hello mates;

I have written the code for displaying characters on 16*2 LCD with 8051 in C language (in 8 bit mode);
however i could not see any output on my Proteus simulator.
I checked my code again and again, can i have your expert looks please...

thanks & regards,
Pravin B


here is code:::::::::

Code:
#include<REG51.H>

sbit rs=P0^0;							//rs connected to p0.0
sbit rw=P0^1;							//rw connected to p0.1
sbit en=P0^2;							//en connected to p0.2
sbit busy=P2^7;							//busy connected to p2.7

void delay(unsigned int count)			//delay subroutine
{
unsigned int i,j;
for(i=0;i<=count;i++)
	for(j=0;j<=1275;j++);
}

void ready()							//subroutine to check if lcd is busy
{
busy=1;									//make busy pin input
rs=0;									//rs=low
rw=1;									//rw=high
while(busy==0)							//check if busy flag is equal to 0
	{
	en=0;
	delay(2);
	en=1;
	}
}

void lcd_cmd(unsigned int value)		//sub. to write commands 
{
ready();
P2=value;
rs=0;
rw=0;
en=1;
delay(2);
en=0;
}

void lcd_data(unsigned int value)		//sub to write data
{
ready();
P2=value;
rs=1;
rw=0;
en=1;
delay(2);
en=0;
}

void lcd_init()							 //lcd initializtion
{
lcd_cmd(0x38);
lcd_cmd(0x0E);
lcd_cmd(0x01);
lcd_cmd(0x06);
lcd_cmd(0x80);
}

void main()
{
rs=0;									 //rs=output
rw=0;									 //rw=output
en=0;									 //en=output
P2=0x00;								 //port2=output

while(1)
	{
	lcd_init();								 //call lcd initializtion
	lcd_data('A');							 //send char A
	lcd_data('b');
	lcd_data('c');
	lcd_data('D');
	delay(50);
	}
}

 

u hav not grounded vss and vee and given +5v to vdd,first do it then report
 
hi pratzz,
I have applied the +5v to vdd and ground to VSS,VEE but still the result is same...their is no errors in code???? please confirm if for me...
 

i hav never used busy flag but otherwise your pgm luks ok.
but change port 0 to port 1 as port 0 requires pull up resistors,mayb perhaps tats the problem
 
no probs,there is option of helped me in the post.always click it if u find sum1's post useful
