    I’m doing ADC with PIC 18F46K22, 16×2 lcd, LM3 temperature sensor, 20 MHz oscillator, MPLAB XC8 and PicKit3 programmer. I can do the generate the hex file and simulate it on Proteus and it works fine, but on hardware it doesn’t work. The LCD is switched on, but doesn’t display the analog value.

    I wrote a small program to switch the led on off with delay and write something on the LCD on off with delay and this works on Proteus and hardware.

    Please assist

    It is very difficult to analyse the problem with above details. Kindly attach a photo of your LCD and the program you are using.

    Find attached is my adc code and proteus simulation file.

    I’m struggling to send the proteus file.

    Hi..in my case I found that the microcontroller is powered by +5V. I had to change the Power Rail Voltage to +3.3V.
    I changed the voltage from the “Design->Configure Power rails” menu entry. From the drop down list, I picked VCC/VDD and changed the voltage from 5 to 3.3. Now it works correctly.

    Thank the hardware is working. I had to modify the codes.

    I am with LM35, LCD 16*2, and 16F877A. I want to use different value (read temperature and reference temperature) of the temperature to on or off the two LED. The code is only controlling one LED RD0.

    I have rectified the problem, the design is now working . I changed to
    RD0_bit = 0;
    RD1_bit =0 ; to TRISD = 0;

    I mean changing RD1_bit = 0; to TRISD = ;
