2. LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Write software routines in Embedded C to configure and use device
peripherals using MikroC and PIC Burner.
Data and Program memory organisation and how to access them
in PIC Microcontroller.
Programming and interfacing of the PIC16F73 microcontroller.
PCB Designing using OrCad (Capture and Layout), PCB Etching.
Interfacing and Programming Minor Robots. Driving Motors
and other outputs using controller peripherals.
Embedded System: Microcontrollers Over Microprocessors,
PIC Microcontroller
3. Embedded system over simple electronic system :
Whole design become more secure using software.
System become more compact
It reduce the cost and size of product
It reduces the power consumption.
In Embedded system the
processing of electronic
hardware is control or monitor
by the software through CPU
chip (MP or MC).

7. ORCAD
(CADENCE)
CAPTURE
The Capture CIS links component
information, such as PCB package
footprint data where one can place
parts; wires; buses and draw graphics
with the circuit symbol in the
schematic and create the net list
LAYOUT
OrCAD's Layout gives functionality to
define placement, perform critical
routing, design rule check, Copper
pouring, Drill settings, Silk screen setting
and design complete circuit boards
where autorouting is not needed.

10. PROJECT
DTMF CONTROLLED ROBOT
The major building blocks of this
project are Regulated Power Supply,
GSM Modem/Phone, Microcontroller
based Control Unit, Robot
Mechanical Assembly, DTMF Drivers.
DTMF Controlled Wireless Robot” is
capable of receiving a set of command
(instructions) in the form of DTMF
tones and performs the necessary
actions. Here DTMF stands for “Dual
tone multiple frequency.
The mobile unit which is dedicated at
the robot is interfaced with an
intellectual device called
Microcontroller so that it takes the
responsibility of decoding the tones
received and perform the
corresponding predefined tasks such
as move front or back, left or right
etc.
The micro controller is also interfaced
with few DC motors in order to move
the robot in different directions. The
ON and OFF of the DC motors depends
on the direction it has to move which
is the complete responsibility of the
controller to take those intelligent
decisions.
12. LEARNING OUTCOMES
