PIC micro-controller based data storage system on SD card using FAT file system.
Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject SummaryAt the present time, there is a requirement of data recording system with maximum storage capacity with smallest size. In this project we intend to make a portable and automated data recording system in minimum cost. In this project the storage device will be SD card interfaced with PIC micro-controller in order to minimize the size of our data logger.
Project Objectives
• To develop a standalone and automated low-cost system for data recording.
• To provide user-interface to read/write data on SD card in FAT32 format.
• To develop an application to perform following file operations.

Project Implementation MethodPIC micro-controller will be there for recording data on SD card using Serial Peripheral Interfacing mode of SD card. Some of the sensors like temperature sensor, microphone and camera (optional) will be interfaced to provide some additional features. The recorded data/images will be saved into the SD card using FAT-32 format, displayed on LCD screen and can be accessed by using numeric keypad. The user will be able to perform file operations that is read/write with additional features like deleting and renaming.
Benefits of the Project• To develop a standalone and automated low-cost system for data recording.
• To provide user-interface to read/write data on SD card in FAT32 format.
• To develop an application to perform following file operations.
