Implementation of Fuzzy Logic in Temperature Control Automation Start Phase Quail Brooder

A brooder cage quail starter which has heated incandescent lamps. Brooder that exists today is conventional using human power to control the temperature to keep constant to reduce the high mortality on quail starter phase. Furthermore, the conventional brooder required great lighting and high energy because the lights are controlled turned on and off within 24 hours. The researchers designed an automatic brooder using the ATmega328 microcontroller. Comparing the temperature control the temperature read by the sensor LM35 with a specified setpoint temperature. The dimmer generates an attenuation level that makes the bright light or dim according to the reading LM35 temperature sensor. Attenuators made according to the needs of the lights on so you can save electricity use. The temperature control process level attenuator using the fuzzy logic control Sugeno. The DC fan turn on when the temperature exceeds the set point as hot air circulation and reduce the temperature in the brooder. While the buzzer is used as a reference time, reminders of feeding time are based on RTC. The results obtained by designing an early stage quail the first week to maintain the temperature according to the set point 34°C. The success rate of 93.33% is obtained with the death of 1 tail quail. During the test, the temperature can be controlled according to the required temperature quail specification is 33-35 ° C.
