Abstract

In this study, a thermal control system which applied a Peltier device for the polymerase chain reaction(PCR) machine is to be designed. Here in order for it to easily follow the characteristics of the thermal cycle existing for gene amplification of the PCR sample, a PCR control board utilizing a thermal sensor, a Peltier, and a 8 bit microprocessor is made up. Especially a fuzzy type PD control algorithm is applied periodically in time response, and control system is implemented. For that matter, the characteristic data of subject system is obtained and analysed to begin with. Based on this analysed data, the proposed control algorithm is applied and an evaluation of the performance of the whole system take place through the PC.
