How to Interface a 7 segment Display with Atmel Microcontroller AT89S51/52/53 Development Board

Basically a 7 segment display in the board is a display consisting of illuminated segments to show the numerical symbols when it is powered ON. Each segment is connected to Port 2 of the AT89S51/52/53 microcontroller via a binary to decimal converter and current limiting resistor. As shown in Figure1 the board consists of 4 seven segments.

Program: Display 1,2,3,4 on the four 7 segment display respectively of Atmel Microcontroller AT89S51/52/53 Development Board

Program Code:

               

                                                                                      7 SEGMENT Display Program

Program Description:

• Inorder to display the numbers 1,2,3,4 on the 7 segment display we have to use the Port 2 of the board.
• To display 1 on the first 7 segment display, enter 0x71 to Port P2.
• Similarly, to display 2 on the 7 segment display enter 0xB2, to display 3 enter 0XD3 and to display 4 enter 0XE4 .
• To have a delay between the displays of numbers a delay function is called out.

Development of the Program in KEIL Microvision (µVision5) Software

• Create Project.

Take “New µvision Project”. Create Project Name “ Sevensegment”.

          

• Select the Microcontroller.

Since our microcontroller is Atmel ATS952/51/53 select it.

                                   

• Create Source File.

Take “File” then New and enter the file name “ Sevensegment.c” and save.

• Add files to project.

Now add the file “Sevensegment.c” to the project created.

                                  

• Set Target.

                                 

• Create HEX File

                                 

• Build Project.

Compiling the program leads to the step of build project.

• Simulate Program and download to the board.

                                    

How to Interface LCD with Atmel Microcontroller AT89S51/52/53 Development Board

Here we will be discussing how to interface a 16x2 LCD with Atmel ATS951/52/53 board. This will display 16 characters in one row. The pin configuration is given below.

Pin No:	Name	Function
Port P1.2	RS	Write data to be displayed LCD.
Port P1.1	R/W	Read or write data from or to LCD.
Port P1.0	E	Start the Module
Port 0 (P0.0-P0.7)	DBO-DB7	Give data to be displayed

Steps to display data on LCD

• E=1; enable pin should be high
• RS=1; Register select should be high
• R/W=0; Read/Write pin should be low.

Send command to the LCD

• E=1; enable pin should be high
• RS=0; Register select should be low
• R/W=1; Read/Write pin should be high.

Some useful commands for LCD Interfacing

• 01 – Clear LCD screen
• 06 -  Increment cursor
• 80 -  Force cursor to beginning of 1st line
• 38 - Use two lines of the display matrix.

How to Interface BUZZER with Atmel Microcontroller AT89S51/52/53 Development Board

Buzzer is just a piezoelectric material in the Atmel board. In this particular board, first set the port P1.4 to one. The sound from the buzzer is due to the piezoelectric diaphragm. The program is given below. Here a delay loop is created for the operation.

Program Code

        

                                                                     Buzzer Interfacing Program

Conclusion

Atmel development board for the microcontroller interfacing is really good for different applications .Its capability to interface 7segment, LCD, LED and other interfaces is an advantage.
