most commonly available. The following table shows the colors used to identify resistor values: Fig. 5.1(c): Four-band resistor, c. Five-band resistor, d. Cylindrical SMD resistor, e. Flat SMD resistor 5.2 Capacitor: Fig5.2(a) Capacitor A capacitor (formerly known as condenser) is a passive two-terminal electrical component used to store energy in an electric field. The forms of practical capacitors vary widely, but all contain at least two electrical conductors separated by a dielectric (insulator); for example, one common construction consists of metal foils separated by a thin layer of insulating film. Capacitors are widely used as parts of electrical circuits in many common electrical devices. When there is a potential difference (voltage) across the conductors, a static electric field develops across the dielectric, causing positive charge to collect on one plate and negative charge on the other plate. Energy is stored in the electrostatic field. An ideal capacitor is characterized by a single constant value, capacitance, measured in farads. This is the ratio of the electric charge on each conductor to the potential difference between them. The capacitance is greatest when there is a narrow separation between large areas of conductor; hence capacitor conductors are often called "plates," referring to an early means of construction. In practice, the dielectric between the plates passes a small amount of leakage current and also has an electric field strength limit, resulting in a breakdown voltage, while the conductors and leads introduce an undesired inductance and resistance.Capacitors are widely used in electronic circuits for blocking direct current while allowing alternating current to pass, in filter networks, for smoothing the output of power supplies, in the resonant circuits that tune radios to particular frequencies and for many other purposes. The simplest capacitor consists of two parallel conductive plates separated by a dielectric with permittivity ε (such as air). The model may also be used to make qualitative predictions for other device geometries. The plates are considered to extend uniformly over an area A and a charge density ±ρ = ±Q/A exists on their surface. Assuming that the width of the plates is much greater than their separation d, the electric field near the centre of the device will be uniform with the magnitude E = ρ/ε. The voltage is defined as the line integral of the electric field between the plates.Solving this for C = Q/V reveals that capacitance increases with area and decreases with separation …………………………..(1) The capacitance is therefore greatest in devices made from materials with a high permittivity, large plate area, and small distance between plates. We see that the maximum energy is a function of dielectric volume, permittivity, and dielectric strength per distance. So increasing the plate area while decreasing the separation between the plates while maintaining the same volume has no change on the amount of energy the capacitor can store. Care must be taken when increasing the plate separation so that the above assumption of the distance between plates being much smaller than the area of the plates is still valid for these equations to be accurate. Fig 5.2(b) parallel plates of capacitor 5.3 Zenger Diode: Zener diodes are a form of semiconductor diode that is widely used in electronics circuits as voltage references. Zener diodes provide a stable and defined voltage and as a result Zener diode circuits are often used in power supplies when regulated outputs are needed. Zener diodes are cheap and they are also easy to use and as a result they are used in many applications and many circuits. 5.3(a)Symbol&Physical figure 5.3.1 zenerDiode Construction: The zener diode's operation depends on the heavy doping of its p-n junction. The depletion region formed in the diode is very thin (<0.000001 m) and the electric field is consequently very high (about 500000 V/m) even for a small reverse bias voltage of about 5 V, allowing electrons to tunnel from the valence band of the p-type material to the conduction band of the n-type material. In the atomic scale, this tunneling corresponds to the transport of valence band electrons into the empty conduction band states; as a result of the reduced barrier between these bands and high electric fields that are induced due to the relatively high levels of doping on both sides. The breakdown voltage can be controlled quite accurately in the doping process. While tolerances within 0.05% are available, the most widely used tolerances are 5% and 10%. Breakdown voltage for commonly available zener diodes can vary widely from 1.2 volts to 200 volts. Surface Zeners The emitter-base junction of a bipolar NPN transistor behaves as a zener diode, with breakdown voltage at about 6.8 V for common bipolar processes and about 10 V for lightly doped base regions in BiCMOS processes. Older processes with poor control of doping characteristics had the variation of Zener voltage up to +-1 V, newer processes using ion implantation can achieve no more than +0.25 V. The NPN transistor structure can be employed as a surface zener diode, with collector and emitter connected together as its cathode and base region as anode. In this approach the base doping profile usually narrows towards the surface, creating a region with intensified electric field where the avalanche breakdown occurs. The hot carriers produced by acceleration in the intense field sometime shoot into the oxide layer above the junction and become trapped there. The accumulation of trapped charges can then cause Zener walkout, a corresponding change of the Zener voltage of the junction. The same effect can be achieved by radiation damage. The emitter-basedzener diodes can handle only smaller currents as the energy is dissipated in the base depletion region which is very small. Higher amount of dissipated energy (higher current for longer time, or a short very high current spike) will cause thermal damage to the junction and/or its contacts. Partial damage of the junction can shift its Zener voltage. Total destruction of the Zener junction by overheating it and causing migration of metallization across the junction ("spiking") can be used intentionally as a Zener zap antifuse. Subsurface Zeners A subsurface Zener diode, also called buried Zener, is a device similar to the surface Zener, but with the avalanche region located deeper in the structure, typically several micrometers below the oxide. The hot carriers then lose energy by collisions with the semiconductor lattice before reaching the oxide layer and cannot be trapped there. The Zener walkout phenomenon therefore does not occur here, and the buried Zeners have voltage constant over their entire lifetime. Most buried Zeners have breakdown voltage of 5-7 volts. Several different junction structures are used. 5.3.2 Diode Biased Voltage Zener Diode I-V Characteristics 5.3(C)V-I characteristic The Zener Diode is used in its "reverse bias" or reverse breakdown mode, i.e. the diodes anode connects to the negative supply. From the I-V characteristics curve above, we can see that the zener diode has a region in its reverse bias characteristics of almost a constant negative voltage regardless of the value of the current flowing through the diode and remains nearly constant even with large changes in current as long as the zener diodes current remains between the breakdown current IZ(min) and the maximum current rating IZ(max). This ability to control itself can be used to great effect to regulate or stabilize a voltage source against supply or load variations. The fact that the voltage across the diode in the breakdown region is almost constant turns out to be an important application of the zener diode as a voltage regulator. The function of a regulator is to provide a constant output voltage to a load connected in parallel with it in spite of the ripples in the supply voltage or the variation in the load current and the zener diode will continue to regulate the voltage until the diodes current falls below the minimum IZ(min) value in the reverse breakdown region. The Zener Diode Regulator Zener Diodes can be used to produce a stabilized voltage output with low ripple under varying load current conditions. By passing a small current through the diode from a voltage source, via a suitable current limiting resistor (RS), the zener diode will conduct sufficient current to maintain a voltage drop of out. We remember from the previous tutorials that the DC output voltage from the half or full-wave rectifiers contains ripple superimposed onto the DC voltage and that as the load value changes so too does the average output voltage. By connecting a simple zenerstabiliser circuit as shown below across the output of the rectifier, a more stable output voltage can be produced. Zener Diode Regulator The resistor, RS is connected in series with the zener diode to limit the current flow through the diode with the voltage source, VS being connected across the combination. The stabilized output voltage Voutis taken from across the zener diode. The zener diode is connected with its cathode terminal connected to the positive rail of the DC supply so it is reverse biased and will be operating in its breakdown condition. Resistor RS is selected so to limit the maximum current flowing in the circuit. With no load connected to the circuit, the load current will be zero, (IL = 0), and all the circuit current passes through the zener diode which in turn dissipates its maximum power. Also a small value of the series resistor RS will result in a greater diode current when the load resistance RL is connected and large as this will increase the power dissipation requirement of the diode so care must be taken when selecting the appropriate value of series resistance so that the zeners maximum power rating is not exceeded under this no-load or high-impedance condition. The load is connected in parallel with the zener diode, so the voltage across RL is always the same as the zener voltage, (VR = VZ). There is a minimum zener current for which the stabilization of the voltage is effective and the zener current must stay above this value operating under load within its breakdown region at all times. The upper limit of current is of course dependent upon the power rating of the device. The supply voltage VS must be greater than VZ. One small problem with zener diode stabilizer circuits is that the diode can sometimes generate electrical noise on top of the DC supply as it tries to stabilize the voltage. Normally this is not a problem for most applications but the addition of a large value decoupling capacitor across the zeners output may be required to give additional smoothing. Then to summarize a little. A zener diode is always operated in its reverse biased condition. A voltage regulator circuit can be designed using a zener diode to maintain a constant DC output voltage across the load in spite of variations in the input voltage or changes in the load current. The zener voltage regulator consists of a current limiting resistor RS connected in series with the input voltage VS with the zener diode connected in parallel with the load RL in this reverse biased condition. The stabilized output voltage is always selected to be the same as the breakdown voltage VZ of the diode. 5.4 LED: A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor light source. LEDs are used as indicator lamps in many devices and are increasingly used for other lighting. Introduced as a practical electronic component in 1962, early LEDs emitted low-intensity red light, but modern versions are available across the visible, ultraviolet, and infrared wavelengths, with very high brightness. When a light-emitting diode is forward-biased (switched on), electrons are able to recombine with electron holes within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons. This effect is called electroluminescence and the color of the light (corresponding to the energy of the photon) is determined by the energy gap of the semiconductor. LEDs are often small in area (less than 1 mm2), and integrated optical components may be used to shape its radiation pattern. Fig 5.4(a)Diagram of LED LEDs present many advantages over incandescent light sources including lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, improved robustness, smaller size, and faster switching. LEDs powerful enough for room lighting are relativelyexpensive and require more precise current and heat management than compact fluorescent lamp sources of comparable output. Light-emitting diodes are used in applications as diverse as replacements for aviation lighting, automotive lighting (in particular brake lamps, turn signals, and indicators) as well as in traffic signals. LEDs have allowed new text, video displays, and sensors to be developed, while their high switching rates are also useful in advanced communications technology. Infrared LEDs are also used in the remote control units of many commercial products including televisions, DVD players, and other domestic appliances. Practical use: The first commercial LEDs were commonly used as replacements for incandescent and neon indicator lamps, and in seven-segment displays, first in expensive equipment such as laboratory and electronics test equipment, then later in such appliances as TVs, radios, telephones, calculators, and even watches (see list of signal uses). These red LEDs were bright enough only for use as indicators, as the light output was not enough to illuminate an area. Readouts in calculators were so small that plastic lenses were built over each digit to make them legible. Later, other colors grew widely available and also appeared in appliances and equipment. As LED materials technology grew more advanced, light output rose, while maintaining efficiency and reliability at acceptable levels. The invention and development of the high-power white-light LED to use for illumination, which is fast replacing incandescent and fluorescent lighting. (See list of illumination applications). Most LEDs were made in the very common 5 mm T1¾ and 3 mm T1 packages, but with rising power output, it has grown increasingly necessary to shed excess heat to maintain 5.4(b) LED Reliability, so more complex packages have been adapted for efficient heat dissipation. Packages for state-of-the-art high-power LEDs bear little resemblance to early LEDs. Fig.5.4 (b) LED Working of LED The LED consists of a chip of semiconducting material doped with impurities to create a p-n junction. As in other diodes, current flows easily from the p-side, or anode, to the n-side, or cathode, but not in the reverse direction. Charge-carriers electrons and holes — flow into the junction from electrodes with different voltages. When an electron meets a hole, it falls into a lower energy level, and releases energy in the form of a photon. Fig.5.4(c)Inner workings of LED The wavelength of the light emitted, and thus its color depends on the band gap energy of the materials forming the p-n junction. In silicon or germanium diodes, the electrons and holes recombine by a non-radioactive transition, which produces no optical emission, because these are indirect band gap materials. The materials used for the LED have a direct band gap with energies corresponding to near-infrared, visible, or near-ultraviolet light. Fig 5.4(d)I-V diagram for a diode. An LED will begin to emit light when the on-voltage is exceeded. Typical on voltages are 2–3 volts. LED development began with infrared and red devices made with gallium arsenide. Advances in materials science have enabled making devices with ever-shorter wavelengths, emitting light in a variety of colors. LEDs are usually built on an n-type substrate, with an electrode attached to the p-type layer deposited on its surface. P-type substrates, while less common, occur as well. Many commercial LEDs, especially GaN/InGaN, also use sapphire substrate. Most materials used for LED production have very high refractive indices. This means that much light will be reflected back into the material at the material/air surface interface. Thus, light extraction in LEDs is an important aspect of LED production, subject to much research and development. 5.5 MQ-6 GAS SENSOR MODULE: Description: This LPG Gas Sensor Module is latest revision V2, which replaces the old module Part No: SEN-1327 .It is designed to enable LPG detection interface to Microcontroller without ADC Channels and programming.

For astable operations an oscillator, the free running frequency and the duty cycle are both accurately controlled with two external resistors and one capacitor. The circuit may be triggered and reset on falling waveforms, and the output structure can source or sink up to 200mA. The NE555 is available in plastic and ceramic mini dip package and in a 8-leadmicropackage and in metal Pin Diagram: 5.6(a) pin diagram of IC555 Pin Description: Pin Name Purpose 1 GND Ground, low level (0 V) 2 TRIG OUT rises, and interval starts, when this input falls below 1/3 VCC. 3 OUT This output is driven to approximately 1.7V below +VCC or GND. A timing interval may be reset by driving this input to GND, but the 4 RESET timing does not begin again until RESET rises above approximately 0.7 volts. Overrides TRIG which overrides THR. 5 CTRL "Control" access to the internal voltage divider (by default, 2/3 VCC). 6 THR The interval ends when the voltage at THR is greater than at CTRL. 7 DIS 8 V+,VCC Positive supply voltage is usually between 3 and 15 V. Open collector output; may discharge a capacitor between intervals. In phase with output. 5.6(b) pin description of IC555 5.7 Variable Resistors: These are resistors whose resistance can be altered and they have three connections. There are two connections at either end of the resistance material, which is commonly known as the track. The third connection is made to a conducting slider, commonly known as the wiper, which is in contact with the track and can be slid along it from one end to the other. The current or voltage available at the wiper is then related to the position that it has along the track. Symbol: Fig 5.7(a) symbol of variable Resistor Variable Resistors can be used in a circuit to alter resistance and in this situation only two connections are used. One end and the wiper. It is good practice to connect the free end to the wiper so in the event that the wiper fails to connect, the variable resistor will go to maximum resistance protecting the circuit. Potentiometer or Pot is the name given when the variable resistor is used as a Potential Divider to alter voltage in part of the circuit from 9 to 0 volts or as a speaker balance control. All three connections are used. Turn the Potentiometer shaft clockwise and anti-clockwise and see how the voltages change from 0 to 9 volts. Fig.5.7 (b) Variable Resistors There are two types of variable resistors: 1. Preset:The resistance of part of the circuit needs to be adjusted once during manufacture to allow for component variations. Presets are soldered directly onto the Printed Circuit Board. (PCB) Fig(a) Pre Set 2. Control:The resistance of part of the circuit is altered frequently such as volume control. These are available as single gang, double gang (stereo volume) and single gang switched. They are available as either rotary shaft or slider. Fig(b)Rotary Control Fig(c) Slide Control Values of Variable Resistors:Typical values:- 100R 220R 470R 1K 2K2 4K7 10K 22K 47K 100K 220K 470K Resistance is available in two forms:- Linear and Log values. 1M Linear values change directly with the amount of movement giving a straight line on the graph. Log values start off with a small change in resistance for a large movement and gradually alters to a large change in resistance for a small amount of movement. Curved line on the graph. Fig 5.7(c)Graph of Linear and Log Resistance values against Rotation 5.7.1 Potentiometers: Potentiometers (also called pots) are variable resistors, used as voltage or current regulators in electronic circuits. By means of construction, they can be divided into 2 groups: coated and wire-wound. With coated potentiometers, (figure 1.6a), insulator body is coated with a resistive material. There is a conductive slider moving across the resistive layer, increasing the resistance between slider and one end of pot, while decreasing the resistance between slider and the other end of pot. Fig 5.7(d): Coated potentiometer Wire-wound potentiometers are made of conductor wire coiled around insulator body. There is a slider moving across the wire, increasing the resistance between slider and one end of pot, while decreasing the resistance between slider and the other end of pot. Coated pots are much more common. With these, resistance can be linear, logarithmic, inverse-logarithmic or other, depending upon the angle or position of the slider. Most common are linear and logarithmic potentiometers, and the most common applications are radio-receivers, audio amplifiers, and similar devices where pots are used for adjusting the volume, tone, balance, etc. Wire-wound potentiometers are used in devices which require more accuracy in control. They feature higher dissipation than coated pots, and are therefore in high current circuits. Potentiometer resistance is commonly of E6 series, including the values: 1, 2.2 and 4.7. Standard tolerance values include 30%, 20%, 10% (and 5% for wire-wound pots). Potentiometers come in many different shapes and sizes, with wattage ranging from 1/4W (coated pots for volume control in amps, etc) to tens ofwatts(for regulating high currents). Several different pots are shown in the photo 5.7.b, along with the symbol for a potentiometer. Fig. 5.7(e): Potentiometers The upper model represents a stereo potentiometer. These are actually two pots in one casing, with sliders mounted on shared axis, so they move simultaneously. These are used in stereophonic amps for simultaneous regulation of both left and right channels, etc. Lower left is the so called slider potentiometer. Lower right is a wirewound pot with a wattage of 20W, commonly used as rheostat (for regulating current while charging a battery etc.). For circuits that demand very accurate voltage and current values, trimmer potentiometers (or just trim pots) are used. These are small potentiometers with a slider that is adjusted via a screwdriver. Trim pots also come in many different shapes and sizes, with wattage ranging from 0.1W to 0.5W. Image 5.7.c shows several different trim pots, along with the symbol. Fig. 5.7(f): Trim potentiometers Resistance adjustments are made via a screwdriver. Exception is the trim pot on the lower right, which can be adjusted via a plastic shaft. Particularly fine adjusting can be achieved with the trim pot in the plastic rectangular casing (lower middle). Its slider is moved via a screw, so that several full turns is required to move the slider from one end to the other. 5.7.2 Practical examples with potentiometers: As previously stated, potentiometers are most commonly used in amps, radio and TV receivers, cassette players and similar devices. They are used for adjusting volume, tone, balance, etc. As an example, we will analyze the common circuit for tone regulation in an audio amp. It contains two pots and is shown in the figure 5.7.d. Fig. 5.7(g) Tone regulation circuit: a. Electrical scheme, b. Function of amplification Potentiometer marked BASS regulates low frequency amplification. When the slider is in the lowest position, amplification of very low frequency signals (tens of Hz) is about ten times greater than the amplification of mid frequency signals (~kHz). If slider is in the uppermost position, amplification of very low frequency signals is about ten times lower than the amplification of mid frequency signals. Low frequency boost is useful when listening to music with a beat (disco, jazz, R&B...), while Low Frequency amplification should be reduced when listening to speech or classical music. Similarly, potentiometer marked TREBLE regulates high frequency amplification. High frequency boost is useful when music consists of highpitched tones such as chimes, while for example High Frequency amplification should be reduced when listening to an old record to reduce the background noise. Diagram 5.7.d. shows the function of amplification depending upon the signal frequency. If both sliders are in their uppermost position, the result is shown with curve 1-2. If both are in mid position function is described with line 3-4, and with both sliders in the lowest position, the result is shown with curve 5-6. Setting the pair of sliders to any other possible results in curves between curves 1-2 and 5-6. Potentiometers BASS and TREBLE are coated by construction and linear by resistance.The third pot in the diagram is a volume control. It is coated and logarithmic by resistance (hence the mark log) Chapter 6 Project design 6.1 Software design: I found my dew sensor circuit and heater circuit from the internet as I said in the above chapter.I have made my complete project on a special purpose PCB.
