keypad

a keypad cosists of a matrix of rows and columns. a typical mobile k/p has 4 rows/4 cols. each button is a unique connection between a row and a col. to detect a key, you drive the rows one by one and read cols one by one.

Re: keypad

send to me C Code for this by debouncing and so on........
and send drawn design of it
thx

i dont have the code right now. but you should be able to get enough info on the internet.

Re: keypad

it's quite simple . just connect the 8 wires of the keypad with a port of the microcontroller. if it's 8051 connect with port1( for instance). but remember to connect all the rows wires at one nibble & the cols wires at other nibbles. then in ur coding first write 0fh at the port then read the port and store the result. the write f0h and do the same. then logically OR the two results. thats ur code for the pressed key.( if no key pressed u'll have ffh) then after a little delay repeat the same process( for debounce).


i've the coding if u need that i can upload it here for u

Re: keypad

hi, I'm sending a PICC code to you... It was originally written for PIC 16f877

But definitely you can get an idea about how to interface a keypad.

Sorry for not applying comments. I think you can understand it without a problem.
A simple code.

// reads the keypad and returns a charater
char kbd_read(){

delay_ms(120);
//delay_ms(1);

output_b(0b00001100);
if(!input(PIN_B4)){
return '1';
} else if(!input(PIN_B5)){
return '4';
} else if(!input(PIN_B6)){
return '7';
} else if(!input(PIN_B7)){
return '+';
}

output_b(0b00001010);
if(!input(PIN_B4)){
return '2';
} else if(!input(PIN_B5)){
return '5';
} else if(!input(PIN_B6)){
return '8';
} else if(!input(PIN_B7)){
return '0';
}

output_b(0b00000110);
if(!input(PIN_B4)){
return '3';
} else if(!input(PIN_B5)){
return '6';
} else if(!input(PIN_B6)){
return '9';
} else if(!input(PIN_B7)){
return '#';
} else {
return '+';
}
