Synopsis

On
RF Energy meter

Introduciton
In this project we show that how we interface the digital energy meter to the
easy recharge unit and convert this meter into RF feedback ELECTRICITY
METER By using this technique we show that how we convert all meter
with the prepaid logic. When any concept is prepaid then there is a security
of misuse of electricity uses. Normally in every postpaid connection bill is
much higher then the prepaid. When there is postpaid, no body want t take
care of the wastage, but at the end of month when bill is present then bill is
paid by the house inchrage, small workers in the office, employees in the
school, in all the private and govt office no body want to take care of the
wastage. So we add some innovative idea to avoid and save this valuable
energy for every one. We will use RF system to give alert for less balance.
In this project we use one lcd screen. LCD screen display the balance
amount every time, LCD screen not only show the balance amount but at the
same time lcd display the unit consumption. When the balance is zero then
output is off.
Now for continue the voltage we must need to recharge the unit from the
mobile phone.

5 VOLT REGULATED POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT.

In this project firstly we use one step down transformer. Step down
transformer step down the voltage from 220 volt Ac to 12 volt Ac. This Ac
voltage is further converted into DC with the help of rectifier circuit. In
rectifier circuit we use four diode. All the diodes are arranges as a bridge
rectifier circuit. Output of this rectifier is pulsating Dc. To convert this
pulsating DC into smooth dc we use one capacitor as a filter components.
Capacitor converts the pulsating Dc into smooth DC with the help of its
charging and discharging effect.
Output of the rectifier is now regulated with the help of IC regulator circuit.
In this project we use positive voltage regulator circuit. Here we use three
pin regulator. Output of this regulator is regulated voltage. If we use 7805
regulator then its means its is 5 volt regulator and if we use 7808 regulator
then its means that it is 8 volt regulator circuit. In this project we use 5 volt
dc regulated power supply for the complete circuit. Separate 9 volt dc power
supply is used for the relay coil

DTMF DECODER
In the

DTMF decoder circuit

we use one DTMF decoder circuit to

interface the mobile unit with this project. We dial the number of the phone
connected to the energy meter then phone is automatic on and no we press a
button 1 or button 2 to enter a value of 50 to 100 Rs in the meter. For this
purpose we must need a mobile interface circuit with out project. . In this
interface circuit we use one main ic 8870. This ic 8870 decode the dtmf
pulses into bcd pulse . This bcd pulses is further converted into decimal unit
with the help of bcd to decimal decoder circuit.. For the bcd to decimal
decoder circuit we use ic 74154 to decode the bcd signal to decimal signal.

PIN DESCRIPTION

IC 8870 is a DTMF (dual tone multiple frequency) decoder .It converts dtmf pulse into
the equivalent BCD signal. Pin no. 18 and 10 of this IC are connected to the positive
supply. This positive supply is from the 5 volt regulator circuit. Pin no. 9,5,6 are
connected to the negative supply. Signal from the telephone line is in the form of dtmf
pulse is applied to pin no. 2 of this IC through 2.2k ohm resistor and .1mfd capacitor.
This signal is also connected to pin no. 3 through 100k ohm resistor. Pin no. 7 and 8 are
connected to a crystal of frequency 3.7945 mh. Pin no. 16 and 17 of this IC is reset pin.
Pin no. 11,12,13,14 are the BCD output of this IC.

Substitute ICs: 9170, 3170
