Week 13

Talk To My Hand ..

In this week, we have final briefing for industrial training. So, the coordinator briefing for our industrial training is Sir Azmi Tajuddin that give more explaination about the highlight dates, submission dates,submission reply form, letter form and resume. At the same time, he also tell us about what to do during industrial training.

So, in this week, i and my partner prepare and make the design FYP poster with the size of A1. The design for our FYP poster need to be placed at our booth during the Exhibition day. The content of our FYP poster, must follow the guideline that given and make a more details information such as introduction, abstract, objective, methodology, results, reference, conclusion and others important information. Then, make sure the project is done and succeed with understand all the circuit operation and each components that being used for our project.

    

Week 12

The mission is complete .

In this week, our project is almost complete after make renovation my project. So, this is model for our project "Water Level detector" .

This project is easy and simple with the model prototype that we create and our project is ready to make presentation to our assessors. Then, from the presentation, we can explain more detail about our project from advantage and disadvantage, and lastly they can easy to understand the scope of our project.

This is model for our project, we used connection two probes to detect water level

What we can see, we used two circuit to make sure detect and make connection of our project

So, this is result for our project after we make long term to complete

Week 11

Prepare mission..

This week, i and my partner going to the briefing at TTL 1 around 4.30 p.m to 5.30 p.m. From the briefing, we has told to what should we do and make planning around week 14 until week 17. The information that we got is we can claim the money for FYP project which total maximum is RM 300 per student by term and condition.

At the same time, we meet our supervisor discuss about our project if functioning or not. We also have two circuit after make renovation and refer to him. So, we have the new simple circuit that already we make troubleshoot the problem.

The mission is complete after we renew the circuit and make troubleshoot the problem.

Here, this is my partner alif that my twins. We take picture together with my supervisor.

Haa...this is my friends that also have same supervisor. We are young with the good smile..hehe.. wow ! :D

Week 10

Troubleshoot circuit

In this week, what we plan is to check troubleshoot the circuit. But, at the same time, we decide to prepare fyp report. In the report, we need to follow the guidelines that can refer to website fyp.bmi.unikl.edu.my.

Objective :

> Carry out an inspection on a circuit if there is short circuit

> Look at assembly of each component with polarity

> Check the current circuit from input to output circuit

Content / Procedure :

> Do troubleshoot using a multimeter

> When do troubleshoot must refer to schematic diagram

> Referring technician for help

Result and Analysis :

> Problem can be detected

> Troubleshoot very important in the project because every problem that occur can be detected

 So, after we solder the component, we check and analyze that it's have a problem at the circuit. In our operation project, "when water bridges the tracks, base current flows and switch on the transistor, sounding the alarm." But our problem is when we connect the battery at the circuit, its sounding and led is lights up before the probes touches the water. So, our solution is to create a new simple circuit which follow the concept project when detect the water, the led will be lights up and sound the alarm. 

So, this is circuit that we doing to troubleshoot the problem of circuit to detect and solve it.

This is new circuit that we make renovation to solve the circuit problem 

Conclusion :

> After finish the troubleshoot at our project, we can solve the problem on a circuit and we are also able to detect every problem in the circuit.

Week 9

Make installation component on the PCB board.

In week 9, I and my partner alif make the assembly and installation component on the PCB board.

The objective is to know how to put a component that has a polarity. We also need to know the result to be obtained and know how to install component on the PCB board.

Content/Procedure:

-  Make sure the component is in the proper place.

-  Component soldering as appropriate as there is some component that cannot be soldered too long.

-  Provide sufficient equipment prior to installation component on the PCB board.

-  Refer to the technician if there is a problem.

Results and analysis

- The circuit is done with soldering

- Can see the result if the circuit function

Figure 1: Before start soldering, we used black tape to make sure the omponent not drop during solder

Figure 2: After that, we solder the component with lead and carefully

Figure 4: Lastly, after make soldering, we used cutter to cut the component leg

Conclusion

-  Here we can learn how to install component on the PCB board, especially if there is polarity. We can also learn techniques for soldering in the right way. Furthermore, we can get the result of the function circuitry and analysis.

week 8

Drilling process

In week 8, what we plan in this week is doing drilling process at UV board. This is equipment that we used to make drilling process. It look easy to doing this but when drilling and make testing, it really hard because we need to be careful and focus to control and drilling at board. So, this process maybe take the time in 30 minutes to complete this process. My project is simple and easy to make and we can see the result. We also very grateful because the first time we make it not complete but we try the second time and my project is complete. Thanks to my partner because doing together to complete the project, we also never give up.  

   
                                               



                     

                                  

                 

Week 7

 Produce the PCB step by step

       
The objective is to produce the PCB by etching process and then also do the step by step of PCB etching process. We also recognize the equipment use to etching the PCB start with UV light process until drilling process.

Content/procedure:

  - Photocopy the PCB layout in to OHP sheet using laser printer.

  - Put OHP sheet and the photo-etch board into a UV exposure unit for 60 second.
  - Wash the developing using ferric chloride.

  - Transfer the PCB into etching tank and do the operation for 4-5 minutes.

  - Make sure the connection of PCB is in right continuity.

Result and analysis:

  -All the process of producing the PCB is done step by step.

  -All the components are checked to avoid a short circuit between the pin and the components is in the correct connection and polarity.

This is my best friend. we produce PCB board together..WOW yeay! He3 :D

That all today...We can continue story next week yaa...See later k ! meow3.. :D

Conclusion:

The method are used in this PCB process are essential so that no important steps are skipped. Skipping any of these may cause failure to the outcome of the project. The steps are done is to helped us troubleshoot the hardware and software if any complications should arise.

Week 6

(Future & Spirit)

In this week, we were briefed about the training industry by Sir Azmi Tajuddin at 4.00 pm-5.00 pm at TTL G04. At the briefing, we were briefed on how to apply for a place practical application in industry training. Furthermore, practical start date for early next year 7 january 2013 until 26 April 2013. All students have to find their practical place. From industrial training, we will be able to experience a lot indirectly learn while working .

Week 5

Construct the circuit

In this week, what we plan is construct the circuit on breadboard. We also can refer from the schematics diagram, before we start to construct the circuit on breadboard. Then, we also can see the result after construct the circuit.

--> This is circuit diagram for the Water Level Detector .

What we plan, here is all component that we already want to construct on breadboard .

--> This is the result after we finish put the component on breadboard. So, what we plan have successful by doing this, after construct the circuit on breadboard .

week 4 ( Hari Raya Aidilfitri )

In week 4 is a holiday for us. From this week, we start holiday in 1 week . During this week, we happy and enjoy with our family to celebrate Eid Mubarak or "Hari Raya Aidilfitri" for all muslim in the world, after fasting in one month . We make the reunion with all family member to celebrate this celebration. From this reunion, it also can strengthen the relationship in our family in celebration seasons.

Then, in this holiday, i and my partner doing some research for our component before testing at breadboard.

Week 3

Go To Jalan Pasar

In this week, i and my partner decided going to Jalan Pasar at Pudu in Kuala Lumpur. The reason we went there because we wanted to buy parts and equipment for our project. The shop name that we want buy component is CALTUS SDN. BHD. The location of shop at 3, Lorong Yap Hin, Off Jalan Pasar, Pudu, 55100 Kuala Lumpur . We are very grateful that all component we buy is all available for our project.

This is receipt for costing and price units for the components that i want to buy. So the overall cost is RM 13.95.

This is the list of components that we take from magazine FYP to buy at Jalan Pasar. All the components of our project can be found there.

 In this situation,my job is made easier because I know where to go to buy a component.I also know where to refer if my circuit there are problem.I can refer technician if lecturer busy. I think Jalan Pasar is a good place for student to make the project because every component is there and all job also make easier.

Week 2
