CS-EE 480 Fall November, 2005 University of Portland School of Engineering Overview Introduction Scorecard Additional Accomplishments Plans Issues/Concerns Conclusions

CS-EE 480 Fall November, 2005 University of Portland School of Engineering Introduction Light electric vehicle drive system –Driver and vehicle weight of approx 450 lbs. –Emulates moped. –Commuters will benefit. –Main emphasis on the motor control and feedback –Displays data analogous to cars RPM and fuel gauge

CS-EE 480 Fall November, 2005 University of Portland School of Engineering Scorecard (Oct 05 plans) Order power electronics parts Build upper stage of functional block diagram Test motor at higher power ratings Work on design for lower stage of functional block diagram All of the above have been completed

CS-EE 480 Fall November, 2005 University of Portland School of Engineering Additional Accomplishments Built power electronics module Built regulated power supply module Finished motor controller PIC microcontroller programming. All of the above have been tested as well.

CS-EE 480 Fall November, 2005 University of Portland School of Engineering Plans Test regenerative braking Full load test the forward drive mode of the motor controller Construct current sensing system Program PIC microcontroller to recognize the current sensing system Complete design review process
