STEP 1:
Identification of Need
Starting point: Faculty suggested topic description
(Issued on January 21, 2015)
“This project will develop a low-cost device for measuring key
parameters of a mechanical pendulum instrument. Measurements
must be of high accuracy and precision. Developed solution
should be transferable into a larger unit dedicated to the control
of the instrument. …….... “
3
Identification of Need(Bulleted Format)
A device to measure key parameters such as period (T) and
quality (Q) of a mechanical pendulum
Measurements taken with a high accuracy and precision
The device must use a low-power optical sensor already
integrated with the pendulum
Developed solution must be low-cost
In the future, developed solution will be modified and
transferred to a pendulum clock control module
4
Answers to Heilmeier’s Questions
1) What are you trying to do? Articulate your goals.
To develop a device and techniques for measuring pendulum
parameters with high precision and accuracy
2) How is it done today, and what are the limitations of
current practice?
There are stand alone precision devices able to measure
pendulum period with very high (up to 2-5 µs) precision and
similar accuracy, but they use sensing techniques taking a lot
of energy
These devices are expensive and cannot be integrated into a
larger system
They do not measure quality factor of a pendulum5
3) What is new in your approach, and why do you think
it will be successful?
The device will measure both period and quality factor
Measurement data will include confidence information
Developed technology will be transferable
Approach will be based on solid mathematical foundations
The device will be low-cost and low-power
4) Who cares? If you are successful, what difference will
it make?
Developed device is needed for a larger effort
Developed technology will be transferred to a target system
controlling mechanical pendulum clock
The project provides an experience in the development of
highly accurate measurement devices
6
5) What are the risks and payoffs?
Interfacing with a mechanical pendulum that allows for taking
high precision measurements is no clear at this point and may
cause delays
Pendulum axial vibrations and other effects may greatly
influence measured data
6) How much will it cost? How long will it take?
Estimated budget is in range of $100 to $200 covering electronic
components, including backup components, and components
needed for the development and testing
First semester is dedicated to the design effort, development of a
technique for sensor data processing, and approach simulation
Second semester is dedicated to a full scale implementation
The team will potentially need to work over the spring break
and/or a part of summer
7
7) What are midterm and final milestones to check for
success?
Mathematical foundations will be developed and simulated
before the implementation phase (1st semester)
Project progress will include demonstrations of sensing
capabilities (1st semester) and data processing (2nd semester)
Final testing of the entire system will be scheduled a week
before the final presentation
8
STEP 2:Requirements Specification
The team members spent time on educating themselves
on the application domain and applicable technology
The team prepared questions for an interview
The interview was completed with the stakeholder
o Notes from the interview were scripted
The team developed an operational scenarios which
were verified by the stakeholder
o Operational scenarios included “Use Cases” illustrating system
operations and interactions with the environment/users
Requirements were defined and verified9
Interview Notes
Q1: Please, describe the pendulum instrument.
o Free swinging pendulum with T=2sec
o ~1m long
o Motion is small and about ±1.5°
Q2: With what sensors/components must the
measuring device interface?
o Ultra-low-power photo interrupter installed on the
instrument
o Mask with two small windows attached to the
pendulum rod swings between an LED and a
photoreceptor of this sensor
o LCD with a parallel and I2C interface (swappable)10
Q3: What are the physical parameters to be measured?
o Pendulum period T (~2sec)
o Pendulum quality factor, better known as Q
Q4: What is the accuracy, precision, and value ranges for
these measurements?
o For period T:
At least 10µs accuracy
2µs precision
Value range 1.9s to 2.1s
o For quality factor Q:
Expected reasonable range from 10 to 5000 (greatly depends
on suspension spring and attachments to the pendulum)
High accuracy and precision for Q is not critical
11
Q5: How would you like to operate the device?
o First, pendulum is set in motion
o Next, the measurement process is initiated manually by an
operator (using a push button)
o Measurements are displayed on a LCD
o First measured data can be displayed with a delay of up to 15sec
Q6: Which part of the design must be transferable to a
control unit of the pendulum?
o Software shall be developed as a single component with defined
interfaces
o It is assumed that small software modifications will be needed for
software transfer
o Any hardware module must be transferable without modifications
o Use a MCU from the PIC24 family12
Q7: What type of events may negatively influence the
process and how are they to be deal with?
o Variety of external factors difficult to predict, for example:
excessive axial motion, excessive amplitude of the swing,
accidental friction between the mask and sensor, etc.
o Data displayed should include a confidence factor
o Notification of fatal errors/warnings
Q8: Are there any additional specific restrictions on the
size, power, etc. to be considered for the design?
o Low power design
o Power supply in range of 3V to 3.3V
o Easy operation
o Measurements taken on request (not continuous)
o Maximum time of 1min for the measuring process

them on three blank pages
Next, each sketch was refined by adding technology
o This is to bridge user-view with technological ideas
o But remember, no detailed technical solution is considered at this
point at all. Only an opportunity is considered.
o No judgment was applied
o Considerably more time was spent at this point

STEP 6:
Behavioral Modeling
Since the system is microcontroller-based, the following
models have been developed:
o State diagram
o Flowcharts
You will notice that these models are not copies of functional
decomposition, but they are practical implementation of it (!)
Implementation will progress through the following
phases:
1) Develop and test a top level software shell to switch between
states (as modeled by state diagram)
2) Separately build and debug software modules corresponding to
each state independently (as modeled by data flowcharts)
3) Gradually attach software objects under the software shell35

DESIGN NOTE (!)
Top-down design steps (Step1 to Step5) contributed to the
understanding of system functionality, in/out interactions,
and the development of system architecture
However, Step 6 brings this ‘understanding’ into practical
implementation, where both top-down and bottom-up designs
are combined
You may notice that functional decomposition diagram is not
transferred directly (into the state diagram and flowcharts);
but its components are arranged in such a way that
implementation is more optimal and practical
It is expected that in Step 6, added bottom-up design
influences changes in the design
In summary, top-down design leads towards the final design
but has to accept changes introduced by bottom-up design40
STEP 7:
Background Foundations
“The ability to physically model differentiates engineers; it is not
a commodity,” Dr. K.C. Craig, Design News, Nov. 2012
Keep in mind that straightforward use of physics, math, etc.
frequently does not give the best results
Frequently, background foundations must be used in an innovative
(different) way to achieve modeling goals
Consider this case study:
Mathematical model of pendulum could be applied directly. If so, it
would require additional parameters of questionable accuracy or cause
problems.
Instead, the author went a step further and evolved the foundations
into an interesting method to measure T and Q, as shown in next pages.41
Pendulum as an oscillator
For small angles (<1.5°) pendulum is modeled as a linear system with a mathematical
model identical to a well known torsion spring oscillator
Pendulum:
Torsion spring:
where: g – gravity; l – pendulum length; k – spring constant; m – mass; γ – dumping
coefficient
Solution for underdumped system, where
where: ω – angular frequency; ω0 – resonant angular frequency; A – amplitude

How to measure pendulum quality factor Q ?
Background:
Developed approach to measure Q:
1) Using amplitude of wave maxima and potential energy loss calculation (not convenient), or
2) Using speed at α=0 and kinetic energy loss calculation (not convenient), or
3) Estimated by using a difference in kinetic energy at consecutive periods from α=0.
Hence, Q can be estimated using measured ∆t it takes a mask window to travel
through the photo-interrupter (!)
This corresponds to an inverted problem and can be represented as follows:
where: ∆tT0 for the first period and ∆tT1 the next period are measured by the photo-
interrupter
This approach must be confirmed through a simulation (!)44

STEP 8:
Early Prototyping
Task #1) Photo-interrupter configuration
o Objective: Tune the sensor for low-power consumption
47
o Schematics
o From spec sheet of TCST1300 we learn:
Sensor aperture is 0.25mm (very small)
Practical minimum forward current IF≥2mA
For smaller current, IF˂2mA, Turn-on/Turn-
off delay is very large
Collector current IC=0.025*IF. For IF=2mA,
collector current is IC=50µA (very small
indeed)
This gives us initial resistor values: R1≈1kΩ;
R2≈60kΩ
o Final resistor values found through experimentation: R1=1kΩ ;
R2=100kΩ (assuming MCU input impedance RL=[0.5-1MΩ]
o Obtained signal graphs with TCST1300 sensor:
o Conclusions:
1. Conducted experiments determined minimum current levels for
the photo-interrupter and resistor values
2. Size of mask windows can be decreased by a half due to relatively
small Turn-on/Turn-off delay
3. Timing data can be noisy due to axial vibrations of the pendulum –
proper technique for estimation of T and Q values from noisy
timing data must be implemented 48
Task #2) Oscillator modeling through Matlab simulation
o Oscillator function programmed with a very small increments
of time (1x10-6sec)
o Thick line sections are ∆t intervals indicating increasing time
the mask moves through a photo-interrupter

Task #3) Simulation based verification of Q estimation
o Developed numerical iterative calculation of Q
For given ω0 and T, and measured ∆t0 , ∆t1, one can estimate Q through an
iterative numerical process over increasing n until a stop condition is met (as an
error threshold on Q calculated at two sequential iterations)
o Results for different values of Q
o Q computed through Taylor series gives faster and similar results

Task #4) Averaging Q due to substantial noise in ∆t
measurements
o This can be achieved through averaging Q values obtained every
single period
o Or more conveniently, estimating Q for ∆t0 measured at the
beginning of the process and ∆tM measured after M periods:
o Results for different value of Q estimated iteratively
o Q computed through Taylor series gives faster and similar result
