Remote AC Power Control by Android Application with LCD Display
Introduction ďƒ˜ The project is designed to control AC power to a load by using firing angle control of thyristor. Efficiency of such power control is very high compared to any other method. Remote operation is achieved by any smartphone/Tablet etc., with Android OS, upon a GUI (Graphical User Interface) based touch screen operation. The project uses zero crossing point of the waveform which is detected by a comparator whose output is then fed to the microcontroller.

Embedded Systems A combination of hardware and software which together form a component of a larger machine. An example of an embedded system is a microprocessor that controls an automobile engine. An embedded system is designed to run on its own without human intervention, and may be required to respond to events in real time.

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Most common LCDs connected to the microcontrollers are 16x2 and 20x2 displays. This means 16 characters per line by 2 lines and 20 characters per line by 2 lines, respectively. The standard is referred to as HD44780U It refers to the controller chip which receives data from an external source (and communicates directly with the LCD.

Thyristor A thyristor is a solid-state semiconductor device with four layers of alternating N and P-type material. It acts exclusively as a bistable switch, conducting when the gate receives a current trigger. Continuing to conduct while the voltage across the device is not reversed (forward-biased).

Thyristor Modes of Operation: ďƒ˜ In the normal "off" state, the device restricts current to the leakage current. ďƒ˜ When the gate-to-cathode voltage exceeds a certain threshold the device turns "on" and conducts current.

SCR A silicon-controlled rectifier (or semiconductor-controlled rectifier) is a four-layer solid state device that controls current. The name "silicon controlled rectifier" or SCR is General Electric's trade name for a type of thyristor. An SCR consists of four layers of alternating P and N type semiconductor materials. Silicon is used as the intrinsic semiconductor, to which the proper dopants are added.

What is Android? Android is an open-source operating system which means that any manufacturer can use it in their phones free of charge. It was built to be truly open. For example, an application can call upon any of the phone’s core functionality such as making calls, sending text messages, or using the camera.
