Communication Based Project Ideas for Engineering Students

Using 8051 series Microcontrollers, a large number of communication based projects can be done. It involves variety of communication protocols like UART, RS232/Serial communication, I2C, CAN, Ethernet etc. Understanding these protocols gives practical exposure on how to interface various hardware devices/modules to the microcontroller. Programming concepts plays vital role in designing such projects. Knowledge on assembly language or C language is a pre-requisite for handling such projects. Student level projects covers a wide range of areas those are commonly used in domestic and industrial applications such as GSM/GPS/Bluetooth/RFID/DTMF/Mobile/Ethernet/RF/XBEE/Networking/Data Acquisition/Smart Card.
