INVERTED PENDULUM By: Omer Mohamed Ebrahim Sharif Advisor: Professor Natarajan
Inverted Pendulum • Mass over its pivot point. • Unstable • Must be actively balanced in order to stay upward. • by applying a torque at the pivot point • by moving the pivot point horizontally
Overview • Single Joint • Stationary • Applying a torque at the pivot point
Subsystem • Omer: • Hardware • Power Electronics • H- Bridge • Motor testing • Ebrahim: • Software • PIC • Programming • Sensors
Block Diagram Micro- Processor Power Electronic Motor Pendulum X Y Sensors detects the movement of the Pendulum. Report position to the Microprocessor. Microprocessor controls the Motor. Motor balances the pendulum.
Pendulum • Two Feet long • Connected to a smaller Pole • Ball Bearing Joint • Smaller Pole controlled by the motor • Type of wood: Basswood • Strong and light
PIC Microprocessor • PIC16F690 • ECE 4951 • Wide Operating Voltage Range (2.0V-5.5V) • 10-bit PWM with 1, 2 or 4 output channels, max frequency 20 kHz • A/D Converter
Software: • PICKit 2 Programmer • C Language • MikroC Compiler
Sensor • MMA7361L • Three Axis Low-g Micromachined Accelerometer
Sensor’s Features • Low Current Consumption: 400 uA • Low Voltage Operation: 2.2 V – 3.6 V • Fast Turn On Time (0.5 ms Enable Response Time) • High Sensitivity (800 mV/g @ 1.5g) • Signal conditioning with low pass filter • Low Cost
Sensor’s Connections • 0.1 μF capacitor on Vdd to decouple the power source. • 3.3nF capacitor on the outputs of the accelerometer to minimize clock noise
Sensor to Microprocessor • A/D converter
Electric Motor • GH12-1634T • Operating Voltage: 4.5 – 12 V • Current : 293 mA • Speed: 145 RPM • Torque: 850 g-cm
H-Driver • PIC provides low current (20mA). • SN75441ONE H-Bridge motor driver. • 1-A Output-Current Capability Per Driver
Cost of Components Total Cost = $ 88.74
