7-Segment LED display interfaced with LPC2148 microcontroller

7 Segment Display is an array of 8 LEDs connected or arranged in a special pattern together to form or display the digits from 0-9 and Dot functions also.
LPC2148 micro-controller is an ARM architecture based 32-bit controller used many embedded applications.

Program:

#include <LPC214X.H>
long int i;
int main()
{
IODIR1 = 0xffffffff; //configure output Port 1
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff; // clear previous output stored
while(1)
{
IOSET1=0x00060000;
for(i=0;i<50000;i++);
IOCLR0=0xffffffff;
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff;
IOSET1=0x005b0000;
for(i=0;i<50000;i++);
IOCLR0=0xffffffff;
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff;
IOSET1=0x004f0000;
for(i=0;i<50000;i++);
IOCLR0=0xffffffff;
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff;
IOSET1=0x00660000;
for(i=0;i<50000;i++);
IOCLR0=0xffffffff;
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff;
IOSET1=0x006d0000;
for(i=0;i<50000;i++);
IOCLR0=0xffffffff;
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff;
IOSET1=0x007d0000;
for(i=0;i<50000;i++);
IOCLR0=0xffffffff;
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff;
IOSET1=0x00070000;
for(i=0;i<50000;i++);
IOCLR0=0xffffffff;
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff;
IOSET1=0x007f0000;
for(i=0;i<50000;i++);
IOCLR0=0xffffffff;
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff;
IOSET1=0x006f0000;
for(i=0;i<50000;i++);
IOCLR0=0xffffffff;
IOCLR1 = 0xffffffff;
}

Theory:

7-segment display contains 10 pins- 8 for LEDs, 1 for common cathode and other one for common anode. 8 LEDs structure forms a display in format of "8" which is used to display counting from 0 to 9 one at a time. You can operate it in two modes- common cathode and common anode.

Four 7-segment displays are connection of four displays in a row (as shown in a figure). The features of four 7-segment is same as single 7-segment but, the only difference is that you can display number from 0000 to 9999. These are types are very much applied in general display applications as they are easy to implement and costs less than other display. There is slight different in coding part of four 7-segment display compared to single 7-segment.

  1. As reported by Stanford Medical, It is in fact the SINGLE reason this country's women live 10 years longer and weigh on average 42 lbs lighter than us.

    (And really, it really has NOTHING to do with genetics or some hard exercise and absolutely EVERYTHING about "how" they are eating.)

    BTW, I said "HOW", not "WHAT"...

Buzzer interface with 8051 microcontroller

Buzzer  is a electronic device that converts the electronic signal into buzzing noise, that is applied to it. It can be used as electronic bell or as quiz buzzer in many applications around us. Here, i world like to discuss the interfacing of a small buzzer with 8051 microcontroller and how different projects can be constructed. Buzzer Interfacing: This project shows the interface with AT89S52 microcontroller to a buzzer. When a push button is pressed, the buzzer will get ON and OFF ( number of times set in the code ) and then stops. Circuit Diagram: - The port P1 of the microcontroller is connected to buzzer. This type of connection is possible, if the current requirements of the buzzer is not more than 20mA. The output is in current source mode so that buzzer will turn ON when the output of the port is logic LOW. Switch is connected to port P3 which remains at logic HIGH by pull up resistor.  Code: #include "REG52.h" #define buz P1 sbit SW=P3^0; long i...

Comparison Chart Between 8051, 8052, 8031and 8751

8051 is a popular 8-bit microcontroller and has been used in many applications since Intel introduced it. Many 8051 architecture are produced by Triscend, Intel, Atmel, Philips, Infineon (Siemens), ISSI, and Max Corp. Today, 8051 microcontrollers may not be popular but, the 8051 architecture is still popular and employed in thousands of embedded applications. This 8-bit architecture has been different segments such as 8052, 8051, 8751 and 8031 . 8052 is the super-set of 8051 and 8031 is the memory-less microcontroller hence, it has interfaced with external ROM. Whereas, 8751 chip has only 4Kbytes of on chip UV-EPROM. Everyone knows about the general 40-pin microcontroller i.e. 8051 introduced by Intel in 1980s and consists of serial communication pins, Timer, Interrupts, RAM, ROM. It has 4 ports and each port has 8 pins, total 32 pins and other 8 pins for other purposes. 8052 is the super-set of 8051 that consists of 8K bytes of internal RAM (4K in 8051), 256 by...

Different ways to generate delays in 8051

The delay length in 8051 microcontroller depends on three factors: The crystal frequency the number of clock per machine the C compiler. The original 8051 used 1/12 of the crystal oscillator frequency as one machine cycle. In other words, each machine cycle is equal to 12 clocks period of the crystal frequency connected to X1-X2 pins of 8051. To speed up the 8051, many recent versions of the 8051 have reduced the number of clocks per machine cycle from 12 to four, or even one. The frequency for the timer is always 1/12th the frequency of the crystal attached to the 8051, regardless of the 8051 version. In other words, AT89C51, DS5000, and DS89C4x0 the duration of the time to execute an instruction varies, but they all use 1/12th of the crystal's oscillator frequency for the clock source. 8051 has two different ways to generate time delay using C programming, regardless of 8051 version. The first method is simply using Loop   program function in which Delay() funct...
