    OBJECTIVES
    To interface 16x2 LCD display with 8051 microcontroller and to enable it for displaying
    different characters.

    SYSTEM AND SOFTWARE TOOLS REQUIRED


    Keil uVision4 compiler, 8051 Microcontroller Development board, 16x2 LCD

    THEORY
    Keil C does not have powerful libraries for 16x2 LCD interfacing. Hence LCD library must be
    developed with common features. Header file lcd.h must include the sub-program for LCD functions.
    LCD can be interfaced with microcontroller in 4 Bit or 8 Bit mode. This differs in how data is send to
    LCD. In 8 bit mode to write a character, 8 bit ASCII data is send through the data lines D0 – D7 and data
    strobe is given through E of the LCD. But 4 Bit Mode uses only 4 data lines D4 – D7. In this mode 8 bit
    character ASCII data and command data are divided into two parts and send sequentially through data
    lines. 4 bit communication is used save pins of microcontroller but it is slower than 8 bit communication.
    ALGORITHMS

    Step1: Include a header file to assign special function registers for ports of the microcontroller
    Step2: Include a header file for LCD i.e. lcd.h
    Step3: Assign LCD module connections to ports of the controller. Example: sbit RS = P0^0;
    Step4: Use sub-routines for invoking delay
    Step5: Use special functions of LCD in main program
    Step6: For 4 bit LCD interface, use LCD4 instead of LCD8 functions

    FUNCTIONS USED FOR INTERFACING LCD:

    Sub-routines for accessing LCD can be designed in header files

    Functions Description
    Lcd8_Clear() Clear the LCD screen
    Lcd8_Set_Cursor() To set the cursor position on the LCD screen
    Lcd8_Write_Char() To write a character
    Lcd8_Write_String() To write a string
    Lcd8_Shift_Left() Shift display left without changing the data in display RAM
    Lcd8_Shift_Right() Shift display right without changing the data in display

    INTERFACING DIAGRAM:
    PROGRAM:
    RESULT
    Thus the 16x2 LCD display is interfaced with 8051 microcontroller and different
    characters was displayed and verified
