Abstract

A PCB machine that can draw trace lines and drill holes on a PCB card is developed. The machine consists of a computer, a driving circuit and a mechanical setup. The overall system is operated and controlled from a computer through a program written in Matlab. A relay based driving circuit is developed to perform operations onto the mechanical setup. A communication protocol is established between the computer and the driving circuit through LPT1 port. In this initial work, we demonstrate that the machine successfully draws a trace line and drill holes on two pads which are at both ends of the line. Currently the machine is used only for educational purposes at our lab.

Abstract

Bu çalışmada PCB karları üzerine yolları oluşturabilen ve pad'lerin orta noktalarına delik delebilen bir cihaz geliştirilmiştir. Cihaz bir bilgisayar, bir sürücü devresi ve bir mekanik aksamdan oluşmaktadır. Sistemin tümü Matlab'te yazılan bir program tarafından kontrol edilmektedir. Mekanik aksam üzerinde yaptırılacak hareketlerin kontrolü röleler kullanılarak geliştirlen bir elektronik devre ile yapılmaktadır. Bilgisayar ile sürücü devresi arasındaki haberleşme protokolü bilgisayarın LPT1 portundan gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu ilk çalışmamızda cihazımızın başarılı bir şekilde bir PCB kartı üzerine bir adet yol çizdiğini ve yolun her iki tarafında bulunan padlerin orta noktalarına birer delik deldiğini göstermekteyiz. Şu anda cihazımız sadece eğitim amaçlı olarak labaratuarımızda kullanılmaktadır.
