display of temperature on 2x16 lcd in 4 bit mode using pic18f4455

[Shafaq Gul]

Hello!
I am using temperature sensor LM35 and 20MHz frequency of pic18f4455 when i simulate my code in Proteus it doesn't work would someone check my code as i have spend couple of days on it.(C18 maplab)

add this before the while loop and comment your initialization commands.

   disp_cmd(0x02);      // To initialize LCD in 4-bit mode.
   dis_cmd(0x20);      // To initialize LCD in 1 lines, 5x7 dots and 4bit mode.
   dis_cmd(0x0C);
   dis_cmd(0x01);
   dis_cmd(0x06);
   dis_cmd(0x80);

Hello!
Its not working i tried...

hello,

if you are working with MPLAB C18 you can use the XLCD library

extract of init

void XLCDInit(void)
{

//PORT initialization  
//4bit mode
//Upper 4-bits of the DATAPORT output
XLCD_DATAPORT_TRIS  &= 0x0f;
XLCD_DATAPORT &= 0x0f;
//control port initialization
XLCD_RSPIN_TRIS =0;                         //make control ports output
XLCD_ENPIN_TRIS =0;
XLCD_RSPIN  =0;                             //clear control ports
XLCD_ENPIN  =0;

//initialization by instruction
//  envoi 3 fois de suite 0x03H sur le quarter MSB du PORTB
XLCDDelay15ms(); 
// Upper nibble interface
XLCD_DATAPORT   &= 0x0f;        // 1ere init
XLCD_DATAPORT   |= 0b00110000;
Pulse_E() ;
XLCDDelay4ms();

// Upper nibble interface
XLCD_DATAPORT   &= 0x0f;        // 2em ini
XLCD_DATAPORT   |= 0b00110000;
Pulse_E() ;
XLCDDelay4ms(); 
   
// Upper nibble interface
XLCD_DATAPORT   &= 0x0f;        // 3em init
XLCD_DATAPORT   |= 0b00110000;
Pulse_E() ;
XLCDDelay4ms();    
    
//Force le mode 4 Bits    0x02H sur quartet MSB du PortB  
//Function SET Commande 0 0 1 DL N F X X  avec RS=0 RW=0
// Upper nibble interface
XLCD_DATAPORT   &= 0x0f;        // Clear upper port
XLCD_DATAPORT   |= 0b00100000;
Pulse_E() ;
   
//Function SET Commande 0 0 1 DL N F X X  avec RS=0 RW=0
//Definit la taille de l'interface (DL=0 pour mode 4 bits, DL=1 pour mode 8 bits),
// le nombre de lignes (NL=0 pour 1 ligne, N=1 pour 2 ou 4 lignes),
// et la taille des fontes (F=0 pour des cars 5x7, F=1 pour des cars 5x10). 
XLCDCommand(0b00101000);    // 0x28     2Line 5x8
//Display on/off control  0 0 0 0 1 D C B 
// affichage (D), curseur (C), clignotement du curseur (B).
XLCDCommand(0b00001000);    //display off
XLCDCommand(0b00000001);    //display clear
//Entry mode setting
//Entry mode command " 0 0 0 0 0 1 ID S "
//ID =0 no cursor increment during read and write
//ID =1 cursor increment during read and write
//S =0 no display during read and write
//S =1 display shift 
       
 XLCDCommand(0b00000110);    //if cursor inc and no display shift
//Display on off ,Blink ,cursor command set 
//"0 0 0 0 1 D C B "
//D=1 dislay on, C=1 cursor on, B=1 blink on
XLCDCommand(0b00001111);    //display on cursor on blink on
// end of initialization
  return;
}

Greetings,
What are the errors? Post your errors or error window.
I can see you have used for loop for delay, it might work in the simulator but for real circuit there are probable chances that it may not work(you have to find correct delay for your commands and data). If you want to be assure that your program works on real circuit use busy pin of LCD.

hello!
Thanks all it worked
