In this paper, a vector control system is implemented to drive CRPWM inverter fed induction motor. The rotor flux is estimated using the rotor coordinates flux model and the stator coordinates ramp comparison controller is used as a current controller. The microcontroller 80C196 is used for the computation of the estimation of the rotor flux, the speed controller, the flux controller, the vector rotation, and the phase transformation The current controller is implemented using the analog circuit in order to reduce the burden of the microcontroller. For the proposed system, the digital simulation is performed to examine the feasibility and the superior characteristics of the current controller and the system transient response is verified through the experiment.

This paper presents a technique to implement embedded systems using interrupts of the one-chip microcontroller with many peripherals based on a multiple finite state machines model. The multiple finite state machine model utilizes the structure of FSMD used for hardware design and the features of flow control by interrupts. The main finite state machine corresponds to the main program and the sub-state machines corresponds to the interrupt subroutines. Therefore, interrupts from the peripherals can be processed immediately in the sub-state machines. The request and reply variables are used to interface between the finite state machines. Additional operating system is not necessary for the context switching between the main state machine and the sub-state machine, because the flow-control caused by interrupt can be replaced with the switching. An embedded system modeled on multiple finite state machine with ASM charts can be easily implemented by the conversion of ASM charts into C-language programs. This implementation technique can be easily adopted to the hardware oriented embedded systems because of the detail description of the model and the fast response to the interrupt events in the sub-state machine.

Arduino is one of the open source microcontroller projects, and Arduino boards using AVR microcontrollers are commonly used. In general, AVR microcontrollers use ISP (In System Programming) upload, but in Arduino, serial upload through a bootloader is basically used, and a dedicated microcontroller is built into the board for this purpose. In order to use the ISP upload in Arduino, a dedicated upload device is required, which is not included in the Arduino board. In this paper, we propose a unified programmer that can handle ISP upload and serial upload through one dedicated microcontroller, and show that ISP and serial upload are possible using the unified programmer. In addition, the proposed unified programmer works as a USB-serial converter, supports serial communication with a computer, and it is also possible to burn the Arduino bootloader. All operations of the unified programmer can be confirmed through the experimental results.

This paper proposes the design method of low-cost vector control system for induction motor using the ARM Cortex-M4 microcontroller. This MCU can be used instead of expensive DSP to control the home appliances such as refrigerator, air conditioner, washing machine and so on. This paper explains the major features of Cortex-M4 for motor control and how to realize a vector-controlled inverter using it. The developed system is applied to 3-phase induction motor of 200[W] and experimental results show good performance similar to the system using TMS320F28335 DSP.

Test Interface Controller (TIC) provided by ARM Ltd. is widely used for functional testing of System-on-Chip (SoC) adopting Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture (AMBA) bus system. Accordingly, this architecture has a deficiency of not being able to concurrently shifting in and out the structural scan test patterns through the TIC and AMBA bus. This paper introduces a new AMBA based Test Access Mechanism (ATAM) for speedy testing of SoCs embedding ARM cores. While preserving the compatability with the ARM TIC, since scan in and out operations can be performed simultaneously, test application time through the expensive Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) can be drastically reduced.

In this paper, the transformerless three-phase line-connected PV PCS (photovoltaic power conditioning system) is proposed. An improved P&O (perturb and observe) MPPT (maximum power point tracking) algorithm that prevents local maximum power point tracking is proposed. By controlling the three-phase line-connected voltage source inverter using outer DC-link voltage controller, inner current controller and microcontroller friendly simplified space vector modulation (SVM) method, a unity power factor is achieved. An algorithm is suggested to control the DC-link voltage faster and more correctly for the increase system stability and power factor. All algorithms and controllers are implemented on a single-chip microcontroller and the superiority of the proposed algorithms and controllers is proved by experiments.

This paper shows how the performance of an ESC(Electronic Stability Control) system can be affected by the selection of in-vehicle network protocols such as CAN or FlexRay. The vehicle control performance under ESC operation is analyzed by EILS(ECU-In-the-Loop Simulation). The experimental set-up for the EILS of the ESC system consists of two 32-bit microcontroller boards communicated with CAN or FlexRay protocols. A 7-DOF vehicle model and an ESC algorithm with 2-DOF reference vehicle model are implemented on each microcontroller respectively. It is shown by experimental results that the ESC system using the FlexRay protocol can achieve better performance than that using the CAN protocol for a fast and accurate lane changing.

A pulsed Nd:YAG laser is used widely for materials processing and medical instrument. It's very important to control the laser energy density in those fields using a pulsed Nd:YAG laser. A pulse repetition rate and a pulse width are regarded as the most dominant factors to control the energy density of laser beam. In this paper, the alternating charge and discharge system was designed to adjust a pulse repetition rate This system is controlled by microprocessor and allows to replace an expensive condenser for high frequency to cheap one for low frequency. In addition, The microcontroller monitors the flow of cooling water, short circuit. and miss firing and so on. We designed Nd:YAG laser firmware with smart microcontroller, and want to explain general matters about the firmware from now.

The Air Quality Sensor(AQS), located near the fresh air inlet, serves to reduce the amount of pollution entering the vehicle cabin through the HVAC(heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) system by sending a signal to close the fresh air inlet door/ventilation flap when the vehicle enters a high pollution area. The sensor module which includes two independent sensing elements for responding to diesel and gasoline exhaust gases, and temperature sensor and humidity sensor was designed for intelligent AQS in automobile. With this sensor module, AVR microcontroller was designed with back propagation neural network to a powerful gas/vapor pattern recognition when the motor vehicles pass a pollution area. Momentum back propagation algorithm was used in this study instead of normal backpropagation to reduce the teaming time of neural network. The signal from neural network was modified to control the inlet of automobile and display the result or alarm the situation in this study. One chip microcontroller, ATmega 128L(ATmega Ltd., USA) was used for the control and display. And our developed system can intelligently reduce the malfunction of AQS from the dampness of air or dense fog with the backpropagation neural network and the input sensor module with four sensing elements such as reducing gas sensing element, oxidizing gas sensing element, temperature sensing element and humidity sensing element.
