Led Matrix (6x5) with 8051 microcontroller.....

         Hi  !  Be ready to learn something new...

        This time i will show you something cool & some what difficult to make.Now basically LED Matrix is used as Display as shown in below pictures to display numbers,alphabets & sometime images also.

                 As you can see above that they are available in RGB and Monochromatic.Ya it is very difficult task for beginner to make LED matrix with RGB LED's.

                So, we'll start with white or red LED's whichever you like.But keep in mind that RED will look great in day as well as night white will not look that good. Believe me i made that mistake !!

               First of all we need to make LED matrix.Well it best that you start with small matrix like 6x5 .So you will need 30+ LED's.Now here's tricky part that is connection of these LED's.Oh let me tell you that if you dont know how to program 8051 then you must make 6x5 matrix cause code provided here by me is for 6x5 matrix so keep in mind that while making it.We need some trick to connect these LED's well see the schematic below,

          Here are some images which is taken from my LED matrix....

         This images is taken for only alphabets L & K.Here I have uploaded the 'C'-code for Capital alphabets.In this program in main function we have to enter the word which we are going to print on LED matrix.Oh and since this code is only made for CAPITAL alphabets so its doesn't matter that you input in capital or small alphabets.
        So, main function will take string you enters and pass it to the function name and this(name) function will print strings alphabets one by one after some delay which is set in function name.
        Upload this code with the help of Software coil and don't forget to read code carefully before you upload it which is necessary because you will have to give output of the ports to the matrix...

     See this images to see how matrix is created & basic logic behind it..

     So,see you soon with some new project & keep visiting my blog....
