Week18. Application and implications
assignment
Propose a final project masterpiece that integrates the range of units covered,
answering:
What will it do?
Who's done what beforehand?
What will you design?
What materials and components will be used?
Where will come from?
How much will they cost?
What parts and systems will be made?
What processes will be used?
What questions need to be answered?
How will it be evaluated?
Your project should incorporate 2D and 3D design,
additive and subtractive fabrication processes,
electronics design and production,
microcontroller interfacing and programming,
system integration and packaging
Where possible, you should make rather than buy
the parts of your project
Projects can be separate or joint, but need to show individual
mastery of the skills, and be independently operable
Vacuum Tube Amp.-> Audio Selector + IC Amp Speaker
Project Change Note :
My first project concept is something to oriented only circuitry base, and also it needs at least
4 inductors system and
no microcomputer. In fact, I'm hardly to make sure to follow the requirements of final project.
So finally I have to
decide to change the project to possible design for final but, I maintain the original concept of mine.
And, also I remain some possibilities to take vacuum circuitry after this project.
This amp makes amplify the incomming signal sounds to make a large.
This old fassioned audio device do not have good power efficient. So I want to try it make a
little bit good efficiency.
->Change Note:
I focus on one pair of sounds(stereo) from multiple sounds resurces input and put
some more infomation of sounds level (such as VU meter). For amplification, just take IC amp circuit.
But, it will recive sources handle with microcontroller
Who's done what beforehand?
Well, today there are so many manufacturer still exist, so I'm not the first.
However, this project will give me a some improvement to understand of analog circuit.
And, much more I think about circuit. If so that circuit and programs belongs to me.
What will you design?
I will design about electronics and mechatronics
What materials and components will be used?
I'll use the plastic filament for 3D printer, also acryl, PCB and programming.
Where will come from?
Now, Most of expensive system come from Europe.
For the economic model, alot of came from China.
How much will they cost?
Generally This kind of goods sometimes expensive.
In economic model, can be under 100 dolors.
Estmate for BOM
What parts and systems will be made?
except the vacuum set, there are PCB, casing, lasercutter etc.
->Change Note: Vacuum amp set will be change to IC amp circuit.
What processes will be used?
3D printer, lasercutter and ROLAND machine for PCB.
What questions need to be answered?
What is the schedule?
How will it be evaluated?
At first search for circuit of vacuum and test about it.
->Change Note: Instead of Vacuum amp set,I will be just focus on analog mux circuit.
Your project should incorporate 2D and 3D design,
additive and subtractive fabrication processes,
Most of case must be done 3D design, also needs the 2D design for lasercutter.
electronics design and production,
For the PCB design, use CAD system.
microcontroller interfacing and programming,
For sounds incoming and amplifying the through the amp, controller
control the vumeter and LCD to display.
system integration and packaging
Where possible, you should make rather than buy
the parts of your project
Projects can be separate or joint, but need to show individual
