this ppt illustrates the interfacing of 8051 microcontrollers and DC motor. Here we had undertaken Simple geared DC motor as a subject to control, using 8051. 8051 is considered since it is an entrance of basics in learning microcontrollers

2. Introduction :-
 In this topic we need to control direction of DC motor using a 8051
Microcontroller with C language Programming.
 The Maximum current that can be sourced or sunk from the a 8051
microcontroller is 15 mA at 5v.
 But a DC Motor need currents very much more than that and it need voltages 6v,
12v, 24v etc. depending upon the type of motor used.
 Another problem is that the back EMF produced by the motor may affect the
proper functioning of the microcontroller. Due to these reasons we can’t connect
a DC Motor directly to a microcontroller.
 To interface DC motor with 8051 microcontroller we requires cleared basic
fundamentals regarding to both as well programming language.

3. DC Motor
 A direct current (DC) motor is another widely used device
that translates electrical pulses into mechanical
movement.
 In the DC motor we have only (+) and (-) leads.
 Connecting them to a DC voltage source moves the motor
in one direction.
 By reversing the polarity, the DC motor will move in the
opposite direction.

 Motor can be controlled in two ways.
1) Unidirectional Control
2) Bidirectional Control
 As shown in figure DC motor rotation
for Clockwise rotation and Anticlockwise
rotation.
 With the help of relays or some specially
designed chips we can change the
direction of the DC motor rotation.

5. H-Bridge motor control circuits
 An h-bridge is a bipolar driver circuit that is often used to
control a load such as a brush type DC motor.
 The h-bridge consists of four switches – two half-bridges
with the load connected between them.
 The switches are usually solid-state devices such as
bipolar transistors or power MOSFET’s.
 As depicted in figure when all switches are in off condition
it is in rest condition and don’t rotates.

 When S1 and S4 are on, current tends to
flow from the positive rail of the power
supply through the motor left to right and
then to ground.
 This configuration used for rotating motor
clockwise direction.
 When S3 and S2 are on, current tends to
flow in vice versa direction this
configuration used to rotating motor in
anticlockwise direction.

7.  There also a third mode where the
motor leads are effectively shorted
together.
 This can be done by turning on
both high side and both low side
switches.
 This allows current to recirculate
through the motor freely. When
done briefly as the “off” portion of
a PWM cycle, it allows current to
decay slowly.
 When held in this state while a DC
motor is spinning, the back-EMF
of the motor will case a
recirculating current to flow that
will rapidly brake the motor to a
stop.
 This is known as “dynamic
braking”.

10. Description of the circuit
 Previous figure depicted the connection between 8051 and L293.
 For sustained operation of the motor It is required to use heat sink because L239 produce heat more
during operation.
 The opto - isolator uses to provide additional protection of the 8051
 L293 uses a separate power supply for the motor and L293 than for the 8051.
 D1,D2,D3,D4 are IN4004 diodes.
 8051 complete the task of controlling dc motor using the sequence of programming establish by
programmer the run the DC motor.

11. C Programing for DC motor direction
control
To set 8051 with DC motor programming is required either assembly or C language can be
used
Problem Statement :- Write a C program to control direction of Direct motor using
controller 8051 and L239 on both Clockwise and Anti clockwise.
Solution :- Simple logic with switch can be used. When switch is not pressed the DC
motor will rotate in clockwise direction and also rotate in opposite (anticlockwise) direction
when switch is pressed.
