The project is as follows:
Description:
A Vessel has a standpipe connected. A float is installed inside the standpipe to float at the level of the liquid. A ring of magnets are incorporated into the body of the float and act upon a strip sensor attached to the outside of the standpipe. The sensor consists of eight reed switched that are closed as the magnet passes upward and open when the magnet passes downward.
Design and construct a digital circuit that will use the sensor condition to provide:
1. a two digit level indication
2.High and low level alarms
3. a 1-5vdc signal proportional to the level.
Include a block diagram with a brief circuit description and a full circuit diagram.
I will be constructing this circuit using logic trainers and ICs.
I not really sure where to start, what type of chips i need and how the circuit layout would be.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks In advance
