Engine Temperature Display circuit for motorbike or car

3 Digit Engine or Engine oil Temperature monitor

For long way touring motorbikes, the engine or engine oil temperature monitor is a must have add-on. As temperature increases, biker can control the engine temperature by decreasing accelerator or stop for few hours, That may helps in engine seizure. So lets get started.

Circuit diagram


Components


    lm35-pin details
  • IC1:PIC16F684
  • J1 connector to LM35
  • R1 to R3: 1K ohm
  • R4 to R10: 330 or 470 Ohm
  • D1: 5V1 Zener diode.
  • T1 to T3: BC547
  • DIS1 to DIS3: Common cathode 7 Segment display.

Description

The PIC microcontroller's RA0/AN0 pin is set to analog input. LM35 temperature will gives 0.01V for 1'C so for 20'C=0.20V. this voltage is fed to the ADC of PIC, the 10-bit ADC output is converted into Celsius form and distribute them to 3 7 segment displays
ADC to integer form converson (10 bit): ((adc_i/P)*500)/1023;
