Thermometer using DS1621 and Nokia 3310 LCD interfaced with ATmega8

Hi friends,
in my last post I had discussed Nokia 3310 LCD interfacing with AVR ATmega8. It's really fun to work with this LCD.
Now, here I'm presenting one application with the same LCD: Designing a thermometer using DS1621 temperature sensor IC. DS1621 is 8-pin sensor from Maxim, with temp range of -55 to +125 degree C, which can be interfaced with microcontroller over two-wire serial i2c bus. It has operating voltage range from 2.7 to 5.5v. I'm operating it here at 3.3v, same as the one driving the LCD and ATmega8. DS1621 doesn't require any external components to measure temperature. It has got continuous or one-shot temperature reading capability to save power.
Check out the schematic:
I'm using here LM317 for getting 3.3v supply, any 3.3v rgulator can be used to replace it. The LED is only for checking the health of the circuit incase nothing comes up on display. The circuit is programmed to update temperature appx. every second.

I've taken help of LFG application for generating different sizes of fonts for the LCD, thanks o the author M.Ebrahimy. The application can be downloaded from here:
LCD Font Generator

I've created library functions for DS1621 interface with AVR using ICCAVR compiler. This functions can be used with i2c base routines discussed in my earlier posts. If anyone wants this libraries, just put it up in the comments!!

Download HEX file
Download Nokia 3310 LCD routines library (link to AVRfreaks post, where I've put it up. Write a comment or mail me if you have any problem in downloading this library, I'll send it by mail)

(Do you wanna use this HEX file but don't want my name on the display?? Well, just learn how to play with hex file from intel HEX-file tutorial, find ascii characters of my name in the hex file and replace them with yours!! It's little bit of a mind-game!!)

Download Datasheets:
1. DS1621
2. ATmega8

Thanks!!
