| I need ccs c code for seven segment displaying frequency |
 Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2011 9:51 am |
 |
|
I would really appreciate if somebody can give a complete complete ccs c code to make a frequency counter with three seven segment display for 16f877a. I made one but it doesn't work because i don't understand how to integrate the timer function with the seven segment display. Please somebody help me with this.... i used ex_freq example and could display it in a lcd but seven segment gets me confused.
thanks...  |

There's a lot of examples out there that you can look at.
You can read messages here and see the outpouring of free help given to those who make an honest effort at getting it done themselves.
Heck, I hardly ever post original topics here -- but even I still get stuck every now and then and would like additional opinions or observations from others.
However, usually when you ask someone to completely write something for you to be delivered in a finished form, that person is usually referred to as a consultant or contractor. And they are happy to do it for you at their normal prices.
However, requests to have others do your work for you - for free - are usually frowned upon -- just so you know.
Cheers,
-Ben

So,
Now let's talk about your 7segment display.
Typically, you have outputs from the PIC that either drive the LED segments directly or if you want to save pins, you can use a 7seg driver that usually requires less PIC I/O's.
From there, to handle multiple displays, you simple loop across display 1, then 2, then 3. This could be an ISR (timer) or just stuck in main.
if the CCP is capturing the times (for your frequency measurement) then another ISR like the display running is less of a problem. However, if there's ANY software critical part of measuring the frequency, then another ISR is a bad idea..
Let me find a 7seg decoder... brb

Look at the CD4511 7seg display driver.
Using it would have some advantages over a PIC strobing through the displays (resulting in flickering) where the CD4511 is latched and keeps those segments full on.

Obvious place to start is to post your code and schematic so we can help.
You're 3 digit 7 segment LED unit may be common anode or common cathode, that makes a HUGE difference.
You don't say what frequency range you need. 1Hz to 100 MHz ?????
We need more specs and your code to help you. |

I need a frequency counter not more than 20 khz. I get good reading with the ex_freq example with lcd. But the problem is with seven segment display.
Here is the code > But does not work.
I connected the port b pins b0 to b6 and
for cathode common i connected d7 d6 and d5.
I think it flashes and leaves very fast.
Please help me with this . If you can maybe put the timer func in a function .
thanks,

Hi, I found another Hitech code for frequency and seven segment display. Can someone help me convert this into ccs c for pic 16f877a. I really need help in doing this. I am also trying myself for last few days. Thanks
This is for Hi-tech.

Your style of asking questions is wrong. Don't post non-CCS code and
ask us to fix it, and don't go to every tachometer thread and ask for
7-segment code.
Start by posting the manufacturer and part number of your 7-segment
display module. If you have a schematic, then post a link to it.
If you don't have a 7-segment display, then tell us that. If you need help
to choose the correct parts to buy, then tell us.
If this is a Proteus simulator project and you don't intend to buy any
hardware, then tell us that. |

sorry for posting h-tech code.
but i posted it as an work example written in hitech. I will not post any other code than ccs-c .
i want a simple frequency meter with seven segment display for ccs-c . |

Two things that need to be known:
1. Has the HiTech code you posted been verified work on YOUR
hardware? If not, converting it may not do any good.
2. You need to answer PCMs questions:

I don't think anyone here is going to translate your HiTech code for you but
we can help you get your new CCS code debugged once you write it.
You STILL have not answered PCMs questions!!!

Hello Stock2. All that you need do is declare an array of the digits 0 - 9 for example
| Code: | char dig_map[10] = {3f, 0x06,0x5b,4f.............0x6f};
|
then
| Code: |
void display(){
portb = dig_map[hundred];// display hundredth digit
porta = 4;
portb = dig_map[tens];// display tenth digit
porta = 2;
portb = dig_map[one];// display unit digit
porta = 1;
} |
You will need to call this function in one of the timers interrupt routine. The interrupt should occur every 5 milliseconds. I have written a complete code to display speedometer in my car and it works great. |
