I am having my research proposal this semester about a microcontroller-based 3 phase induction motor control. But I'm confused what shall i do first?...could you help me?...I'll be using the at89c2051 microcontroller, supposing this is the only microcontroller available....
No,thats not the only microcontroller available.
You have got PIc,which well suits for motor controll applications.
Goto www.microchip.com look into the motor controsl section.you will find lot of application notes on motor controls
can you specify in detail the working of the 3-phase induction motor and what do you want to control -
start/stop
direction
speed
working voltage
bye

yeah i want to control its start,stop, direction, speed just assuming the only microcontroller available is at89c2051..would it be possible?...is it impossible for 89c2051 to do it?...
Added after 7 minutes:
my idea is utilizing what microcontroller is available in my pc...and that is at89c2051...will it be hard for the controller to do the motor control?
no.its not hard,
end even you know,installing a compiler for PIC hardly takes 15mins.You can download it from microchip.com
And by the way,if you know something of AT89c51,i would say go ahead with that only.
And if you are "0" in both of the programming techniques,i would say you go ahead with PIC micros.
then take PIC with you,
look into **broken link removed**
log in to microchip website.you canb see the application notes there.
Being a begginer,i would doubt whether you would be able to pick up about the motor control programming so fast.
Will take some time,but dont get carried away,the technique is simple.
if you know 'C' language,or atleast the basics of 'C',then it'll be very easy to pick the programming of PIC with C.
Or else, assembly language,but its little bit tough to start with.
i prefer C language.But i would say,you definitely need to have some practical help or guidance from someone who knows the programming.
i think for your application 89c2051 is more than enough for start,stop and for reversing the motor.
You can use any language which u feel is easier ie (assembly and C)
