Progress Report 2nd Week

6 Testing of Electrical Component 26/04/2021 Sensor need further test
- 9V to 5V and 9V to -5V Regulator works well
although heats up quite quickly (Heat Sink)
- Resistor and Capacitor ordered tested
- Transistor works well
- Pressure Transducer testing is hard to
conduct due to small voltage output of 40mV
7 Testing of IC 27/04/2021 Test IC in circuit
- IC testing shows mixed result some work
some does not (Need further investigation)
- AT Mega 32 and board work well with 9V
battery slot
8 Protoboard testing of power supply Circuit 28/04/2021 OK
- Power supply circuit of reference can be
used with little adjustment due to different
component used

- (-5v) output have some ripple
- Motor can be powered by the 5v
9 Assembly and soldering of power supply 29/04/2021 OK
circuit to PCB
- Separated PCB for power circuit due to
safety
- Transfer to PCB and soldering went
smoothly without any problem
- Power for motor and AT Mega 32 works
10 Protoboard testing and further investigation 30/04/2021 Senor / IC may be problematic
of IC in analog circuit Investigate further

Progress Report 3rd Week

11 Further Investigation of Analog Circuit 3/05/2021 Use arduino for debugging
- Sensor and IC Analog Circuit output cannot May need Expert assistance
be read by controller (sensor output is too
small to be detected by arduino and amplifier
IC is not working correctly)
12 Further Investigation of Analog Circuit 4/05/2021 Expert assistance help
- Start writing program to read analog circuit
output for debugging circuit issues
- Output of the IC can be read by arduino,
however signal is not right or as expected
13 Further Investigation of Analog Circuit 5/05/2021 OK problem found
- Problem may arises due to faulty sensor, IC,
Regulator or Electric diagram
- Crosscheck of sensor IC Regulator and
Electric diagram
- Pneumatic circuit is not causing any problem
- Pneumatic component, display, micro-
controller and amplifier IC works fine
- Regulator for -5V is under performing
(Power supply circuit may cause the problem)
14 Fixing of power supply circuit 6/05/2021 Regulator + some component
- Under performing regulator is faulty and need replacement
cannot be fixed (try to fix but with no success)
- Change of power supply circuit regulator is Order Placed by Purchasing
needed (new component and PCB order
placed)
15 Fixing Power Supply Circuit 7/05/2021 OK
- Salvaging regulator and other component
- Program for mega 32 is nearly completed
Break (National Holiday)

Progress Report 4th Week

16 Retesting of Analog Circuit Output with 24/05/2021
new power supply circuit
- Re-soldering and re-wiring of new power
supply circuit to new PCB board
- Signal from the IC can be seen however
some noise is still present and signal from
IC is not always stable (electrical design
may need revision)
