I'm using Hi-tech PicC-lite compiler,it comes with some sample C codes.The routines in LCD.c work quite fine for 16F84 but when I change to 16F877 with the same pin connections nothing promts on LCD. The code is below....
Thanx in advance...
/*
* LCD interface header file
* See lcd.c for more info
*/
/* write a byte to the LCD in 4 bit mode */
extern void lcd_write(unsigned char);
/* Clear and home the LCD */
extern void lcd_clear(void);
/* write a string of characters to the LCD */
extern void lcd_puts(const char * s);
/* Go to the specified position */
extern void lcd_goto(unsigned char pos);
/* intialize the LCD - call before anything else */
extern void lcd_init(void);
extern void lcd_putch(char);
/* Set the cursor position */
#define lcd_cursor(x) lcd_write(((x)&0x7F)|0x80)
LCD.C
/*
* LCD interface example
* Uses routines from delay.c
* This code will interface to a standard LCD controller
* like the Hitachi HD44780. It uses it in 4 bit mode, with
* the hardware connected as follows (the standard 14 pin
* LCD connector is used):
*
* PORTB bits 0-3 are connected to the LCD data bits 4-7 (high nibble)
* PORTA bit 2 is connected to the LCD RS input (register select)
* PORTA bit 3 is connected to the LCD EN bit (enable)
*
* To use these routines, set up the port I/O (TRISA, TRISB) then
* call lcd_init(), then other routines as required.
