MULTIPLEXER SYSTEM
Sensor Map
37 bytes.
Each byte 1 Column.
Each bit represents row number.
Sensor sweep will fill sensor map
one row at a time.
When all 37 columns for each row
complete next row will begin.
Embedded Design
begin
Loop
next
read AD
store AD in TEMP
change MUX controls
ITERATION += 1
bit test bit 0
branch {bit not set} to next
set bit MAP_POINTER + BIT_POINTER
MAP_POINTER += 1
Shift TEMP
Test ITERATION
branch {less than 8 } to loop
ITERATION = 0
Test MAP_POINTER
Branch { less than 37 } to begin
BIT_POINTER += 1
Test BIT_POINTER
Branch {less than 8} to begin
BIT_POINTER = 0
Foreseeable Problems
Multiplexing of I/O.
Blocks contacting multiple sensors.
Two Blocks on same sensor.
