Honorable
Mention
Handheld
Power Meter
The
optical Handheld Power Meter was built for use in fiber optics
labs. The unit is designed around the H8/38024 microcontroller,
which enables the implementation of battery-powered devices
with the addition of a battery-based power supply. The microcontroller’s
on-board LCD drivers are used for the four-digit, seven-segment
LCD. And the on-board SCI is used for RS-232 communication
with a PC. The power meter calibration is handled by a Windows-based
application.
