Sensors, H-Bridge, main circuit
« on: January 04, 2011, 09:25:27 AM »
Hello
I am new in this forum and this is my first post. So please don't punish me too hard if something goes wrong :]

So, I need some help with my project. Especially with electronics.

In this circuit you can see, the main board - Atmega16. Also 8 sensors with IR transmitter and IR receiver circuit. Moreover, there are circuit for motor- H-Bridge, L293D. I am also planing to use PWM.  For detecting obstacles, I have already bought ultrasound sensor (transmitter and receiver). Every circuit have her own by-pass. Also there are three different power supplies.  LM7805 for Atmega16 , H-Bridge, IR and ultrasound sensors. LM317 for motor. They need 3V each. There will be two motors.  And also LM7809 for ultrasound sonar.
 I am planing to use 3 Li-ion battery's for whole robot. They are from laptop battery. Each one is 3,7V and 2200mah

All the mechanics are almost done. But its not about that. I have some problems with all whose circuits.
There is "Ping" contact in ultrasonic transmitter. And "Frequency_Test" in ultrasonic receiver. I don't know where to connect them. I mean to which contact of At-mega16 I should connect them.

Also H-Bridge. There are contact 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A in L293D. Can I connect them to PD0, PD1, PD2, PD3 of ATmega16?

And the whole IR circuit. Is it schematically good?

Thanks in advance for all of You, who helps me :]

PS. sorry for the mistakes. My English skills aren't good enough.

Hi,

And the whole IR circuit. Is it schematically good?
No, T1 should be where either R2 or R3 is (depending on the action wanted; dark or light sensing).
As it is it will do nothing but change the impedance of the circuit a bit, but the voltage will still be close to 2.5V.
(It will change slightly, of course, due to the impedance change, but in the right place, you'll get a lot more amplitude change).

The resistor you keep (R2 or R3) should probably be a bit larger in value )depending on the photo transistor).

A rather fast and fairly heavy robot with quite large wheels needs what? A lot of power?
