WEEK 4 (FYP2) - ETCHING THE CIRCUIT ARE USE ON THIS PROJECT

Objective:

1) To etching the circuit that use using PCB board

Analysis/Discussion:

During week 7 basically doing the etching for the circuit that use in this project by followed the step or procedure that studies before during making the diploma and advice by friend that has knowledge about the etching process.

The etching method are:

Step 1: Finalize Circuit Design

Everything starts with the circuit design. Without a circuit there is no need for a PCB. Before student even begins to lay out PCB, student must have a complete and accurate schematic diagram. In today‘s world of modern computing, the circuit design is capture directly in a schematic. Schematic design can be obtain from source such internet and books. Some of the schematic design student obtains from lecturer and intensive class student attend.

Step 2: PCB Layout Design

In general “capturing the schematic” is the process by which each component is drowns electronically and is interconnected with each other. Once the schematic is complete its time to draw the physical outline of each of the components. These outlines are what are placed on the PCB in copper to allow the components to be soldered to the printed wiring board.

Figure 1 : PCB layout design

Step 3: Ironing the Layout Method

Put a white paper on the OHP sheet and start ironing. The heat applied by the electric iron causes theink of the traces on the OHP sheet to stick on the copper plate exactly in the same way it is printed on the OHP sheet. This means that the copper sheet will now have the layout of the PCB printed on it. Allow the PCB plate to cool down and slowly remove the OHP sheet. Since it is manual process it may happen that the layout doesn’t comes properly on PCB or some of the tracks are broken in between. Use the permanent marker and complete the track properly.

 

Figure 1: Ironing the layout method

Step 4: Etching and Drill, 

Etching process is important to make sure all connection will connect between components. First step of etching is stick the design at PCB board and it should paste all of the carbon because it the way of current flow between component. Next, by using etching liquid the process is erodible the cooper layer until left only copper line at circuit. Then, clean up circuit layer until look shiny and start process of drill a hole of pin component. 

Figure 2 : Etching the PCB board

Step 5: Solder and Testing

Next, put the components in the correct holes and solder them. Lastly, after all this process it should be testing to check the connection of circuit is correct or wrong and must be in good condition.

Figure 3 : Solder the component into PCB board

Figure 4 : All the circuit and component are connected each other with right connection

Conclusion: 

Finally, after finish etching the circuit use in this project next steps is to wiring all the circuit together with right connection. The circuit was troubleshoot and several devices was not working properly. After the troubleshooting process, the devices can be working properly. So, hardware prototype of this project can be start to build. 

WEEK 3(FYP2) - PREPARE AND BUY THE LIST OF COMPONENT FOR THE PROJECT

Objective:

1) Buy the component use for this project.

2) To calculate the budget and cost for this project.

Analysis/Discussion:

         During week 3, basically buy the listed component that want to use in this project such as the important component. Then, to avoid the actual cost and budgets for this project is to expensive when buy the component as we know because the price of the electronic component increase and if late to buy the cost for this project will increase. The component that listed such as the PCB, Keypad, LCD and others has already in stock and can buy. The total price is listed in the receipt that attach.
