 2.3.6. Writing multi character on 8 x 7 segmen

In this lesson, we are going to drive more 7 segmen, in this way you can write eight character or number on multi 7 segmen. We used a multiplexing methode to transfer data for driver transistor consequtively.

Figure 2.3.5. Driving on Multi 7 Segmen

Step 1st
Build the circuit as shown in figure 2.3.5. As you seen on figure 2.3.5. P2.0 trough P2.7 is connected to driver transistor, and all eight 7 segment is connected to P0.0 trough P0.6 parallelly. Remember, that all we want to do with this lesson is write multi number ( 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 ) to 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th 7 segmen each.

Step 2nd
In this step, you must tipe the assembly program to make your 7 segmen shown some number on 7 segmen, we assume that you have already known the editor, we used MIDE-51 to edit the program. ( Download File : exp236.zip , Download Complete Circuit File : Sevensegmen.PDF )

Step 3rd
Safe your assembly program above, and name it with 7seg4.asm (for example) Compile the program that you have been save by using MIDE-51, see the software instruction.

Step 4th
Download your hex file ( 7seg4.hex ) into the microcontroller by using Microcontroller ATMEL ISP software, see the instruction.After download this hex file you'll see the action of the 7 segmen( of course if your cable connection and your program are corrected ).
