Week 6 (FYP 1)
Activity: Make a research on the new sensor which is current sensor Objective: To understand more detail about how current sensor work To figure out that current sensor is suitable to use in this project Content: make some research about the connection between current sensor and any loads make a research to know the circuit diagram and Arduino coding to programmed the sensor Result: The information that i get from the research, the current sensor ACS712 can use at any load DC or AC. The input voltage is +5V for typical applications ACS712 Current Sensor Sensor Specifications: Measures both AC and DC current Provides isolation from the load Easy to integrate with MCU, since it outputs analog voltage Circuit Diagram for the sensor and load Conclusion: Based on the information, the current sensor is quite easy to install in the stamping machine. Nevertheless, I need to discuss with Sir Shaiful whether he agrees or he has other additional ideas...
