Perancangan Sistem Pengendali Suhu dan Kelembaban untuk Budidaya Jamur Kuping
Abstract: Mushroom cultivation
is a new source of food. The cultivation requires the control of temperature
and humidity to produce good quality of mushroom. Nowdays, there are many tools
of automatic or manual temperature and humidity control system. However, they
have many limitation in practical situation, such as difficulties in use and
assembly. This research aims to design and make a better prototype of
temperature and humidity control system, which can improve the productivity of
mushroom harvest.The research method has two phases, that are conceptual design
and tool and system design. The conceptual design phase includes need
identification, system design, and component selection. The second phase are
tools application and main system, includes microcontroller, sensor, heater,
refrigerator, electronic circuit, hardware, the programming tool, and assembly
of tools.The research produces a prototype of temperature and humidity control
by using ATmega16 microcontroller, which increases the response time of
temperature and humidity control, automatically controlling the system, easy to
use and maintanance, and improve the previous system which is still manual
control. The prototype is able to help the farmers to control the temperature
and humidity in mushroom cultivation. The result from the application of the
prototype indicates that it can increase the productivity of the mushroom
harvest.
