This is another PIC project that shows how to interface PIC18F46K22 microcontroller with Nokia 5110 (Nokia 3310) LCD and how to use its library.
In this project the Nokia 5110 LCD (84 x 48 pixel) is used to display temperature (in degree Celsius, °C) and humidity (in relative humidity percent, rH%) where DHT22 (equivalent to AM2302) digital humidity and temperature sensor is used.
MikroC PRO for PIC compiler is used in this project.

PIC18F46K22 with DHT22 sensor and Nokia 5110 LCD circuit:
The following image shows project circuit diagram.
The DHT22 sensor has 4 pins (from left to right):
Pin 1 is power supply pin, connected to circuit +5V,
Pin 2: data output pin, connected to PIC18F46K22 pin RB0 (#33),
Pin 3: not connected pin,
Pin 4: GND (ground), connected to circuit ground.
The 4.7k ohm resistor is needed because the DHT22 output is open drain.
All the grounded terminals are connected together.
The Nokia 5110 which is shown in the circuit diagram has 8 pins (from left to right): RST (reset), CE (chip enable), DC (or D/C: data/command), Din (data in), Clk (clock), VCC (3.3V), BL (back light) and Gnd (ground).
The Nokia 5110 LCD works with 3.3V only (power supply and control lines). The LCD module is supplied with 3.3V which comes from the AMS1117 3V3 voltage regulator, this regulator steps down the 5V into 3.3V (supplies the LCD controller PCD8544 with regulated 3V3).
All PIC18F46K22 microcontroller output pins are 5V, connecting a 5V pin directly to the Nokia 5110 LCD may damage its controller circuit!
To connect the PIC18F46K22 to the LCD module, I used voltage divider for each line. That means there are 5 voltage dividers. Each voltage divider consists of 2.2k and 3.3k resistors, this drops the 5V into 3V which is sufficient.
So, the Nokia 5110 LCD pins are connected to PIC18F46K22 MCU as follows (each one through voltage divider):
RST (reset) pin is connected to pin RD0 (#19)
CE (chip enable) pin is connected to pin RD1 (#20)
DC (data/command) pin is connected to pin RD2 (#21)
DIN (data in) pin is connected to pin RD3 (#22)
CLK (clock) pin is connected to pin RD4 (#27)
VCC and BL are connected to AMS1117 3V3 regulator output pin and GND is connected to circuit ground (0V).
In this project the PIC18F46K22 microcontroller runs with its internal oscillator @ 16 MHz, MCLR pin is configured as an input pin.
PIC18F46K22 with DHT22 sensor and Nokia 5110 LCD C code:
The following C code is for mikroC PRO for PIC compiler, it was tested with version 7.2.0.
To be able to compile project C code, a driver for the Nokia 5110 LCD is required, download link is below. After you download the driver file which named NOKIA5110.C, add it to your project folder:
Nokia 5110 LCD library for mikroC compiler
The connection of the LCD pins with the microcontroller are defined in the C code as shown below:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | // Nokia 5110 LCD module connections // use software SPI #define LCD_RST RD0_bit // reset pin, optional! #define LCD_CS RD1_bit // chip select pin, optional! #define LCD_DC RD2_bit // data/command pin #define LCD_DAT RD3_bit // data-in pin (MOSI) #define LCD_CLK RD4_bit // clock pin // end LCD module connections |
And the DHT22 data pin is defined as:
1 2 3 | // DHT22 pin connection (here data pin is connected to pin RB0) #define DHT22_PIN RB0_bit #define DHT22_PIN_DIR TRISB0_bit |
Functions used in the code:
void Start_Signal(void): sends start signal to the DHT22 sensor.
char Check_Response(): checks response signal of the DHT22 sensor (after sending the start signal using the previous function), returns 1 if OK and 0 if error.
void Read_Data(unsigned short* dht_data): reads 1 byte from the DHT22 sensor which is saved to the variable dht_data.
If there is a problem with the DHT22 sensor (for example bad connection) the display will display Sensor (instead of the temperature value) Error! (instead of the humidity value), and if there is a check sum error (for example due to wrong data reading) the display will display Checksum (instead of the temperature value) Error! (instead of the humidity value).
Timer0 module is used to measure pulse widths (high and low), it’s configured to work as 8-bit timer/counter and prescaler = 4 (increment by 1 every 1 microsecond ==> clock input = 1MHz).
Timer0 clock input = Fosc/(4 x prescaler) = 16MHz/(4 x 4) = 1MHz.
Rest of code is described through comments.
