Project 1 - Controlling a DC motor using PWM and monitoring its Running status

Project1

Aim:

To implement a system on the simulator for controlling a DC motor using L293 motor driver, monitor its status and print the running status of motor on the LCD Display.

Objective:

• Implement a system on simulator for Controlling the DC motor using L293 motor driver.
• Displaying the running status of DC motor on the LCD display.

DC Motor:

• A DC motor is defined as a class of electrical motors that convert direct current electrical energy into mechanical energy.
• When kept in a magnetic field, a current-carrying conductor gains torque and develops a tendency to move.
• Thus when electric fields and magnetic fields interact, a mechanical force arises.
• This is the principle on which the DC motors work.

L293 Motor Driver:

• L293d IC is known as a motor driver.
• It is a low voltage operating device like other ICs.
• The other ICs could have the same functions like L293d but they cannot provide the high voltage to the motor.
• L293d provides the continuous bidirectional Direct Current to the Motor.
• The Polarity of current can change at any time without affecting the whole IC or any other device in the circuit.
• L293d has an internal H-bridge installed for two mot

OUTPUT:

Power Switch: ON, Direction Switch: OFF, Speed Switch: OFF :: Motor is TURN ON Condition

Power Switch: ON, Direction Switch: ON, Speed Switch: OFF :: Motor is TURN ON and Direction of Rotation: REVERSE
