Temperature Sensor : Interfacing LM35 and LCD Display to PIC18F4550

[leonard]

Hey.

 

I need some help with my programming for Temperature Sensor. I used LM35 and connected it to PORTAbits.RA0 so as to make use of the ADC module. I connected my LCD display to PORTD. However, I can't display the temperature=t on my LCD display. Can someone check my source code? I managed to build it successfully but unable to show the temperature. Below is the result of my Temperature Sensor. As you can see, the black block was supposed to show the temperature. Here's my code :

 

 

//Temperature Sensor –  Convert the Analog signal to Digital and Display it to the LCD Display Board

 

#include <p18F4550.h>

#include <delays.h>

#include "lcd.h" // Include file is located in the project directory

 

 

 

// Include this when using Bootloader Program ================================

#pragma udata

 

extern void _startup (void);        // See c018i.c in your C18 compiler dir

#pragma code _RESET_INTERRUPT_VECTOR = 0x000800

void _reset (void)

{

    _asm goto _startup _endasm

}

#pragma code

 

#pragma code _HIGH_INTERRUPT_VECTOR = 0x000808

void _high_ISR (void)

{

    ;

}

 

#pragma code _LOW_INTERRUPT_VECTOR = 0x000818

void _low_ISR (void)

{

    ;

}

#pragma code

#define LCD_EN PORTDbits.RD4    //  Enable on LCD controller

//— Function for writing a command byte to the LCD in 4 bit mode

void lcd_write_cmd(signed char cmd)

{

    unsigned char temp2;

    LCD_RS = 0; // Select LCD for command mode

    Delay10TCYx(4); // 40us delay for LCD to settle down

    temp2 = cmd;

    temp2 = temp2 >> 4; // Output upper 4 bits, by shifting out lower 4 bits

    PORTD = temp2 & 0x0F; // Output to PORTD which is connected to LCD

 

    Delay1KTCYx(10); // 10ms – Delay at least 1 ms before strobing

    lcd_strobe();

    lcd_strobe();

    Delay1KTCYx(10); // 10ms – Delay at least 1 ms before strobing

{

   char temp1;

    Delay1KTCYx(10); //_-_ strobe data in

 

    lcd_strobe();

    Delay1KTCYx(10);

 

    temp1 = data;

    PORTD = temp1 & 0x0F;

    Delay1KTCYx(10);  //_-_ strobe data in

 

    lcd_strobe();

    /* The data sheets warn that the LCD module may fail to initialise properly when

       power is first applied. This is particularly likely if the Vdd

       supply does not rise to its correct operating voltage quickly enough.

 

       It is recommended that after power is applied, a command sequence of

       3 bytes of 30h be sent to the module. This will ensure that the module is in

       8-bit mode and is properly initialised. Following this, the LCD module can be

       switched to 4-bit mode.
