This is our sixth tutorial in our PIC Tutorial Series, in this tutorial we learn Interfacing of 16×2 LCD with PIC Microcontroller. In our previous tutorials we have learnt the basics of PIC using some LED blinking Programs and have also learnt How to use Timers in PIC Microcontroller. You can check here all the tutorials […]

In our previous tutorial, we have learnt How to Interface a 16*2 LCD with PIC Microcontroller. We recommend you to go through it before going any further, if you are beginner in PIC microcontroller. Previously we have also learnt the basics of PIC using LED blinking Program and Timers in PIC Microcontroller. You can check here all

How to interface LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) display module to PIC microcontroller? LCD is a passive component, that is it does not make any light but just modifies the light passing through it for alphanumeric displays. LCD is exclusively manufactured to be used with microcontrollers, which means that it cannot be triggered by usual IC

This project is one another thermometer application that uses the TCN75A digital sensor from Microchip. The sensor provides digital temp conversion in the range -40°C – 125°C (-40°F – 257°F) and has maximum resolution 0.0625°C. However, the LCD that I used (2.5 digits model LCD-S2X1C50TR manufactured by Lumex) only works reliably in the temperature range
The new PIC18F2550 Project Board was designed as the development platform for student projects. The board features MCU: PIC18F2550 with external xtal, ADC: one channel 0-2.5V sigma-delta converter, Linear Technology LTC2400/LTC2420, 6-channal 10-bit ADC 0-5V, Display: Two connectors for text LCD or GLCD, USB: onchip USB port with type B connector, Power supply: onboard low
This post provides the LCD[1] interfacing code using PIC12F675 microcontroller. This code is written in C language using MPLAB with HI-TECH C compiler. You can download this code from the ‘Downloads‘ section at the bottom of this page. It is assumed that you know how to make an LED blink with PIC12F675 microcontroller. If you don’t

Introduction HD44780 based character LCDs require at least 6 I/O lines from microcontroller to display data. Therefore, they are not suitable for low-pin microcontrollers like PIC12F series microchips. In this project, I am going to show how to drive an HD44780 based LCD display with only 3 pins of a microcontroller. I am going to
This project shows how to build a very simple yet very useful tool that every DIY enthusiast should have in his lab: a 100MHz+ frequency counter. The schematic is fairly simple and straightforward and uses a PIC16F628A microcontroller for measuring frequency and a high speed comparator for signal amplification and conditioning. The microcontroller uses its internal 4MHz

Here is a library to interface your PIC code to an LCD that is controlled via a serial line. One such LCD is available from Scott Edwards Electronics. There are many others, and the code shown here can easily be adpated to other LCD displays by changing some defines. The following files are referenced below,
