4x4 Matrix Key-board Interfacing with ATmega32


Hi guys,
Here is a project for beginners to interface a 16-key (4x4) keypad with ATmega32 using 8-pins i.e. one port of the microcontroller. This is useful particularly where we need more keys but don't want to spend more uC pins for interfacing.
The 4x4 keypad is a standard one available in the market. I've used here one from my earlier project. The LED shown in the schematic is just extra, which can be used anyway you like.
Here, the mega32 reads the code of key pressed and sends relevant character to display on LCD 2nd line. The first line displays 'WELCOME' all the time.

The figure below shows ISIS Proteus Simulation of this code:

Source Code (AVR-GCC, winAVR, AVRStudio format)
Proteus Simulation model
Source Code (CodeVision AVR format)
Source Code with 4-bit LCD Implementation (ICCAVR)
Source Code (ICCAVR) with Schematic on Google Docs

 
Thanks!

I have tried to run the exact code on atmega 16 after making the header file alterations..but it doesn't work...can u help?

CC Dharmani said...

Hi Rahul,

which compiler r u using? Can u send me your code on ccd@dharmanitech.com, I'll just have a look and send you back with corrections, if any required.

Regards.

i already compile it with avr studio(gcc-compiler).i choose avr 32 simulator but when i try to run it, there are lot of errors.
are you sure this code has no error when you compile it because when i run it,the errors show that PORT A,PORT B,PORT C,PORT D,MCUCR and TIMSK are undeclared.

and can i try your code on avr butterfly (ATmega 169)?

CC Dharmani said...

Hi, the errors are due to the compiler change. I've written the code in ICCAVR, but you are compiling it with AVRStudio.
You have to change the header files and certain other lines in the code to match AVRStudio (winAVR) compiler.
Try it out, if it doesn't work write to me, I'll send you the converted file for AVRStudio.

i already try it but i still got an error.can you send me the converted code so i can compile it with AVRStudio..

1 more question
can i modified your circuit?
what i mean is can i using another microcontroller?.i want to use AVR Butterfly(ATmega 169) instead of ATmega 32 that you using now.

rishabh said...

sir,i'm trying to drive a 16 segment alphanumeric display with 4*4 keypad and 89s52 muci.
can you please explain the connections of keyboard with 8952.
moreover can the programming be done in such a way to have all 27 alphabets and 10 numbers using two digit input in the 4*4 matrix keyboard. that would be of gr8 help.thanks
pls rep me at- alwaysrish@gmail.com

nyet said...

what is the output range of lcd?

CC Dharmani said...

Hi I didn't get it! The input voltage level of the LCD is normally 5v. The number of characters depend on size, can be 8x1, 16x1, 16x2, 20x2 etc..

What exactly is the question?

rishabh said...

really srry !!!
i'm basically trying to rig up some led's in form of a 16 segment display...and interfacing it using 4*4 keypad with 89s52.4*4 keypad can accomodate only hexa characters till 'f'.i want to program it till 'z'.

CC Dharmani said...

Hi rishabh,
you can have each key with multiple characters, just like the way it's done in cellphones. Pressing the same key again would display next character. You can assign each key with 4 characters, as per the key order in cellphone keypads. There you can display all the alphabets, numbers plus some extra characters!

Hi.
I have ru your code on 8-bit LCD , and there it is working fine, but I want the same code to work on 4-bit LCD..
if u have that code , can u please give it to me..............

CC Dharmani said...

Hi Abhijit, I've sent you the code modified for 4-bit LCD data. Test it out.

thanks a bunch man, i'm really appreaciate it...

I'll learn a lot, as I promised...

once again, thank you...

CC Dharmani said...

Hi,
I've sent you the code in CodeVision AVR format on your mail id. Check it out.

shanmu said...

Hi
All your posts were very much useful to me. I am working with AVR controllers for the past 2 months. I have successfully completed the 8bit LCDHD44870 display, But I am not getting the result with 4bit mode. Can you provide me some example codes, and some explanation regarding the same. I am working with AVR studio 4. Looking out for your help

Thanks and regards
shanmu

CC Dharmani said...

Hi Shanmu, put up your mail id in the comments or mail me at ccd@dharmanitech.com, I'll send you the 4-bit LCD functions, you can directly use them.

Hi, how can you help me. I need to design a circuit that will make use of a 4 by 4 matrix keypad, and LCD & a 8051 microcontroller. The result should be that whatever number(1-0) i press on the keypad should be displayed on the LCD. Thanks

Hello Dharmani,

I have tried to build simple temperature controller with AVR, this is my project, but failed. The AVR based controller with keypad and LCD display, I'll give a teperature limit, lower and higher through keypad. A sensor (LM35) connected to port measures temp and controller compare with the range and will give me warning..those are whole bunch of task my comtroller will do..pls help me with schematic and code in C.
Thanks for now.

Regards.

Hi,

The above code of keypad works fine,but if i want to use different port pins of different ports ,say for rows 2,3,4,5 of Port A & columns 2,3,4,5 of Port B what changes are needed in the code
