16X2 LCD and 8051 interfacing

How to interface 16X2 LCD with 8051?
Several electronic devices and projects require a message to be displayed in order to indicate their functioning. This topic explains how to display a message (string) on 16x2 LCD by interfacing it to 8051 microcontroller (AT89C52).

Temperature Sensor using 741 OPAMP & LM35

Image
This project uses IC LM35 as a sensor for detecting accurate centigrade temperature. Linearity defines how well over a range of temperature a sensor’s output consistently changes. Unlike thermistor, Linearity of a precision IC Sensors are very good of 0.5°C accuracy and has wide temperature range. its output voltage is linearly proportional to the Celsius (Centigrade) temperature. The LM35 is rated to operate over a -55° to +150°C temperature range.It draws only 60 µA from its supply, it has very low self-heating, less than 0.1°C in still air. LM35 Operates from 4 to 30 volts. Output of IC is 10mv/degree centigrade for eg if the output of sensor is 280 mV then temperature is 28 degree C. so by using a Digital multimeter we can easily calculate the degree temperature. For trigger point you should set the voltage of pin 2 of IC 741 by using preset or potentiometer. Our aim of this project is not to construct a thermometer but to activate or deactivate a device at a particular m...

Custom Character Display in 16X2 LCD

Image
The commonly used 16x2  LCD  can also display custom made characters besides numbers, alphabets & special characters. Any character can be made to appear on a 5x8 pixel matrix element without knowledge of its ASCII value. The idea explained here demonstrates the principle and operation of a simple LCD custom character display using 8051 microcontroller  (AT89C51 ).

How to interface the stepper motor

Image
       This project is an extension to two-phase  Unipolar Stepper motor interfacing with AT89C51 using IC L293D .  In the previous project, transistor switches were used to interface the stepper motor with the microcontroller.         Stepper motor is a variable reluctance DC motor.  When correct input sequence of signal is given to  the motor, it starts rotation in steps.  (For more detail refer Unipolar Stepper motor interfacing with microcontroller AT89C51). Note: Stepper motor is a DC motor in which the rotor is made to rotate in steps of x- degrees, where x depends on the type of excitation. In this example we would be considering a simple unipolar stepper motor.   The conceptual model of the unipolar stepper motor is as shown below
