  1. Unplugged Group 16 Gretchen Rivera Hugo Castellanos Sandra Munoz A Solar Powered Audio Amplifier With DSP Effects

  2. Project Description The “unplugged” sound system is a solar powered audio amplifier that provides the freedom to play music anywhere without having to be attached to the power grid. It provides inputs for not only musical instruments, but also for an iPod or any MP3 player. The “Unplugged” also provides a DSP effects unit which allows the user to choose an audio effect and apply it to a microphone or instrument.

  3. Goals and Objectives • Inputs for microphone, instrument or MP3 player • Power management system must be capable to fully charge and run off a battery. • Must be portable • User must be able to apply an audio effect to an input and monitor it by means of a display • User must be able to monitor parameters such as battery voltage, solar panel voltage and state of charge of the battery

  4. Specs and Requirements • Should weight less than 30 pounds • The system will include a ¼ inch TRS input for a microphone or instrument level signals and an 1/8 inch input for an iPod or auxiliary audio source. • Capable of delivering a minimum output of 30 Watts RMS • Capable of operating for at least 3 hours • MP3 input has to be equipped with an EQ circuit with a dynamic range of +/-6 dB • Incorporate DSP audio effects including reverb • The system must be able to run off a 12V battery • The battery must be charged solely by a 20W solar panel

  43. Testing

  44. Testing • A 1kHz 2mV Pk-Pk sinusoidal wave was applied to the pre-amp and a voltage gain of 10 was confirmed • A 1kHz 1 V Pk-Pk sinusoid was applied to the audio amplifier input and a gain of 105 dB SPL was confirmed (A jackhammer 1m away is 100 dB SPL) • The solar panel was connected to the battery charger for 5 hrs charging the battery by .15V with the load disconnected • Battery discharged by .3V with load connected and solar panel attached for 5hrs.

  45. Testing (Continued) • Battery discharged by .4V with load connected with the solar panel charger turned off. • The LCD values for battery voltage and solar panel voltage were compared to multimeter measurements and they were accurate to the nearest tenth of a volt. • The grey code encoder was cycled through every possible position and the logic values were compared with a multimeter to make sure that the LCD was displaying the correct effect
