automatic wiper using 555 timer ppt
Have you seen Audi, Lexus or Ford rain sensing wipers and wondered how they work in these vehicles? They are handled by sensors at the center of the windscreen which detects rain water and turns on the wiper motor. Here is the working of rain sensitive wipers with circuit schematic. The main component of this circuit is a 555 timer IC that works in monostable mode. Two metal sheets fixed at a small distance apart are used as rain detector sensors. From the working of a monostable 555 timer, a negative voltage on the trigger pin will cause a high output. So when it rains, trigger pin gets a negative voltage. Output of one shot 555 (monostable) is connected to a relay through a transistor. The transistor acts as a switch for the relay to turn ON the wiper motor during rain.
Description
A continuously working wiper is a big problem when it is raining slightly.The wiper control given here makes the wiper to sweep at rates from 1S to 10 S.
The circuit is build around an astable multivibrator using NE 555.Here the output at pin 3 remains high for a time period set by R2 ,and low for a time period set by R3.The low output pulse drives the transistor pair to drive the wiper motor to make one sweeping cycle and waits for next low pulse to arrive for next sweep.The high going pulse at pin 3 determines how many time should wiper should sweep in a given period of time.
