The way to monitor power transformer has started to evolve from typical monitoring technique to a new development of using energy harvesting technology to activate sensors network for the monitoring purpose. The ambient heat energy obtained from the power transformer will be harvested to turn on power electronic compensator and driven the sensors.

communication device and be used by the user whether the temperature of power transformer is still in control or not.

This project only covered up until the operation of TEG and the design a boost converter which used LTC3108 IC and also Surface Mount Device (SMD). This design of boost converter must be compact and able to step-up the voltage produce by the TEG which in range between 0.7V to 1.5V into a minimum output level which is at least 5V.

The LTC3108 is a highly integrated DC-DC converter ideal for harvesting and managing surplus energy from extremely low input voltage sources such as TEGs thermopiles and small solar cells. The step-up topology operates from input voltages as low as 20mV.

Using a small step-up transformer, the LTC3108 provides a complete power management solution for wireless sensing and data acquisition. The 2.2V LDO powers an external microprocessor, while the main output is programmed to one of four fixed voltages to power a wireless transmitter or sensors. The power good indicator signals that the main output voltage is within regulation. A second output can be enabled by the host. A storage capacitor provides power when the input voltage source is unavailable. Extremely low quiescent current and high efficiency design ensure the fastest possible charge times of the output reservoir capacitor.

1.2 Project Objective

i. To design a compact DC-DC boost converter using LTC3108 IC and SMD in order to increase and stabilize the output voltage generated from the TEG. ii. To demonstrate experimentally DC/DC boost converter using LTC3108.

iii. To analyze and evaluate the characteristic of TEG and output range produced from the boost converter whether it capable to supply a sufficient voltage and activated at least small electronic devices.

1.3 Problem Statement

i. TEG generated power which is varies, intermittent and limited, so the power management circuit (PMC) using DC-DC boost converter which use an LTC3108 and SMD component can be used to stabilize the power to the load and also extract maximum power.

ii. The needs of alternative power supply to power the sensor system to grant the effectiveness of the sensor system.

iii. The maintenance cost to change the battery is a big issue as batteries is known to have short lifetime

1.4 Scope of Work

i. Determine the output voltage that can be harvested from the TEG circuit based on temperature different from surrounding. This output voltage will be used as an input to the boost converter circuit.

ii. Developed circuit which is used to power up the PIC circuit that involving the TEG and boost converter using LTC3108 IC, SMD component and fabricated circuit . Where SMD component consists of resistor, capacitor and small transformer.
