Communication Aid for Deaf and Dumb Peoples


            Deaf and Dumb people communicate with each other  and others in many areas of everyday life. Often they need support to communicate effectively with each other. The project aims to develop a complete Portable Communication Aid for deaf and dumb. A flex sensor glove along with MEMS Accelerometer is used to convert the sign language to voice. The PDA with voice to text converter converts voice to text format.

            The 3 axis Mems and Flex sensor glove is connected to the  ADC channels of the LPC 2138 Microcontroller. According to the digital output values from Mems and Flex sensor, The microcontroller recognize the corresponding letter and transmits to voice recorder IC through SPI module. The IC converts these to voice format.
            The project also includes a PDA with voice to text converter which converts the voice into corresponding text format and transmits to the microcontroller through Bluetooth. Bluetooth is interfaced to the UART module of the microcontroller. The microcontroller also includes a LCD module which displays the text.

Block diagram of AM transmitter and receiver with explanation

Block diagram of AM transmitter and receiver with explanation AM Transmitter : Transmitters that transmit AM signals are known as AM transmitters. These transmitters are used in medium wave (MW) and short wave (SW) frequency bands for AM broadcast. The MW band has frequencies between 550 KHz and 1650 KHz, and the SW band has frequencies ranging from 3 MHz to 30 MHz. The two types of AM transmitters that are used based on their transmitting powers are: ·          High Level ·          Low Level High level transmitters use high level modulation, and low level transmitters use low level modulation. The choice between the two modulation schemes depends on the transmitting power of the AM transmitter. In broadcast transmitters, where the transmitting power may be of the order of kilowatts, high level modulation is employed. In low power transmitters, where only a few watts of transmitting power are required , low...

Using the TLP250 Isolated MOSFET Driver Explanation and Example Circuits

I’ve already shown how to drive an N-channel MOSFET (or even an IGBT) in both high-side and low-side configurations in a multitude of ways. I’ve also explained the principles of driving the MOSFETs in these configurations. The dedicated drivers I’ve shown so far are the TC427 and IR2110. Some people have requested me to write up on MOSFET drive using the very popular TLP250. And I’ll explain that here. The TLP250, like any driver, has an input stage, an output stage and a power supply connection. What’s special about the TLP250 is that the TLP250 is an optically isolated driver, meaning that the input and output are “optically isolated”. The isolation is optical – the input stage is an LED and the receiving output stage is light sensitive (think “photodetector”). Before delving any further, let’s look at the pin configuration and the truth table. Fig. 1 - TLP250 Pin Configuration Fig. 2 - TLP250 Truth Table Fig. 1 clearly shows the input LED side and the receiving photodetector as well...
