I. INTRODUCTION

In this modern world mobile phones and the related

technologies are becoming more and more prevalent.
Now- a-days advertisement is going digital. Many
new communication technologies have been
developed in the last couple of decades. Sharing
information is the main aim of any communication

III. HARDWARE DESIGN
Components essential for the working of project are:
 GSM modem
 SIM
 LCD
 Microcontroller
 Power supply
 Voltage regulator
a) GSM Modem: A GSM modem is a wireless
modem it behaves like a dial-up modem
which works with a GSM wireless network.
The major difference between them is that a
dial-up modem sends and receives data
through a fixed telephone line whereas a
wireless modem sends receives data through
medium of radio waves. Just like a GSM
cell-mobile phone, a GSM modem needs a
SIM card from a wireless carrier in order to
operate. In addition to the standard AT
command GSM modem support an extended
set of AT commands.

on small card consisting of user’s
information as well as phone book. As per
convenient, user can alter the operator with
retaining the same handset. Nowadays
market which brings the advantage of two
different operators at the same time. User
can choose the SIM card as per need and
requirement.

c) LCD:-LCD- liquid crystal display, is a
electronic device for displaying text or
characters. We are using 14 pins LCD and
the description is as follows:
 Pin 7 to pin 14 –all 8 pins are responsible for the
transfer of data.
 Pin4-this is RS i.e. register select pin.
 Pin5 – this is R/W i.e. read/write pin.
 Pin6 – this is E i.e. Enable pin.
 Pin2 – this is VDD i.e. power supply pin.
 Pin1 – this is VSS i.e. ground pin.

d) MICROCONTROLLER AT-MEGA 8A:-
AVR is a family of microcontrollers
developed by Atmel beginning in 1996.
These are modified Harvard architecture 8-
bit RISC single- chip microcontrollers. The
Atmel AVR core combines a rich instruction
set with 32 general purpose working
registers. All the 32 registers are directly
connected to the arithmetic logic unit
(ALU), allowing two independent registers
to be accessed in one single instruction
executed in one clock cycle.[4] The resulting
architecture is more code efficient while
achieving throughput up to ten times faster
than conventional CISC microcontrollers.
Here we go diagram, sleep mode and
features. But before talking about ATmega8
pin diagram, let’s first go through the
Atmega8 block diagram. The main feature
of Atmega8 microcontroller is that, all the
pins of the microcontroller support two
signals except 5-pins. The Atmega8
microcontroller consists of 28 pin where pin
9, 10,14,15,16,17,18,19 are used for port B,
pins 23,24,25,26,27,28 and 1 are used for
port C and pins 2,3,4,5,6,11,12 are used for
port D.

e) POWER SUPPLY:-The 9v battery is a
common size of battery that was introduced
for the early transistor radios. It has a
rectangular prism shape with rounded edges
and a polarized snap connector at the top.
This type is commonly used in walkie-
talkies, clocks and smoke detectors. The
none-volt battery format is commonly
available in primary carbon-zinc and
alkaline chemistry, in primary lithium iron
disulphide, and in rechargeable form in
nickel-cadmium, nickel-metal hydride and
lithium-ion.

 VI. CONCLUSION

GSM system is the collaboration of software &

hardware through which most of the complicity
reduces, even systems size & coast also reduced.
Such human aeration put us spell bound that why a
topic of invention is taken robotics design. The GSM
based digital notice board system that we have
created has been in practical use in various
companies like in construction companies and
research areas, railway, college.
