Abstract
There is the greatest demand for electronic weighing scale in vegetable shops, health industries and especially to measure the tiny things. This paper proposes a Wireless electronic weighing scale designed using ultra low power MSP430 controller and with ZigBee wireless communication module. The weighing scale measures the weight with the help of strain sensor and the processor, which has an inbuilt FRAM memory and Real time clock and calendar. This makes the scale to update the weighing databases more accurately and instruction with host PC in a wireless manner. The ZigBee cluster tree network is formed to communicate with more than one electronic scale and the network performance is analyzed using NetSim. The Visual Basic language is developed for user interface in PC side for generating bills.
Highlights
Electronic scale has a wide range of application in commercial and industrial area
This paper introduces a wireless electronic scale based on ultra low power MSP430 microprocessor and ZigBee wireless module
The Wireless electronic scale provides an efficient way of weighing goods, update detailed transaction information and exchange of data’s and saves all the information in a host PC
Summary
Electronic scale has a wide range of application in commercial and industrial area. It is the upcoming trend to be extensively used in many weighing applications. It will provide accurate and reliable output compare to the conventional weighing scale. The major advantage of electronic weighing scale is accuracy, precision and reliability. Electronic scale finds more popularity in vegetable shops, health industries and especially to identify the measurement of the tiny things. The prominent features of the system are low cost, easy maintenance, flexible design and multipurpose
