AIM

• To testing LED Cube operation.
• To make a wiring on the cathode terminal at the PCB Board.
• To run a program testing.

PROBLEMS

• After week 7, some of problem has been detected. The major problem of the project is when the controller circuit is not working. After troubleshoot process has been made, the controller board still not working like simulation on Proteus software.

FINDINGS

• At the figure 5, shown that the new controller board has been used for this project. The controller board is buy from Astana Digital electronic shop. This controller board is working similar with the previous one.

RESULTS

• At the figure 1, the picture shown the process of the wiring on the cathode terminal. Heat shrink has been used to protect the wire from touching with the copper side.

• At the figure 2, the connector has been used to make an interface between LED PCB board and Controller circuit. All of the terminal need to be declare before the connection been made.

• At the figure 3, the simple programming as shown in the picture above is doing for make sure every layer of LED is running. Every port in the PIC 16f877a is row depend on the layer of LED.

• At the figure 4, after all of the process done, the result for 3D LED Cube is shown at the picture above. This project is running smoothly and more various feature will be seen on progress.

PLAN FOR THE NEXT WEEK

• To make a cable management in every each of port.
• To try more versatile feature and display.
