Displaying ADC sensor data on lcd.
PostPosted: Tue Apr 15, 2008 1:10 pm     Reply with quote
I solved the problem feeling like an idiot. Used 16x2 code instead of 20x4.
But o well...

My new problem arise i am currently building an electronic scale using strain gauges i have already conditioned my signal for a 0kg 0v and full scale 2kg 2v when i try to display the result i get gibberish on the lcd.

Code:
void scale_measure()
{
  uchar CNT;
   
   set_adc_channel(0);

   VBP_VAL = 0xFFFF;
       

   while(1)
   {
  delay_us(20);
   VBP_VAL = Read_ADC(ADC_START_AND_READ);
   VBP_VAL = VBP_VAL * 1000
   

}


To be honest i dont know what im doing...
I have set up

// Configure Port_A for Analog I
Setup_ADC_Ports( AN0_AN1_AN2_AN3_AN4 );


// Setup AD clock
SETUP_ADC( ADC_CLOCK_INTERNAL );

Ps how do i delete an old post!!

See this post. It shows how to read the ADC value, do some math on it,
and display it on an LCD:
