In this letter, we study the impact of single event upsets (SEUs) in space or defense electronic systems which use memory devices such as EEPROM, and SRAM. We built a microcontroller test board to measure the effects of protons on electronic devices at various radiation levels. We tested radiation hardening at beam current, and energy levels, measured the phenomenon of SEUs, and addressed possible reasons for SEUs.

Continuous monitoring of environmental parameters provides farmers with useful information, which can improve the quality and productivity of crops grown in greenhouses. The objective of this study was to develop a greenhouse environment measurement system using a low-cost microcontroller with open-source software. Greenhouse environment parameters measured were air temperature, relative humidity, and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) concentration. The ranges of the temperature, relative humidity, and $CO_2$ concentration were -40 to $120^{\circ}C$, 0 to 100%, and 0 to 10,000 ppm, respectively. A $128{\times}64$ graphic LCD display was used for real-time monitoring of the greenhouse environments. An Arduino Uno R3 consisted of a USB interface for communicating with a computer, 6 analog inputs, and 14 digital input/output pins. A temperature/relative humidity sensor was connected to digital pins 2 and 3. A $CO_2$ sensor was connected to digital pins 12 and 13. The LCD was connected to digital pin 1 (TX). The sketches were programmed with the Arduino Software (IDE). A measurement system including the Arduino board, sensors, and accessories was developed (totaling $244). Data for the environmental parameters in a venlo-type greenhouse were obtained using this system without any problems. We expect that the low-cost microcontroller using open-source software can be used for monitoring the environments of plastic greenhouses in Korea.

Based on the 4-compartmental pharmacokinetic model developed in PART1, target-controlled infusion(TCI) pump system was designed and evaluated. The TCI system consists of digital board including microcontroller and digital signal process(DSP), analog board, motor-driven actuator, user friendly interface, power management and controller. It provides two modes according to the drugs: plasma target concentration and effect target concentration. Anaesthetist controls the depth of anaesthesia for patients by adjusting the required concentration to maintain both plasma and effect site in drug concentration. The data estimated in DSP include infusion rate, initial load dose, and rotation number of motor encoder. During TCI operation, plasma concentration. effect site concentration, awaken concentration, context-sensitive decrement time and system error information are displayed in real time. Li-ion battery guarantees above 2 hours without power line failure. For high reliability of the system, two microprocessors were used to perform independent functions for both pharmacokinetic algorithm and motor control strategy.

In this paper, we propose a design of microwave motion detector using X-band doppler radar sensor to minimize the power consumption. To minimize the power consumption and implement battery operated system, pulse input with 2 KHz, 4% duty cycle is exerted on the doppler radar sensor. In order to simplify the process of working with ATmega2560 microcontroller unit, Arduino compatible board is designed and implemented. Arduino is open source hardware and many library software is published as open source tools. Smartphone app is also proposed and designed as a real-time user interface of the motion detector. The SQLite database on the Android mobile operating system is used for recording raw data of motion detection for post-processing job, such as fast Fourier transform (FFT). Bluetooth interface module is implemented on the motion detection board as a wireless communication interface to the smartphone. The speed of human movement is identified by post-processing FFT.

Arduino is a platform designed for non-experts to easily utilize microcontrollers for various projects. In an educational environment, various boards running on the Arduino platform are used for software education, but ATmega128, which was widely used before Arduino, is not being used. In this paper, we make an Arduino compatible board based on ATmega128 microcontroller and check the operation on the Arduino platform.

CDMA tele-Controller system is designed with a low power consumption 8 bit microcontroller, ATmega 2560. ATmega 2560 microcontroller consists of 4 UART (Universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter) ports, 4 kbytes EEPROM, 256 kbytes flash memory, 4 kbytes SRAM. 4 URAT is used for CDMA modem, communication for GPS module, EEPROM is used for saving a configuration for program running, a flash memory of 256 kbytes is used for storing a F/W(Firm Ware), and SRAM is used for stack, storing memory of global variables while program running. We have tested the communication distance between the coast station and sea by the fabricated control board using 800 MHz CDMA modem and GPS module, which is building for the navigational aid management system by remote control. As a results, the receiving signal strength is above -80 dBm, and then the characteristics of the control board implemented more than 10 km in the distance of the communication.

Field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are widely used for verification in chip development. In order to verify the circuit programmed to the FPGA, data must be input to the FPGA. There are many ways to communicate with a chip through a PC and an external board, but the simplest and easiest way is to use a universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART). Most recently, most circuits are designed to be internally connected to the advanced microcontroller bus architecture (AMBA) bus. In other words, to verify the designed circuit easily and simply, data must be transmitted through the AMBA bus through the UART. Also the AMBA bus has been available in various versions since version 4.0 recently. Advanced peripheral bus (APB) is suitable for simple testing. In this paper, we design a circuit for UART-to-APB interface. Circuits designed using Verilog-HDL were implemented in Altera Cyclone FPGAs and were capable of operating at speeds up to 380 MHz.

In the Total Artificial Heart (TAH) and Ventricular Assist Device (VAD), the size implanting the internal controller into human body is very serious problem. Hence, we need the size reduction of that controller for safe implantation. Using PSD302 chip for microcontroller-based applications, we could decrease the number of components in the digital control board and miniaturize the digital control board. We could replace a ROM, RAM, and a latch with that single chip, so the size of the newly developed board could be half the previous board.

The convergence of education and technology has been emphasized, leading to the application of educational technology (EdTech) in the field of education. EdTech provides learner-centered, customized learning environments through various media and learning situations. In this paper, we designed hardware for EdTech-based educational tools for IoT security education in the field of cybersecurity education. The hardware is based on a dual microcontroller unit (MCU) within a single board, allowing for both attack and defense to be performed. To leverage various sensors in the Internet of Things (IoT), the hardware is modularly designed. From an educational perspective, utilizing EdTech in cybersecurity education enhances engagement by incorporating tangible physical teaching aids. The proposed research suggests that the design of IoT security education hardware can serve as a reference for simplifying the creation of a security education environment for embedded hardware, software, sensor networks, and other areas that are challenging to address in traditional education..
