Problem in Hex to Decimal point Conversion in ADC output on LCD in MPLAB IDE

[ecaits]

Hello Gurus,

I am using PIC16F877 in MPLAB IDE 7.60, using Hitech C Compiler and MPLAB ICD debugger.

Now I want to display 10 bit ADC output in float point on 16x2 LCD. I am getting ADC output in HEX and by modulo division method I am getting individual decimal value and storing it in one array. In array I am getting exact decimal value but when i m taking it in any variable then it shows in hex format.

My input is 0-5V and i am getting 0-1023 range in ADC output. But I want to display 0.0 to 150.0 (like 145.9) on LCD. To reduce range from 0-1023 to 0.0 to 150.0, I have to divide 0-1023 range by 6.82 so I will get output in floating point to display on LCD.

To divide by 6.82, I should get range 0-1023 in decimal format but it always get in hex format in variable as well as registers.

How I Can solve the issue???

char WhatGetsDisplayed[6];
sprintf(WhatGetsDisplayed,"%f",ADCOutput/6.82);
FunctionToShowOnLCD(WhatGetsDisplayed);

Sorry, I do not know the actual name of the function HTC uses to put text on an LCD.
