Ashford University Programming Smart Irrigation System Paper

assignment for microcontroller and applications.. 2000 words .. 5 gays .. i will send the details later

To provide students with the knowledge and skills
required to interface MSP430 microcontroller with
Aim appropriate selections of sensors, devices ports and
peripherals in order to implement a simple Embedded
systems.
On completion, student should be able to:
1. Outline the hardware features of microcontroller
and its associated peripherals
Learning Outcomes 2. Apply basic I/O concepts and techniques in
common peripheral interface devices to
implement data transfer.
3. Create simple interface applications utilizing
Ports and peripherals in a microcontroller.
Task:
Coursework is a group work and each group can have the
maximum of 3 students. Each group can select any one of
the topics given in the Table 1 but the topics should be
equally distributed among the groups. A detailed final
report per group should be submitted on completion of the
assignment.

Smart Irrigation System
1. Selection of soil moisture sensor and water level
sensor with clear specifications of range of
measurements.
2. Selection of an appropriate port to connect sensor
signal.
3. Selection of water pump to sprinkle water.
4. Selection of display system to display the soil
condition.
5. Detailed circuit diagram showing the connection of
Microcontroller MSP430 interfacing to sensors,
water pumps and display system.
6. Algorithm and flow chart for the overall operations
7. Configurations of ports and peripherals for setting up
the input and output devices for the required
operations.
8. Discussion on the selection of devices and
microcontroller for the implementation of the
system with cost analysis.
The report must contain abstract, introduction, interface
diagram, software design, working principle, cost analysis,
discussions, conclusion and references (including
references from Ebrary). The student is expected to follow
the following font style, size and spacing:
Main heading 12 bold;
Subheading 11 bold;
Text font size 11;
Font face Arial;
And line spacing 1.5.
The final report should be concise providing the main
documentation of the given problem approximately 2000
words and to be submitted on or before 16s May 2021
Students should use their initiative to find suitable material
from the following sources:
i) The college library
ii) Relevant magazine and articles
iii) Lecture notes and lab handbook
iv) The Texas Instrument MSP430 web site
While preparing the report, take special care to see that
there are no grammatical errors or spelling mistakes.
