  1. INTRODUCTION

    Temperature sensors are one of the fastest growing fields in the sensors market because of the abundance of applications where temperature must be monitored and controlled, including personal computers, mobile phones, automobiles, medical equipments, process industries, nuclear plants, within different sensors and many others. Temperature Sensors are the key to read temperatures correctly and to control temperature in industrials applications.

    The digital revolution in industries requires monitoring systems to flexible and fewer complexes to analyze, for in this direction we use PSoC microntroller for industrial temperature data logger, PSoC is a programmable embedded design platform integrating discrete analog and programmable logic along with memory and a microcontroller. This solution allows not only configuration of the code that will be executed, but also of the resources that will be used along with the input/output pins they are connected to. The increased flexibility of the device architecture, combined with ease of use, provides conditions for creating customized peripheral configurations matching the needs of a wide range of applications and also it is is a self-selecting digital pin or analogue input and output unit that can significantly reduce the number of required peripheral parts and quickly fulfill the design needs.

    In this paper, we present temperature measurement and transfer using wireless communication technology called zigbee. Zigbee plays a key role for transmitting and receiving the data from the user. The main advantage of this concept is real time direct measurement of the parameter through Zigbee technique. The self designed zigbee module is selected to finish the transmission and decoding of the data through PSoC microcontroller.

  3. PROGRAMMABLE SYSTEM ON CHIP Modern embedded control systems incorporate a micro- controller as the principal component – a self contained computer-on-a-chip consisting of a central processing unit, RAM memory for data storage, a variety of input/output functions and non-volatile program memory to hold the software written to implement the specific application. The new generation of re-configurable PSoC (Programmable System-on-Chip) controllers, which integrates all the above components, will become the dominant system architecture for the majority of micro-based designs, by employing advanced lithography and FLASH-based programming technology. The PSoC family consists of many Programmable Systems-on- Chip Controller devices. These devices are designed to replace multiple traditional MCU- based system components with one, low cost single-chip programmable device. PSoC based data logger measuring temperature and humidity levels. With the help of microcontroller it is difficult to implement multiple sensors on single chip. But PSoC family provides this flexibility and ease of designing.

    A PSoC is made more versatile with the following features

      1. Graphical user interface: the PSoC designer enables the users to design a graphic user interface and provide a development environment in two levels, that is, system and chip levels.

      2. Mixed signal: by integrating digital and analogue blocks together a PSoC is enabled to deal with analogue and digital signals at the same time.

      3. Programmable: a reduction in peripheral requirements is made by the user programmable analogue and digital blocks in the PSoC MCU.

  4. PROPOSED SYSTEM

    The proposed system consists of transmitter and receiver modules. The block diagram of the proposed system as shown in figure a and fig b.

    Fig a : Transmitter block diagram

    Fig b: Receiver block diagram.

    The transmitter side block diagram consists of Temperature sensor the temperature of the plant is fetched or monitored by temperature sensor which is connected to PSOC 5LP. Here we are use LM35 temperature sensor because it gives accurate temperature value at real time system temperature data lmonitoring. LM 35 sensors are directly calibrated to degree Celsius, it doesnt require conversion process and also it operates at 4 to 30V. The low self healing capability of LM35 sensor has wide range of remote applications.

    The next part of the transmitter is PSoC 5LP board consists of LCD display, three LEDs for monitoring system and external components sockets. PSoC collects the data from temperature sensor and compute the sensed value output. PSoC has large memory system consists of SRAM, EEPROM and flash memory. Other than these feature PSoC also have dedicated interference like Full speed USB2.0, CAN2.0, I2C and also debugging capability at on chip using JTAG and Serial Wide Debug, all these features of PSoC made development kit cost low and user friendly configurations.

    The third main part of the transmitter block is wireless data communication network called zigbee, it is governed by

    802.15.4 family. Zigbee has some unique characteristics like low power consumption, efficient data range and provides more number node configurations all these features of zigbee made wide range of applications. The ZigBee network layer natively supports both star and tree networks, and generic mesh networking. Every network must have one coordinator device, tasked with its creation, the control of its parameters and basic maintenance. Within star networks, the coordinator must be the central node. Both trees and meshes allow the use of ZigBee routers to extend communication at the network level.

    Zigbee is connected to both transmitter and receiver side because it transmits the data from PSoC to pc, it has a feature of two way communication.

    The receiver side consists of zigbee and PC, the data received from zigbee is displayed it on PC via UART. For the display here we use XCTU console. The main advantage of XCTU console is it directly prints whatever it sent data or whatever it receives data on the screen, it doesnt require queuing methods.

  5. SYSTEM DESIGN

    Hardware design can easily perform on PSoC IDE called PSoC Creator 2.2, it provides hardware design, debugging of circuit and programming of device. The hardware design for industrial temperature data logger using PSoC as shown in fig c.

CONCLUION

Using PSOC we can sense temperature, humidity and light intensity simultaneously and displayed values on LCD. We can use this system to control the power consumption. The PSoC implementation of dual sensor system presents a new methodology to approach sensor solutions using silicon based transducer. The implementation takes the advantage of dynamically configuration changing for measuring different physical parameters. Its simplicity and effectiveness makes it suitable for fast prototyping and low cost solutions.
