Program PIC to interface 2x16 LCD using C code & LCD.c
PostPosted: Wed Nov 18, 2009 5:49 am     Reply with quote

Am using PIC 16f72 and PIC 16f877. Working on it for my project. Using C language for programming.
Now I need to program my chip to interface a 2x16 LCD.
Wrote a simple code to display a "Hello" message.
Oops... it didn't work. Included the program below.
Nothing is wrong with my LCD module, chip and programmmer (ICD2) and pin connections are correct.
Using MPLAB IDE and CCS C.
Before burning, I included the LCD.c file under other files.
Please guide me in this concern to rectify the error.

Not all LCD modules are the same. Some things to check are:
Do you need to wait a certain amount of time after power-up before
doing anything? Are the delays in the code enough? Does your LCD
require any different or extra initialization commands? Are you sure you
have your contrast/backlight correct?

This post has several links to threads about LCD problems.
Read them all and you will probably find the problem.

You are not supposed to publish this code! What is the part you didn't understand?

There is no need to post the code. Everybody using the CCS compiler already has it.
