  • Abstract
    In this paper, we propose a fuzzy chip controller for an intelligent sun tracking system. The integrated circuits used can be incorporated into a single 8051 chip. The intelligent system designed consists of the chip in conjunction with peripheral detection circuits. The system operates fully automatically in capricious environments. Errors that are typically caused by weather variations, or the ambient environment, do not require consideration. In addition, fuzzy theory is utilized to determine whether an angle adjustment is required when charging the lead acid battery using solar energy. The proposed design effectively reduces the number of times the motor is used. The application of database theory to relate the elevation and horizontal angles of the solar battery achieves optimum charging impact by ensuring the solar battery is perpendicular to the solar source.
