Final Year Project 2 WPB 49906 (Week 1)


Date:  3  - 7 February 2014


Subject : Sketch the circuit by using 3 different Software



Introduction: The purpose of this task is to sketch the design circuit into software to obtain the PCB layout.







Objectives
  1. To test the circuit either it is compatible with the software.
  2. To find the components that same with the types need in this circuit.
  3. To obtain the PCB layout.





Project Description:


This week is to get an idea to sketch the circuit by using 2 different software. First is by using Dip Trace software. From figure 2, it is the view from Dip Trace software. It is most complicated software and it is too much components in the toolbar.

In figure 2, this is the circuit sketch by using Proteus software. It is most easier to used compared to Dip Trace.

Problem Encountered:


It is most complicated software and it is too much components. Besides it is difficult to find types of components need in this circuit. By referring to all information that has been obtained, the progress become smooth. However the project is still on schedule and will proceed as how the project was planned.
 
Project Outcome:
 I have learned about how to sketch a circuit by using two different software. After this, I will continued with print the PCB layout into transparent paper for etching process.  More outcome has been achieved from this research. My research project is on schedule and I should encounter no problems finishing it.
