Design and Simulate Electronic Circuit Using Proteus ISIS Professional

Proteus ISIS Professional software is a PCB design software integrated with the simulation of the circuit you design. It is integrated with real time simulation of the electronic circuit and test whether your designed circuit is working properly or not. If you have previously worked on basic and easy tools to design circuit, this software will also look more easy to use for your analysis work at next level.

In this software you can test your test code by loading the hex file in the circuit and test the circuit proper functioning. All Proteus PCB design products include an integrated shape based auto router and a basic SPICE simulation capability as standard. More advanced routing modes are included in Proteus PCB Design Level 2 and higher whilst simulation capabilities can be enhanced by purchasing the Advanced Simulation option and/or micro-controller simulation capabilities.
Important Information:
You can follow the video tutorials on Proteus to understand the basics and how to start with first circuit diagram. When you save Proteus file, it will be saved in two extension- PWI file and DBK file and whenever you save your file after little changes, Proteus software automatically creates a file with "last loaded" prefix adding before the name of a file. For example, if one saves Proteus circuit file with name "example", and when next time you open do little changes and press ctrl+s to save file, it will be automatically saved as "last loaded example".

You can download Proteus 8 demo version from http://labcenter.com

How to burn hex file in circuit in Proteus ISIS Professional-
You can test your program code by uploading the .hex file generated by any Embedded software or Keil µvision. It gives the idea of proper execution of your code before testing and implementing on your hardware. Follow the following steps to test the code of your project using Proteus ISIS professional.
Steps:-
1. Open your DBK file as mentioned earlier their will be creation of two types of file with extension PWI and DBK.

2. Double click on the microcontroller or main component of your circuit diagram.

3. Edit component window will be emerged immediately on the screen. See the fourth option- Program file in this window. There is an option to select and load the .hex file created by your Embedded software used to write the program. In Keil µvision, it is generated every time whenever you create new project and save it.

4. Now, the simple step to execute the program. Click on the play icon situated left-bottom corner to run the circuit loaded with hex file. If your circuit is correct, output will be displayed. follow below video to see and analyse the execution of code on Proteus created circuit.


Advantages of Proteus ISIS Professional:-
1. It gives the proper idea and implementation of your code and circuit before implementing on hardware.

2. It reduces the time on creating hardware and testing your errors directly on hardware. You can analyse your circuit and code both on Proteus and find the errors encountering before implementing on hardware.

3. Reduces project cost and software dependency.

Buzzer interface with 8051 microcontroller

Buzzer  is a electronic device that converts the electronic signal into buzzing noise, that is applied to it. It can be used as electronic bell or as quiz buzzer in many applications around us. Here, i world like to discuss the interfacing of a small buzzer with 8051 microcontroller and how different projects can be constructed. Buzzer Interfacing: This project shows the interface with AT89S52 microcontroller to a buzzer. When a push button is pressed, the buzzer will get ON and OFF ( number of times set in the code ) and then stops. Circuit Diagram: - The port P1 of the microcontroller is connected to buzzer. This type of connection is possible, if the current requirements of the buzzer is not more than 20mA. The output is in current source mode so that buzzer will turn ON when the output of the port is logic LOW. Switch is connected to port P3 which remains at logic HIGH by pull up resistor.  Code: #include "REG52.h" #define buz P1 sbit SW=P3^0; long i...

Comparison Chart Between 8051, 8052, 8031and 8751

8051 is a popular 8-bit microcontroller and has been used in many applications since Intel introduced it. Many 8051 architecture are produced by Triscend, Intel, Atmel, Philips, Infineon (Siemens), ISSI, and Max Corp. Today, 8051 microcontrollers may not be popular but, the 8051 architecture is still popular and employed in thousands of embedded applications. This 8-bit architecture has been different segments such as 8052, 8051, 8751 and 8031 . 8052 is the super-set of 8051 and 8031 is the memory-less microcontroller hence, it has interfaced with external ROM. Whereas, 8751 chip has only 4Kbytes of on chip UV-EPROM. Everyone knows about the general 40-pin microcontroller i.e. 8051 introduced by Intel in 1980s and consists of serial communication pins, Timer, Interrupts, RAM, ROM. It has 4 ports and each port has 8 pins, total 32 pins and other 8 pins for other purposes. 8052 is the super-set of 8051 that consists of 8K bytes of internal RAM (4K in 8051), 256 by...

Different ways to generate delays in 8051

The delay length in 8051 microcontroller depends on three factors: The crystal frequency the number of clock per machine the C compiler. The original 8051 used 1/12 of the crystal oscillator frequency as one machine cycle. In other words, each machine cycle is equal to 12 clocks period of the crystal frequency connected to X1-X2 pins of 8051. To speed up the 8051, many recent versions of the 8051 have reduced the number of clocks per machine cycle from 12 to four, or even one. The frequency for the timer is always 1/12th the frequency of the crystal attached to the 8051, regardless of the 8051 version. In other words, AT89C51, DS5000, and DS89C4x0 the duration of the time to execute an instruction varies, but they all use 1/12th of the crystal's oscillator frequency for the clock source. 8051 has two different ways to generate time delay using C programming, regardless of 8051 version. The first method is simply using Loop   program function in which Delay() funct...
