How to : Interfacing Nokia 6100 LCD (color LCD)

Nokia 6100 LCD
The Nokia 6100 display is able to display 130 by 130 pixels with 8-bit or 12-bit color (4096 colors) and it has a LED backlight. It is controlled with Serial Peripheral Interface Bus (SPI). That means it needs only 3 wires for controlling it : Serial data(SDATA) ,Serial clock(SCLK) ,Chip select (CS).[more]

Interfacing Your Computer to an ADC via the Parallel Port

Interfacing Your Computer to an ADC via the Parallel Port
Interfacing an Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) with Linux via the parallel port is fairly simple. There two major areas that need to be addressed - hardware and software. The hardware consists of the parallel port, an ADC, and an analog signal source. The software programmed in ‘C’ language.[more]

How to : Printing Custom Characters on a Character LCD

Printing Custom Characters on a Character LCD
This article discusses how to overwrite bytes in the CGRAM to display custom bit-map graphics on a Hitachi HD44780-compatible character LCD display. A method is described of transforming a raster image to an array of values that are a monochrome bit-map representation of the original.[more]

How to : RS232 Communication Test Routine

RS232 Communication Test Routine
The concept is : fully software controlled RS232 reception and transmission for PIC16F8x.Display of received ASCII characters sent from PC via RS232 and their corresponding decimal value on the LCD. Microcontroller sends feedback of received characters back to the terminal window. When the PIC terminal is idle, it sends a status message ‘@’ to the PC every 2.75 seconds.[more]
