INTRODUCTION This project work is an attempt to design electronic candle that can produce the effect of candle light in a normal electric bulb. A candle light as we all know , resembles a randomly flickering light. These aren't the only electric candles, but they are easily among the best - behaving incredibly like a real candle. The LED bulbs flicker more realistically than most other flameless candles, just like a real flame. One of the biggest advantages of these lights is the quality of the flicker. Generally, flickering LED candles have a randomized flickering program me "cycle", that repeats itself. Lengthen this cycle (which requires more memory in the electronics), and the candle can be made to be more realistic. So the objective of this project activity is to produce a randomly flickering light effect in an electric bulb. To achieve this, the entire circuit can be divided into three parts. The first part comprises IC1 (555), IC2 (74LS164), IC3 (74LS86), IC4 (74LS00) and the associated components. These generate a randomly changing pulse. The second part of the circuit consists of SCR1 (C106), an electric bulb connected between anode of SCR1 and mains live wire and gate trigger circuit components. It is basically half-wave AC power being supplied to the bulb.

The third part is power supply to generate regulated 5V DC from 230V AC for random signal generator. It comprises a step down transformer(X1), full-wave rectifier (diodes D3 and D4), filter capacitor (C9), followed by a regulator (IC5).

The figure below shows the block diagram of the design.

HARDWARE DESCRIPTION To design electronic candle the following components have been used: 1. Regulated DC Power supply 2. 555-Timer IC

3. Serial in/ parallel out shift register 4. Gates 5. Silicon Controlled Rectifier(SCR1(C106)) 6. Electric Bulb This section gives brief description of each of the components.

Component 1: Regulated DC Power supply It comprises a step down transformer, full wave rectifier, filter capacitor, followed by a regulator

Circuit Diagram of Regulated DC power supply Figure 2 The regulated DC output is very smooth with no ripple. It is suitable for all electronic circuits Transformer: Transformers convert AC electricity from one voltage to another with little loss of power. Transformers work only with AC and this is one of the reasons why mains electricity is AC. Rectifier: There are several ways of connecting diodes to make a rectifier to convert AC to DC. The bridge rectifier is the most important and it produces full-wave varying DC. A full-wave rectifier can also be made from just two diodes if a centre-tap transformer is used, but this method is rarely used now that diodes are cheaper. Smoothing : Smoothing is performed by a large value electrolytic capacitor connected across the DC supply to act as a reservoir, supplying current to the output when the varying DC voltage from the rectifier is falling. Regulator: Voltage regulator ICs are available with fixed (typically 5, 12 and 15V) or variable output voltages. They are also rated by the maximum current they can pass. Negative voltage regulators are available, mainly for use in dual supplies. Most regulators include some automatic protection from excessive current

Component 2: 555-Timer IC

The 555 Timer IC is an integrated circuit (chip) implementing a variety of timer and multivibrator applications. Depending on the manufacturer, the standard 555 package includes over 20 transistors, 2 diodes and 15 resistors on a silicon chip installed in an 8-pin mini dual-inline package (DIP-8).

The 555 has three operating modes: Monostable mode: In the monostable mode, the 555 timer acts as a “one-shot”

pulse generator. The pulse begins when the 555 timer receives a trigger signal. The width of the pulse is determined by the time constant of an RC network, which consists of a capacitor(C) and a resistor(R). The pulse ends when the charge on the C equals 2/3 of the supply voltage. The pulse width can be lengthened or shortened to the need of the specific application by adjusting the values of R and C.

Schematic of a 555 in monostable mode Figure 4

The pulse width of time t, which is the time it takes to charge C to 2/3 of the supply voltage, is given by

where t is in seconds, R is in ohms and C is in farads. Applications include timers, missing pulse detection, bounce free switches, touch switches, frequency divider, capacitance measurement, pulse-width modulation (PWM) etc Astable mode - In this mode , the '555 timer ' puts out a continuous stream of rectangular pulses having a specified frequency. Resistor R1 is connected between VCC and the discharge pin (pin 7) and another resistor (R2) is connected between the discharge pin (pin 7), and the trigger (pin 2) and threshold (pin 6) pins that share a common node. Hence the capacitor is charged through R1 and R2, and discharged only through R2, since pin 7 has low impedance to ground during output low intervals of the cycle, therefore discharging the capacitor.

555 Astable Circuit Figure 5 In the astable mode, the frequency of the pulse stream depends on the values of R1, R2 and C:

The high time from each pulse is given by

and the low time from each pulse is given by

where R1 and R2 are the values of the resistors in ohms and C is the value of the capacitor in farads. Applications include LED and lamp flashers, pulse generation, logic clocks, tone generation, security alarms, pulse position modulation ,etc. Bistable mode or Schmitt trigger: The Bistable Circuit toggles between the states. Triggering one input sets the output to the low state, while triggering another input sets the output to the high state. The name "bistable" means "two stable states".It can operate as a flip-flop, if the DIS pin is not connected and no capacitor is used. Uses include bounce free latched switches, etc. In designing of electronic candle, the clock signal is generated by using the 555 timer in Astable mode. The detailed description of it is given below: This is the free running mode and the trigger is tied to the threshold pin. It is a timing circuit whose 'low' and 'high' states are both unstable. As such, the output of an Astable multivibrator toggles between 'low' and 'high' continuously, in effect generating a train of pulses. This circuit is therefore also known as a 'pulse generator' circuit.

555 timer configuration in astable mode Figure 6 In this circuit, capacitor C1 charges through R1 and R2, eventually building up enough voltage to trigger an internal comparator to toggle the output flip-flop. Once toggled, the flip-flop discharges C1 through R2 into pin 7, which is the discharge pin. When C1's voltage becomes low enough, another internal comparator is triggered to toggle the output flip-flop. This once again allows C1 to charge up through R1 and R2 and the cycle starts all over again. C1's charge-up time t1 is given by: t1 = 0.693(R1+R2)C1. C1's discharge time t2 is given by: t2 = 0.693(R2)C1. Thus, the total period of one cycle is t1+t2 = 0.693 C1(R1+2R2). The frequency f of the output wave is the reciprocal of this period, and is therefore given by:

The HIGH and LOW times of each pulse can be calculated from: HIGH Time = 0.69 (R1 + R2) × C LOW Time = 0.69 (R2 × C) The duty cycle of the waveform, usually expressed as a percentage, is given by:

where f is in Hz if R1 and R2 are in mega ohms and C1 is in microfarads. Valuable features: •

Free running modes, 50% duty cycle



Good astable frequency stability 2% @100kHz,0.5%

Component 3: Serial in Parallel out shift register (74LS164)

Connection Diagram of 74LS164 IC

Figure 7

Logic Diagram of 74LS164 IC Figure 8 This 8-bit parallel-out serial shift register features AND -gated serial (A and B) inputs and an asynchronous clear (CLR) input. The gated serial inputs permit control over incoming data because a low at either input inhibits entry of the new data and resets the first flip-flop to the low level at the next clock pulse. A high-level input enables the other input, which determines the state of the first flip-flop. Data at the serial inputs can be changed while the clock is high or low, provided that the minimum setup-time requirements are met. Clocking occurs on the low-to-high-level transition of the clock (CLK) input. All inputs are diode clamped to minimize transmission-line effects. The SN74ALS164A is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. FUNCTION TABLE INPUTS CLR’ L H H H H

Component 5: SILICON CONTROLLED RECTIFIER (C106) Shockley diodes are curious devices, but rather limited in application. Their usefulness may be expanded, however, by equipping them with another means of latching. In doing so, each becomes true amplifying devices (if only in an on/off mode), and we refer to these as silicon-controlled rectifiers, or SCRs. The progression from Shockley diode to SCR is achieved with one small addition, actually nothing more than a third wire connection to the existing PNPN structure: (Figure below)

Figure 11

The SCR has become the workhorse of the industrial control industry. Its evolution over the years has yielded a device that is less expensive, more reliable, and smaller in size than ever before. Typical applications include : DC motor control, generator field regulation,Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) DC Bus voltage control, Solid State Relaysand lighting system control.

SCR Connection Diagram Figure 12 The SCR is a three-lead device with an anode and a cathode (as with a standard diode) plus a third control lead or gate. As the name implies, it is a rectifier which can be controlled - or more correctly - one that can be triggered to the “ON” state by applying a small positive voltage ( VTM ) to the gate lead. Once gated ON, the trigger signal may be removed and the SCR will remain conducting as long as current flows through the device. If an SCR's gate is left floating (disconnected), it behaves exactly as a Shockley diode. It may be latched by break over voltage or by exceeding the critical rate of voltage rise between anode and cathode, just as with the Shockley diode. Dropout is accomplished by reducing current until one or both internal transistors fall into cutoff mode, also like the Shockley diode. However, because the gate terminal connects directly to the base of the lower transistor, it may be used as an alternative means to latch the SCR. By applying a small voltage between gate and cathode, the lower transistor will be forced on by the resulting base current, which will cause the upper transistor to conduct, which then supplies the lower transistor's base with current so that it no longer needs to be activated by a gate voltage. The necessary gate current to initiate latch-up, of course, will be much lower than the current through the SCR from cathode to anode, so the SCR does achieve a measure of amplification.

This method of securing SCR conduction is called triggering, and it is by far the most common way that SCRs are latched in actual practice. In fact, SCRs are usually chosen so that their breakover voltage is far beyond the greatest voltage expected to be experienced from the power source, so that it can be turned on only by an intentional voltage pulse applied to the gate. It should be mentioned that SCRs may sometimes be turned off by directly shorting their gate and cathode terminals together, or by "reverse-triggering" the gate with a negative voltage (in reference to the cathode), so that the lower transistor is forced into cutoff. I say this is "sometimes" possible because it involves shunting all of the upper transistor's collector current past the lower transistor's base. This current may be substantial, making triggered shut-off of an SCR difficult at best. A variation of the SCR, called a GateTurn-Off thyristor, or GTO, makes this task easier. But even with a GTO, the gate current required to turn it off may be as much as 20% of the anode (load) current!

Volt-Ampere Characteristics Figure One below illustrates the volt-ampere characteristics curve of an SCR.

Volt-ampere characteristics curve of an SCR. Figure13 The vertical axis + I represents the device current, and the horizontal axis +V is the voltage applied across the device anode to cathode. The parameter It defines the RMS forward current that the SCR can carry in the ON state, while VR defines the amount of voltage the unit can block in the OFF state.

Biasing The application of an external voltage to a semiconductor is referred to as a bias. Forward Bias Operation A forward bias, shown below as +V, will result when a positive potential is applied to the anode and negative to the cathode .Even after the application of a forward bias, the device remains non-conducting until the positive gate trigger voltage is applied. After the device is triggered ON it reverts to a low impedance state and current flows through the unit. The unit will remain conducting after the gate voltage has been removed. In the ON state (represented by +I), the current must be limited by the load, or damage to the SCR will result. Reverse Bias Operation The reverse bias condition is represented by -V. A reverse bias exists when the potential applied across the SCR results in the cathode being more positive than the anode. In this condition the SCR is non-conducting and the application of a trigger voltage will have no effect on the device. In the reverse bias mode, the knee of the curve is known as the Peak Inverse Voltage PIV (or Peak Reverse Voltage - PRV) and this value cannot be exceeded or the device will break-down and be destroyed. A good Rule-of -Thumb is to select a device with a PIV of at least three times the RMS value of the applied voltage.

Component 6: Electric Bulb The electric bulb, is a source of electric light that works by connecting the circuit part to it and produce a randomly flickering light effect in it.

DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION The given figure shows the circuit diagram of Electronic Candle

Circuit diagram of electronic candle Figure 14 The above given circuit diagram is a simple circuit that can produce the effect of candle light in a normal electric bulb .To achieve this , the entire circuit diagram is divide into three parts: The first part is the power supply to generate regulated 5V DC from 230V AC for random signal generator. It comprises a step down transformer(X1), full-wave rectifier (diodes D3 and D4), filter capacitor (C9), followed by a regulator (IC5). The second part comprises of IC1(555), IC2 (74LS164), IC3 (74LS86), IC4 (74LS00) and the associated components. These generate a randomly changing pulse.

The third part of the circuit consists of SCR1 (C106), an electric bulb connected between anode of SCR1 and mains live wire and gate trigger circuit components. It is basically half-wave AC power being supplied to the bulb The functioning of the system is as follows: The first part of the circuit will provide a regulated voltage to the external circuit which may also I am required in any part of the external circuit or the whole external circuit .The best part is that you can also use it to convert AC voltage to DC and then regulate it ,simply You need a transformer to make the AC main drop down to a safe value i.e. 1215 volts and then us a rectifier to convert AC into DC. This circuit can give +5V output at about 150mA current, but it can be increased to 1 A when good cooling is added to 7805 regulator chip. The circuit has over overload and terminal protection. The capacitors must have enough high voltage rating to safely handle the input voltage feed to circuit. If you need other voltages than +5V, you can modify the circuit by replacing the 7805 chips with another regulator with different output voltage from regulator 78xx chip family. The last numbers in the chip code tells the output voltage. In the second part ,The random signal generator of the circuit is built around an 8-Bit serial in/parallel out shift register (IC2). Different outputs of the shift register IC pass through a set of logic gates(N1 through N5) and final output appearing at pin 6 of gate N5 is fed back to the inputs of pins 1and 2 of IC2. The clock signal appears at pin 8 of IC2, which is clocked by an astable multivibrator configured around timer(IC1). The clock frequency can be set using preset VR1 and VR2. it can be set around 100Hz to provide better flickering effect in the bulb. The random signal generated from the above triggers the gate of SCR1. The electric bulb gets AC power only for the period which SCR1 is fired. SCR1 is fired only during the positive half cycles. Conduction of SCR1 depends upon the gate triggering pin3 of IC2, which is random. Thus, we see a flickering effect in the light output. Assemble the circuit on a general purpose PCB and enclose it in a suitable case. Fix bulb and neon bulb on the front side of the cabinet. Also, connect a power cable for giving AC mains supply to the circuit for operation. The circuit is ready to use. Since the circuit uses 230V AC, care must be taken to avoid electric shock.

CONCLUSION

The system has been designed on PCB that uses various components in its designation. It has been designed and studied in detail by implementing it. The hardware of this project is designed to the stage of random signal generation successfully and rest of the portion can not design due to unavailability of components. We have also studied the CIRCUIT MAKER software during this project. Circuit maker is a schematic design, simulation and PCB design tool and the major portion of the project has been simulated on it. In future the same will be ported onto a small size PCB.

FUTURE SCOPE

Standard wax candles used for decoration and mood lighting produce an open flame and high temperatures. This is unsuitable for many applications where accidents are likely, especially around children and pets.In many situations use of candles and other open flames may be prohibited by local fire and building regulations. It is possible to realistically simulate these lighting effects electrically. In these situations Electronic candles can be very useful.
