Pic16f690 Serial Communication C Code Tutorial Inverter

This project shows you how to create a serial LCD module that you can drive from any serial RS232 interface. You may be asking yourself why is this project using RS232 when computers are no longer even produced with a serial port as standard? There are three reasons: • Most microcontrollers come with a UART built-in as a hardware module. • RS232 can be setup with 2 signal wires and one ground connection. • RS232 can be operated over long distance. The last point means that signal transmission can be made fairly error free and robust (although you can achieve higher data rates and lower error rates by using the full RS232 spec). However it is probably better to move to a multi-drop interface such as RS485.

Since the hardware module is built in it becomes super-easy to use the internal UART which can use interrupts allowing fast and transparent operation. The only problem now becomes what to do about the interface in the PC and you either buy an RS232 to USB adaptor cable that presents an RS232 interface as a COM port in the usual way at the PC but allows it to be plugged into a USB port or you can use a Digital to Serial USB converter. This last one does away with RS232 signals altogether and instead provides digital RX/TX signals to plug straight into the microcontroller i.e.

You miss out the MAX232 chip. Ultimately both work fine and both look the same at the PC side. Here is some more information on. Project Design The design here uses a pure ASCII command set so you can control it easily from a terminal program such as Tera Term (download from web = free). There are no \'odd\' command sequences such as 0xef to define a command - you can type all commands at the terminal interface making it very easy to use i.e. This is a purely text based control system. If you want to use it as a debugging terminal for your PIC projects then it makes sense to remove the level translator and just use the 0-5V input otherwise you would end up having two level translators for no real reason!

Note: Using it like this you will need to invert the RS232 output data so you either need an inverter chip if driven from the built in USART or you can drive it using a software USART (The transmitter part anyway) since you will have full control over the output signal. Serial LCD Specification Baud Rate 9600 Crystal 20Mhz -You can use a lower value xtal but must re-compile the files and set the clock value into the MikroC chip settings. Serial LCD Project Details Serial LCD Project Compiler Mikroelectronika MikroC compiler Free! Target 16F877A (retargetable to other PICs that have enough pins and a built in USART). Software level Easy. Software notes Uses unget_char to reverse getchar action. Hardware level easy.

Hardware notes No special notes. Project version 1.01 Project files Enter your details to get the Download Link and get the microcontroller newsletter. (Your email is safe it will never be sold or rented). You will get All the C source code and hex file. Note: Check your email for the project code download link. You can recompile the serial LCD files if you want examine code operation (using the built in simulator) or change the source code. Note the hex file is contained in the download.
