Introduction

Aleka Design Ltd specialise in mixed signal electronic designs for Test & Measurement systems and Instrumentation systems. We provide consultancy and development services on a contract basis and can take projects from a simple idea through to the development stage and on to the production of the first prototype hardware.

Capabilities include analogue digital interfaces and filter designs, analogue digital conversion interfaces, and embedded microcontroller systems.

Sample projects

Solar PV Data Logger to monitor and log the performance of a small micro generation system.

Pump Controller and Data Logger box for a Rainwater Recycling system.

Web Based Remote Lighting Controls

Solar PV Logger

A small Solar PV unit has been installed in our workshop to run a data logger. This page shows the live battery voltage and the current flowing. The current and voltage are monitored by a small ioBridge microcontroller board connected to the internet via an Ethernet link.

Rainwater Pump Controller & Logger

A 700 litre rainwater tank collects water from a down pipe. A small ioBridge microcontroller board monitors the water level in the rainwater tank and controls a pump. The pump pushes water up from the ground level rain tank into a 100 litre loft tank. Water from the loft tank is used to flush the upstairs bathroom and downstairs cloakroom toilets.

Web Based Remote Lighting Controls

This project uses an ioBridge module to control a Rako RAK-4 light dimming unit via serial command from an SB-5 Smart Board. The buttons on the web page mimic the button functions found on a Rako RCP07 wall plate controller.

The lower dial gives a real time indication of the Household Mains Current consumption. The graph is a log of the current consumption over the last three days.
