...Objective: The objective of this report is to go over the construction of the electronic piano, tools and materials. Introduction: This is a simple toy piano using a 555 timer IC and a few basic components to create tones that that is sound thru the speaker. An electronic piano consist of several electric components that produce a voltage signal with a varying frequency. • Tools: 1. Soldering iron A hand tool that is used in the soldering process it supplies heat to melt the solder so that it can flow into the joint between two work pieces. 2. Diagonal pliers Used in trimming the excess leads closely as possible to the PCB. 3. Solder A fusible metal alloy used to join together metal work pieces and having a melting point below that of the work piece. 4. Soldering iron holder and cleaning sponge A standing iron holder is a tool that holds the soldering iron when it’s not in use. The holder also house the cleaning sponge which is used to clean off excess solder from the iron • Materials: 1. Printed circuit board Mechanically supports and electrically connects electronic components using conductive tracks, pads and other features etched from copper sheets laminated onto a non-conductive substrate. 2. NE555P integrated circuit An integrated circuit (chip) used in a variety of timer, pulse generation, and oscillator applications. The 555 can be used to provide time delays, as an oscillator, and as a flip-flop element. 3. IC socket A socket for the IC...

...For example, fabrics that have been in contact with chlorine bleach must be avoided according to Welter and Curto, as silver chloride forms over silver coins, making them turn black. The effects of chlorine would negatively impact Kennedy half dollar coins produced before 1970, but would only have small impacts on coins made after 1970, as these minted coin do not contain silver. The 1980 coin which contains nickel, instead of silver, is more durable. Nickel is the hardest coinage metal, and it does not oxidize or tarnish so...

...ABSTRACT ‘AUTOMATED ATTENDANCE SYSTEM ’ is designed to collect and manage student’s attendance records from RFID devices installed in a class rooms. Based on the verification of student identification at the entrances system, the RFID tag can be embedded in the ID card of the individual. First to activate a new session(hour) the teacher swipes her RFID tag this marks a new attendance session during which the students can swipe once to increment their attendance. The RFID module operate in 125Khz range, when a tag passes through its vicinity, the module senses its presence and extracts its unique serial number and passes this code into microcontroller which matches the code to the correct person and increments the attendance of the particular person.

...Chapter 3 Introduction to Microcontrollers 3.1 Just a Start Up A microcontroller (also MCU or ¥ìC) is a computer-on-a-chip. It is a type of micro-computer element that emphasizing high integration, low power consumption, self-sufficiency and cost-effectiveness, in contrast to a general-purpose microprocessor. In addition to the usual arithmetic and logic elements of a general purpose microprocessor, the microcontroller typically integrates additional elements such as read-write memory for data storage, read-only memory, such as flash memory for code storage and permanent data storage memory, peripheral devices, and input/output interfaces. Microcontrollers often operate at very low speed compared to modern day microprocessors, but this is adequate for many typical applications. They consume relatively little power (milliwatts), and will generally have the ability to sleep while waiting for an interesting peripheral event such as a button press to wake them up again to do something. Power consumption while sleeping may be just nanowatts, making them ideal for low power and long lasting battery applications. Microcontrollers are frequently used in automatically controlled products and devices, such as automobile engine control systems, remote controls, office machines, appliances, power tools, and toys. By reducing the size, cost, and power consumption compared to a design using a separate microprocessor, memory, and input/output devices, microcontrollers make it...

One of the main concerns is static electricity also referred to as electro static discharge. Voltage as little as 300 volts can damage the integral components to put in comparison; when you feel static electricity is already 3000 volts. Here are some protocols to reduce or eliminate ESD. - Keep the temperature around 75 degrees - Humidity between 68 and 72 % would be ideal to reduce dry air the inducing ESD. - The use of a static mat would be preferred; ensure the mat is grounded and wear the grounding strap according the specifications. - Keep pets away, especially cats as they...

...common computer abbreviations and acronyms Content Summary Major Components in the System Unit Case A computer case is the enclosure that contains the main components of a computer. The size and shape of a computer case is usually determined by the form factor of the motherboard. In computing, "form factor" is an industry term for the size, shape and format of computer motherboards, power supplies, cases, and add-on cards. Most desktop computers have a form factor that is some variant of ATX. A case designed for an ATX motherboard and power supply may take on several external forms, such as a vertical tower (designed to sit on the floor, height > width) or a flat desktop (height < width). Computer cases usually include: sheet metal enclosures for a power supply unit and drive bays; a rear panel that can accommodate peripheral connectors protruding from the motherboard and expansion slots; a power button, a reset button, and LEDs to indicate power status as well as hard drive and network activity. Major component locations * The motherboard is usually screwed to the case along its largest face, which could be the bottom or the side of the case depending on the form factor and orientation. * Form factors such as ATX provide a back panel with cut-out holes to expose I/O ports provided by integrated peripherals, as well as expansion slots which may optionally expose additional ports provided by expansion cards. * The power supply unit is often housed at the...

...of the Bridge Pod. Then, the Bio Amp cable was attached to the Bio Amp socket on the PowerLab. The three lead wires were attached to the Bio Amp cable. Other materials such as dissecting dish, metal pins, scissors, forceps, strong thread with a barbless hook, acetylcholine solution, epinephrine solution, and Frog Ringer's solutions in cold, warm, and room temperature were collected. The force transducer was zeroed by adjusting the baseline value to zero. A weight between 5 and 50 grams was hanged from the force transducer and was recorded for five seconds to calibrate the force transducer. The N value was calculated and the calibration was implemented. A double-pithed frog was dissected by making a longitudinal and lateral incision along the ventral surface of the abdomen with scissors. The tissue and the sternum was cut away to expose the thoracic cavity. The pericardium was cut away with the forceps to expose the heart. The force transducer was attached to the heart by lifting up the apex of the heart and piercing it with a hook. The tension on the thread was adjusted and the thread was left perpendicular to the table, instead of an angle. The lead wire alligator clips were attached to the pins holding the frog to record the ECG. The red lead was attached to the left forelimb, the black lead was attached to the right forelimb, and the green lead was attached to the right hindlimb. In the first exercise, the baseline heart rate was observed from the force generated during the...
