Hello everyone!!!
interfacing a 4*4 keypad is a really difficult way to take input on micro controller BUT there is a very easy method to interface 4*4 keypad which does not require anything but a single encoder MM74C922.
SCHEMATIC:
MM74C922:
Many of us don't know about this IC what actually is the function of this chip?
It is the CMOS based IC which is capable of encoding an array of SPST (single pole single throw) switches key bouncing can also be reduced by using capacitor on key bounce pin ..
this IC encode the 8 bit code into 4 bit and send it to micro controller.
CODE:
Most of our work is done by MM74C922 now we just have to check what binary is being generated by pressing the keys on keypad.
For Example :
- If we press '7' on keypad '0000' will occur on output port.
- If we press '4' on keypad '0001' will occur on output port.
If we press '1' on keypad '0010' will occur on output port.
now we know what the user want to write by checking the binary output.
If we want to write the number on LCD which is being pressed
