Core control circuit for submillimiterrobot

摘要

The biomicrorobotic is an emerging technology involving microelectronic, robotic and biomedical sciences and technologies in order to help medicine to perform better treatments. Autonomous biomicrorobots (BMR) needs a control core to perform special tasks. This paper describes a microcontroller architecture selected to perform BMR's control algorithms for legs displacement. This microcontroller is based on an 8-bits RISC architecture and coupled with a Manchester decoder for communication purpose. As input signal goes through a serial port, a serial/parallel converter has been implemented to load instructions in the microcontroller. The technology CMOS 0.18 /spl mu/m is targeted for implementation. The output signals for legs control will be transmitted through a 8-bits parallel ports.
